it is detected 3minutes after you urinate on the test stick..... if it takes any longer than 4minutes then the test is not reliable as it could be faulty... the pregnancy hormone detected on a test will then last/stay on the test for how ever long you keep the test!
Sometimes there is not enough HCG, the pregnancy hormone in your urine when you first test it. After two more weeks, if you are pregnant, the hormone will probably be detected at that time because it will have increased in concentration.
no it doesnt matter how feint - the line indicates that the test has detected HGC (pregnancy hormone) in you urine therefore you are pregnant! The line gets stronger as time goes on in a healthy pregnancy
Pregnancy can also be detected through a blood test
A hormone pregnancy test, typically a urine test, is a common way to confirm pregnancy. There are other ways, as well, and a hormone test is not the only approach.
It is possible to miss a period, be pregnant, and have a negative pregnancy test. In the early stages of pregnancy, the levels of beta HCG hormone (the hormone of pregnancy) is too low to be detected. Other possibilities include hormonal imbalance and ovarian disorder. Repeating the pregnancy test in another week or two may help sort things out.
YES! You should go to a doctor. The pregnancy test showed up positive because it detected the hormone that says your pregnant..
A beta hcg is a blood test given in early pregnancy to measure the quantity or amount of hcg, the pregnancy hormone. This test can be done as early as a week after ovulation, even before a positive hpt. The result or number of hcg detected will vary from woman to woman and pregnancy to pregnancy.
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a hormone present in the blood within about a week of conception. It is the hormone detected in a blood or urine pregnancy test, but it usually takes three to four weeks for levels of hCG to be high enough to be detected by home pregnancy tests. It is secreted by cells that develop into the placenta.
No. The pregnancy test is only effected by hCG (the pregnancy hormone).
Im guessing you meant tubes. Sometimes a tubular pregnancy can bet detected through a home pregnancy test. But due to the possibility of lower levels of hormone with ectopic pregnancy it is possible to have a home test show that you are not pregnant while you have an EP. So if you are concerned you may have that issue i would contact your dr or go to the ER
Pregnancy tests look for a hormone that is secreted by an implanted egg called hCG. It can only be detected if you are pregnant. If a pregnancy test is positive, it is best to follow-up with a provider for confirmation, but a negative result would not be due to a UTI.
Pregnancy hormone likely would have been detected by this time, but due to varying sensitivities of different pregnancy tests, you could certainly be pregnant. It would be wise to try several types of home tests. The first urine of the morning has the highest concentration of pregnancy hormone. You could always go to your doctor and have a blood test to be certain.
