HCG Pregnancy Urine Self Test Kit is a single use device, for qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) in urine specimen. The Test Kit provides private at-home HCG testing with fast and reliable result, and at a time when you needed to know the most.
A pregnant woman’s placenta produces HCG, also called the pregnancy hormone. If you’re pregnant, the test can usually detect this hormone in your urine about 10 days after your first missed period. HCG helps to keep your pregnancy going. It also affects the development of your baby. Levels of HCG go up fast in the first 14 to 16 weeks after your last menstrual period.
Drugs such as antihistamines, anti-anxiety medications, diuretics, anti-convulsants, anti-Parkinson drugs, hypnotics, and tranquilizers may cause false-positive results. The presence of protein in the urine, blood in the urine, or excess pituitary gonadotropin may also cause a false-positive urine HCG test. Generally, if results are questionable, you’d better ask your health provider for further information.
