Pregnancy Testing
When you need an answer quickly, we are here for you. We offer a free pregnancy test that checks for the presence of hCG, the hormone that indicates if you are pregnant. The test is the same as that used in many doctors’ offices. It can detect pregnancy just 3 to 4 days after the egg is fertilized and has a 99% accuracy rate.
You might be pregnant if:
You have missed one or more menstrual periods
Your breasts are swollen and/or tender
You are nauseated or have had a change in appetite
You are tired or dizzy
You have to urinate more frequently
You have recently gained or lost weight
These signs and symptoms are not unique to pregnancy; also, you may be pregnant without experiencing any of these symptoms. It is important to receive a test.
FAQ
What about home pregnancy tests and false negatives?
Home pregnancy tests are designed to tell you if your urine contains a hormone called hCG. In some cases, you may get a false negative.
Why would someone get a false negative?
● Test has expired
● The test was taken incorrectly
● Testing too soon
● The urine is too diluted because of consuming too much liquid prior to taking the pregnancy test
● Certain medications; ie.; diuretics or antihistamines
