What time in the morning to take a test?
The best time to take a pregnancy test in the morning is right before you first urinate. This will give you the most accurate results by allowing the pregnancy hormone to accumulate therefore be easier to detect by the test.
How long is the pregnancy hormone detected on a test?
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!
How do you care for oysters?

If you urinate a lot does it mean that you are pregnant?
yes, if you urinate more that 4 times a day, you should see your doctor and/ or get a pregnancy test! :P
Is frequency to urinate normal during pregnancy?
Yes, especially in the later stages of pregnancy, when there is pressure from the enlarging uterus on the bladder.
Can having ureaplasma urealyticum during pregnancy make you not urinate?
It cannot. Nothing can.
How long can you keep urine in room temperature before home pregnancy test?
I´d use fresh urine as the hormones may have dwindled and the test may not be reliable now.
Can drinking an energy drink give you a false negative on a pregnancy test?
Caffeine itself will not alter the results of a pregnancy test. However, caffeine is a diuretic, which can dilute the urine. This may make it more difficult for a urine-dependent pregnancy test to detect the pregnancy hormones. For the most accurate results, perform a pregnancy test when you first urinate in the morning. Your urine will be most concentrated at that point in the day and the test will be more accurate.
Can soap affect your pregnancy test?
No. But for best results when taking an at-home pregnancy test: * Take the test in the morning, if possible, because your hCG (pregnancy hormone) levels are at it's highest * Don't drink a bunch of fluids before taking the test because it will dilute your urine and can affect the results * Take the test no more than 1-2 days before expected period. Although some test say that you can see results up to 5 days before your missed period the percentage of accuracy is very low. * urinate for as long as possible on the foam like strip * wait for the results
Do you have to wait till first thing in the am to take a pregnancy test?
If you want the most accurate results, yes. The reason is because your hCG (pregnancy hormone) levels are at their highest in the morning. Also for best results: * Don't drink a bunch of fluids before taking the test because it will dilute your urine and can affect the results * Take the test no more than 1 day before expected period. Although some test say that you can see results up to 5 days before your missed period, the percentage of accuracy is very low. * urinate for as long as possible on the foam-like strip * Check the results in the window frame of time suggested by the instructions of the pregnancy test.
How early can you take a urine pregnancy test?
To ensure the best results: * Take the test in the morning, if possible, because your hCG (pregnancy hormone) levels are at it's highest * Don't drink a bunch of fluids before taking the test because it will dilute your urine and can affect the results * Take the test no more than 1 day before expected period.

It's been a month since the last period. Should you be worried?
Go buy a pregnancy test at Wal-Mart. Urinate on the stick and find out your results within minutes. Don't be doing foolish unprotected sex. There are enough unwanted babies.
