Period is late by a week and i dont want to rush to a lab just yet. Want to first check quietly at home before telling anyone. how reliable are the home kits and when in the day should i use it? im a little nervous tbh.
Just buy a urine test kit from any chemist, theyre cheap and easy. Use the first morning urine, dip or pour as the box says and wait a few minutes. Two lines means positive, do it after your missed period for accuracy.
I used a normal strip and just followed the instructions step by step. Morning urine works best. If you get a faint line, retest in a couple of days or confirm with a blood test.
When I was testing I was so nervous my hands were shaking haha. Morning urine and waiting those few minutes felt endless. Did anyone else get a faint line first and then clear later?
