Is the test pregnancy accurate?


Restoring balance, one patient at a time.
Test paper pregnancy test is accurate to a certain extent, but its accuracy is affected by test paper quality, detection time, urine retention and other factors.
1, test paper quality
test paper quality directly affects the accuracy of test results. If the test paper expires, damp or contaminated, it may lead to deviation of test results.
2, detection time
Test time is also an important factor affecting accuracy. Generally speaking, pregnancy can be detected by test paper about ten days after cohabitation, but HCG levels may not be very high at this time, so false negatives are prone to occur. If the test is performed fourteen days or more after cohabitation, the accuracy rate will be relatively high.
3, urine retention test
paper test needs to take urine samples, if urine retention is improper, such as too much or too little urine, urine is diluted, etc., may affect the accuracy of test results.
In order to improve the accuracy, you need to choose a regular brand of test paper, pay attention to the test time and urine retention method, and can be tested many times.
