Your home pregnancy test will usually not display a positive result until a day or two after your expected period (not a large enough hormone level in your body to be detected). You may just be stressing yourself out (that is why you are not sleeping/depressed). Best of luck to you.
With my first pregnancy I took a hpt 3 days after my period was suposed to come and it was positive, but with this pregnancy the hpt's didn't show up positive until my SECOND period was a week late. Everyone is different. :)
Yes, but this method is not accurate until at least two weeks after conception. Alternative methods are through blood tests, home pregnancy tests (which also uses your urine stream), and a less accurate way would be through symptoms. If pregnancy is not suspected but a doctor does an ultrasound,X-ray, etc, this can detect pregnancy as well but this won't be done to determine pregnancy alone.
There is a home testing system that claims it can tell you dates, just like a pee stick test with a digital screen. It has just been released in Australia and sais all pharmacy's and supermarkets will soon be stocking it. But im sorry I cant for the life of me remember what it was called there are often adds for it on the TV.
usually a urine test can be taken about 5 days before your missed period.
they worked and were right all four times for me...
recently there has been a new test released that tells you, I think it is a clearblue test, but im not sure, it is possible though :)
hcg quant will give an estimated range
No, clear urine is a sign that you are drinking plenty of fluids, which is a good thing. Take a store pregnancy test after your missed period to confirm a pregnancy.
They take a blood test so they can see what your hcg levels are. Your levels get higher the farther along you are. A blood test can determine pregnancy alot sooner than a urine test and is also more accurate.
Pregnancy tests measure the level of hcg in your body. When you are pregnant, and as your pregnancy progresses, your hcg level rises. When you take a urine pregnancy test and it comes back negative, the level of hcg is not high enough to register on the test. When the quantitative serum pregnancy test is positive, it is a more acurate reading of how far along in your pregnancy you actually are.
If you take a urine pregnancy test the very next day you and your partner had unprotected sex, the reading will not at all be accurate, as it would have been better to wait for 14 days to take a urine pregnancy test to get a accurate reading.
when in doubt, assume you are pregnant. then take a urine pregnancy test, and if that is negative. then you can also check by getting a blood pregnancy test.
YES. If water intake is less or there is nausea and vomiting of early pregnancy, there may dehydration, leading to concentrated urine. So along with Anti emetic drugs your Gynecologist may give you can take salted water 3 to 4 grams/ liter and fruit juices(To replace body Potassium salts.)
It depends how far along you were. Could take a few days to leave your system, could take a month.
Could be just a simple urinary tract infection depends on other symptom and level of protein in your urine. If its a urinary tract infection, it is recommended for you to take antibiotics for it.
By "it" if you mean sex, no. Conception can take up to 5-7 days after intercourse. The best time to take a pregnancy test is about 1-2 days before your expected period with your morning urine. Don't drink fluids to make yourself urinate! This will cause your urine to be diluted and can give you a false negative if you are pregnant!
Pregnancy tests that detect HCG in the urine are not effected by age. HCG will be present in the urine during pregnancy at all ages. When in doubt, take another test or have a blood test done by a doctor (or public clinic). Missed or irregular periods are a part of menopause, which typically occurs at around age 50. Nurse Z
Wait at least two weeks. HCG levels in IVF pregnancy's tend to take a little longer to register.
Yes you should take a blood test. It is more accurate & can be taken sooner than a urine test.
