  Frequently asked questions
What is a midstream pregnancy test kit?
A midstream pregnancy test kit is used to confirm pregnancy. Instead of collecting urine in a cup or using a dropper, you simply hold the stick directly in your urine stream. The kit detects the presence of hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin), a hormone produced during early pregnancy and shows results with up to 99% accuracy in just 3 minutes.
What is a pregnancy kit used for?
A pregnancy test kit is used to detect the human gonadotropin hormone in the body, which is produced around 6 days after fertilisation. The test confirms with rapid accuracy if a woman is pregnant or not.
How to test pregnancy at home?
Remove the cap and hold the absorbent tip of the test stick in your urine stream for 5–10 seconds. Place it flat and wait 3 minutes.
Two lines = Pregnant
One line at C = Not Pregnant
No line or only at T = Invalid — retest with a new kit.
When should I do a pregnancy test?
For reliable results, take the test a few days after your missed period. If your cycle is irregular or you’re unsure, test at least 21 days after unprotected intercourse.
Is a pregnancy test accurate if it is taken before a period?
While some early tests claim to detect pregnancy before your missed period, results may be less accurate. For best results, use the midstream test after a missed period when hCG levels are higher.

What are the signs and symptoms of pregnancy?

How to differentiate between PMS and pregnancy symptoms?
It can get confusing to differentiate between symptoms of pregnancy and PMS as they often overlap like nausea, bloating, mood swings, fatigue and breast pain. However, with pregnancy, women experience bright red spotting, nipple changes, morning sickness and missed periods. It is advised to observe the different symptoms and take a home pregnancy test to confirm after a missed period.
