When women suspect they are pregnant, they will buy pregnancy test strips for testing, which is currently the most convenient method of pregnancy testing. If the pregnancy test strip shows two red lines after use, it means that the woman is pregnant, while one red line indicates that she is not pregnant. So, is it accurate to use pregnancy test strips to determine pregnancy?
The accuracy of using pregnancy test strips to detect pregnancy is relatively high, but the prerequisite is correct use. Nowadays, the accuracy rate of using pregnancy test strips is 50% -98%. The reason why sometimes the accuracy rate is only half is because some women use them incorrectly, which can reduce the accuracy of pregnancy test strips and result in inaccurate results.
Women must carefully read the instructions when using pregnancy test strips, and then use them according to the instructions. In fact, the usage method is very simple. As long as you carefully read the manual, you can use it correctly. In addition, pregnancy test strips should be used in the morning because the HCG value in morning urine is relatively high, resulting in more accurate results.
If the pregnancy test strip shows that the woman is pregnant, she needs to go to the hospital for a diagnostic examination. Because pregnancy test strips may also have errors, it is necessary to go to the hospital for medical examination. Female friends can undergo blood tests or ultrasound examinations to accurately determine whether a woman is pregnant.
