Preparing for pregnancy is a magical thing. Once you have this idea, you can't wait for the little angel to come into your belly and grow up with the expectant mother. Unable to wait, there are probably some women who are preparing for pregnancy and want to confirm the results as soon as possible. Can a pregnancy test be done at 3am?
A pregnancy test can be conducted at 3am. But the accuracy of pregnancy test results is not as accurate as morning urination around 7am. Generally speaking, the preparation for morning urination can reach 95%. And the pregnancy test at 3am is far from reaching this value. What is the reason for the deviation in the results. Let's take a look at the principle of pregnancy testing together, maybe we'll suddenly understand.
The main principle of pregnancy testing is to check the concentration of human chorionic gonadotropin in urine, which is generally between 0-5mIU/ml or 0-7mIU/ml, and generally does not exceed 10mIU/ml. If the concentration exceeds 10mIU/ml, it is considered pregnancy, and the concentration is accumulated. If tested at 3am, the accuracy of the concentration may not be as high as that of morning urine.
Morning urine is accumulated overnight, and the concentration of chorionic gonadotropin in pregnant women is higher than usual, resulting in a higher accuracy coefficient. After analysis, it is easy to understand why a pregnancy test at 3am is possible, but it is more recommended to use morning urine for pregnancy testing.
The main purpose is to ensure higher accuracy of the results, and it is recommended that expectant mothers do not need to rush and follow scientific methods to choose morning urine for pregnancy testing. We also wish everyone a good pregnancy.
