Best Pregnancy Test Kit – Where to Buy Them in Singapore

Hoseh liao! Taking a pregnancy test can be exciting or it can also be nerve-wracking. And that positive or negative result means a lot!

There are several pregnancy test kits in the market, so how do you know which one will be the most accurate and the best?

And do you really have to spend a lot of money, or are the ones from the discount retailers just as good?

So how do pregnancy test kits work?

Pregnancy tests kits can detect the pregnancy hormone hCG (Human chorionic gonadotropin) in the urine. 

As your pregnancy develops, the levels of this hormone will increase. Usually, the concentration of hCG in a woman that is not pregnant 5mIU.

At the time of the missed menstruation period, the concentration will rise to about 100mIU. So when a test kit says that it has a sensitivity of 20mIU, that means it can detect pregnancy earlier than one with a sensitivity of 100mIU.

Which is more accurate in certain ways.

Although there are many early pregnancy test out there, which claim to give you an answer up to 6 days before your period is due, the advice from most doctors is to wait until the day after your period is due.

This is the period where you will be getting a more accurate result.

How soon can I take a pregnancy test?

Early pregnancy test kits can now be taken several days (6 Days) before your period is due.

Then again, the earlier you take, the less accurate the result will be. And it is also dependable on the type of pregnancy test kit you used.

And because different pregnancy test kit are most reliable at different times before your period, it is important that you read the instructions before using.
