Product Information

The days (or weeks or months) of wondering if you are pregnant can feel like some of the longest of your life. There are a lot of emotions that come with anticipating pregnancy, and with good reason — your life may never be the same. The best time to take a pregnancy test is anytime your period is late or [you] have missed your period,” says Dr. Swarup. The ideal time of the day to take your pregnancy test is in the morning, when the pregnancy hormone, hCG, is at its highest concentration, and a test can detect it more easily. With something as vital as your family planning at stake, we know that recommending the best and easiest to use pregnancy tests is important. So we started our search on BabyCenter's Community, where expecting, trying to conceive (a.k.a. "TTC"), and new moms and dads trade recommendations on the pregnancy tests that worked for them, as well as those that fell short. If you’re keen to test early, but don’t want to leave yourself squinting into the sunlight or editing photos of your pregnancy tests to see if that line is solely in your imagination, the Clearblue Digital Early Detection Pregnancy test can make the testing experience a whole lot simpler. Unlike dye-based tests that require looking out for a line or cross in the results window, these tests use digital technology instead.

It’s worth remembering, that whilst all home pregnancy tests vary in terms of sensitivity and method of use, they are generally accurate so long as they are used correctly. You may also find some reviewers stating they have experienced false positives or negatives. This could be due to a variety of reasons, but it's important to read the instructions before you take the test to ensure you're using it properly and at the right time. Why you should trust us The consensus from healthcare professionals across the board was that it doesn’t really matter what home pregnancy test you use — they all work more or less the same way, it just depends on your preferences. One common complaint with pregnancy tests is that they can be confusing to read — how many lines mean positive again? Is that a second line or just a reflection?You get results in three minutes and with First Response's new EasyRead app, you can scan and confirm your test to see the words “pregnant” or “not pregnant" if the lines aren't crystal clear to you, or you feel unsure about your results. Prescriptions must be written on an Authority Prescription Form, and the approval number must be noted on the prescription. Pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has been approved by Medicare Australia (indicated by the presence of the approval number). The accuracy of the test becomes 99 percent once you have passed the day of your missed period,” Dr. Roelands explains. While some tests say they can work as early as 10 days after unprotected sex, the results aren't very reliable and may not be accurate. "It is better to wait so you do not get discouraged about the results," says Dr. Roelands.

I have had very good experiences with the Easy@Home tests. No evaps, and a line as dark as the control line when my period was due." Digital or line results? - Most home pregnancy tests will display a second line (either a cross or a line in the test area) if hCG is detected. Some more expensive pregnancy tests have a digital display to indicate whether you are pregnant or not. The Clearblue Pregnancy Test With Weeks Indicator even estimates how many weeks along you are. Some drugs may have Authority Required (Streamlined) status which does not require an explicit approval from Medicare, instead the doctor can use the Authority code found in the published Schedule for a given drug/indication. There’s nothing quite as anxiety inducing as that three- to five-minute wait while taking a pregnancy test. Regardless if it’s positive or negative (and whichever one you're hoping for), one thing remains the same: You want to trust the results you see. In the largest study of over-the-counter pregnancy tests to date, First Response proved to be 97 percent accurate from the day of your missed period for both its digital and manual line tests.Non-digital pregnancy tests: These pregnancy tests show your results in the form of blue or pink lines. Although they tend to be more affordable, they can also be more difficult to decipher if one of the lines is faint. If that’s the case, wait a day or two to take the test again. Test strips will have either two parallel lines like the Wondfo Fertility Combination Testsor a plus sign to indicate a positive pregnancy result. Negative results are usually indicated by one vertical line (instead of two lines) or a negative sign (instead of a plus sign). It is important that you thoroughly read the instructions to understand how to interpret the test. In addition, be sure to read the pregnancy test within the designated time frame to avoid false results due to evaporation lines. Pregnancy test results are much more accurate if taken once you've missed your period, with most brands estimating about 99 percent accuracy. If you take a test before then, the range might only be around 70 to 75 percent, or even lower in some cases. False positives are rare, but according to Dr. Roelands, some factors that may cause one include testing too early, fertility mediciations that contain hCG or miscarriage. It's also important to note that a chemical pregnancy (which is when an egg implants in the uterine wall but isn't able to develop) or an ectopic pregnancy (when the egg develops outside the uterus) may also lead to positive tests, even if the pregnancy isn't viable.Again, false positives are unusual, but to be absolutely certain, you should schedule an appointment with your OB/GYN following a positive at-home pregnancy test for confirmation.
