It is better to take the test in the morning as hcg is higher in the body. But at a later stage of the pregnancy, say 2 months, a test taken at any time during the day will be accurate.

Does it matter what time of day in take a pregnancy test?

Preferably It is best in the morning. The HCG count is higher in the morning with your first pee.


What is an inconclusive pregnancy test?

An inconclusive test usually means the test was run too early, the hCG level is elevated but not high enough to confirm a pregnancy. In a normal pregnancy, waiting three days and rerunning the test should provide sufficient time for the hormone rise to be conclusive for pregnancy or the lack of growth to insure there is no pregnancy.


What is the right urine temp for home pregnancy test?

You want to urinate directly on the pregnancy test strip. If you are using urine that has been sitting for a while, it isn't the temperature to be concerned about, as much as the length of time it has been sitting there. The amount of hCG concentrated in the urine decreases as it sits. So it is best to use fresh urine every time.


If you take a pregnancy test and its positive and the next 3 are negative but the next day take 4 more and the first one is positive and the rest are negative what are the chances of being pregnant?

A negative test could also be the result of a phantom pregnancy. A phantom pregnancy is where you basically fool your mind and body into thinking it is pregnant. You will still experience pregnancy symptoms but you are not actually pregnant; it is al psychological Some women have even been able to lactate during a phantom pregnacny. The causes of a phantom pregnancy are either paranoia of being pregnant or having an extreme desire to become pregnant. There are several things that can contribute to a negative pregnancy test even if you are pregnant. Some medications can give you a false negative, the timing of the test can affect the results. If you did not follow directions properly; if you let the test sit for too long the results may read negative after a while. It is important to read the results within the amount of time given on the instructions of that particular pregnancy test you bought. If you did not perform the test properly (example: you drank a lot of fluids before taking the test, which can dilute your urine). Etc.On rare occasions you can encounter a false positive due to improper testing, expired pregnancy tests, rare medical conditions such as certain types of cancer, evaporation lines, a recent pregnancy or a chemical pregnancy.To ensure the best results: Take the test in the morning, if possible, because your hCG (pregnancy hormone) levels are at it's highest Don't drink a bunch of fluids before taking the test because it will dilute your urine and can affect the results Take the test no more than 1 day before expected period. Although some test say that you can see results up to 5 days before your missed period, the percentage of accuracy is very low. urinate for as long as possible on the foam-like strip Check the results in the window frame of time suggested by the instructions of the pregnancy test.


If you take a pregnancy test and it came out negative but took one again three days later and came out positive. could this mean im pregnant.?

Under laboratory conditions, home pregnancy tests are 99% accurate. There could be several reasons for a negative reading for one test while there is a positive reading for another test a few days later: 1) Sensitive home pregnancy tests can detect pregnancy 7-14 days after ovulation. It may be possible that the first test you took was too early to detect the hormone hCG (the hormone produced from a pregnancy). 2) The first test may have been taken incorrectly, such as not had enough urine to read correctly. For example, drinking high volumes of water can diminish test accuracy. First morning urine is considered the ideal time to take the test because it contains the most concentrated presence of the hormone hCG, or waiting several hours after last urinating. 3) This is least likely of the possibilities, but a false positive result. These are very rare. Sometimes the tissues in a non-pregnancy woman can produce hCG, but they are usually so low that a home pregnancy test can not detect them. The best way to know for sure if you are pregnant is to have your doctor run the test. It is more accurate than a home pregnancy test and he or she will be able to instruct you on what to do if it comes back positive. Good luck!
