How long can pregnancy be tested with a test paper

After pregnancy, the level of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) in the female body will gradually increase. Generally, a small amount of HCG will be produced after the fertilized egg is implanted, that is, after about 6 days of pregnancy, but the amount is small, and the test paper may not detect it. With the advancement of pregnancy, HCG levels will continue to rise. After 10-14 days of pregnancy, more accurate results can usually be obtained by test paper testing.

Different test paper sensitivity may vary. Some sensitive test papers may detect pregnancy relatively early, but they cannot guarantee 100% accuracy. In order to improve the accuracy of the test, you can wait a few days to test, or use different brands of test paper for multiple tests. In addition, the time and method of detection will also affect the results. It is recommended to use morning urine for testing, because the HCG concentration in morning urine is relatively high. The test should be carried out in strict accordance with the instructions of the test paper, to ensure that the operation is correct, otherwise false negative or false positive results may occur.

Even if the test paper detects pregnancy, it needs further /confirm/iation. You can go to the hospital for blood test HCG level, which is more accurate. In addition, ultrasound examination is also needed to determine the location and development of the gestational sac, excluding abnormal conditions such as ectopic pregnancy.

It should be noted that each person's physiological conditions are different, and the rising speed and level of HCG after pregnancy may also vary. If there are doubts about the test results, or abnormal symptoms such as abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, etc., you should seek medical advice and seek professional help.
