My period is 2 days late and i want to test at home before going to the doc. So many brands at the chemist, got confused which one to pick. Which kit gave u accurate results early?
Any standard home urine test works well if you use first morning urine and wait till after your missed period. I used Prega News both times, did the job. For confirmation a blood beta hCG test is most accurate, your doc can guide.
The regular pharmacy strips are cheap and work fine, no need for the expensive digital ones really. Take it after your period is late so you dont waste it. If positive, then go for the doctor confirmation.
My doctor said home kits are quite reliable when taken at the right time, but testing too early gives false negatives. Use morning sample for the strongest result. If you want the surest answer early, a blood test at the lab beats the strips.
I tested like 5 times with different kits honestly because I couldn't believe the line. They all showed same in the end. Lesson learnt, dont test too early and dont waste money on too many, just wait a couple days after missed period.
