First time doing a home test and im honestly clueless about the proper way. Morning wala sample best hota hai kya, and how much is needed? Pls share so i dont mess it up.
Make sure you collect the mid-stream urine, which means let the first few drops pass and then collect the sample in a clean cup. I had to do this often for my thyroid and pregnancy tests. Also, remember to discuss your results and routine reports with your doctor regularly.
I am also planning to test next week and was reading up on this! Apparently, the first urine of the day is best because it's most concentrated. Do we need to buy those special cups from the chemist or is any clean plastic cup fine?
For my tests, I was always told to collect the 'mid-stream' urine of your very first morning bathroom visit. This means pee a little bit first, then collect, to avoid any contamination. Sending you so much love and positive thoughts, hope you get your happy news soon.
Just collect the first morning urine in a small sterile container. I remember doing this while trying to fight off terrible early morning nausea, so please take your time and don't rush. Sit down comfortably if you feel dizzy or sick while doing it.
The easiest way is to use a clean disposable plastic cup first thing in the morning. Since morning urine has the highest hormone levels, it gives the fastest and most accurate results. Do it before you rush for work, and use a dropper to put 2-3 drops on the card.
