Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), a special type of hormone is produced during pregnancy in the toilet test sample which can be used to detect pregnancy. Some things should be kept in mind while using a pregnancy test. You can find HCG in your urine or blood. HCG takes time to form in your body. During the early days of pregnancy, your body will produce more HCG every day. As the weeks go by, your body will produce more and more HCG. Due to which the chances of pregnancy test coming positive will increase.
when to test
The amount of HCG in the body increases rapidly during the early days of pregnancy, doubling every 2-3 days. To increase the chance of accurate results, wait a day or two after your missed period to test.
accuracy
False negatives are possible, but unlikely, unless the swab is on the absorbent strip of the test. If you are concerned about a missed result, you can do another test. The timing of ovulation, irregular menstrual cycles, and when a fertilized egg implants can affect the accuracy of a pregnancy test.
