I have those normal dipstick strips at home for other stuff. Just curious if those can show pregnancy or i need the proper kit only. Stupid question maybe but genuinely confused.
Haan, dipstick test can detect hCG in urine, but normal home kit easily available down the street is much better na? Just buy a regular kit for peace of mind.
A standard urine dipstick can detect hCG if it's designed for pregnancy, but mostly clinics use it to check for UTI or protein. For pregnancy, just use a proper digital or card test.
Honestly, don't waste time trying to figure out clinical dipsticks. Just order a standard home pregnancy kit on Blinkit, it takes 2 minutes and gives a clear yes or no.
I thought dipstick is mostly used for protein or sugar in urine? Are you trying to use it to confirm pregnancy, or did your doctor do it at the clinic?
I remember the absolute panic and excitement of waiting for that test. Whether you use a dipstick or a regular card, I truly hope you get the beautiful result you are waiting for.
When I was testing, I just used the normal Prega News card from the chemist. It's so much simpler and less messy than using random clinic dipsticks, trust me.
Yes, pregnancy dipsticks work on the same principle of detecting hormones. Just follow the instructions carefully and do it with morning pee for the best result!
