Patient's question:
How many days after pregnancy can a test detect it with a test strip!Doctor's answer:
Generally, ten days after sexual intercourse, you can go to the hospital for a blood HCG test to preliminarily determine if you are pregnant. Test strips are generally not clinically significant until about one week after the menstrual period is delayed.Hold the test strip with the arrow mark end immersed in the container with urine, but do not let it go above the mark line (the first black line under the arrow). Remove it after about three seconds and place it flat. Observe the results within five minutes. Remember that the result observed after 15 minutes is not valid.
Negative: Only the control line (the top red line) appears, indicating no pregnancy;
Positive: The control line and the test line (the red line below the control line) appear, and the test line is clearly colored, indicating pregnancy;
Weak Positive: The test line is fainter than the control line, indicating possible pregnancy. Please test again with morning urine the next day;
Strong Positive: The test line is darker than the control line, indicating that pregnancy has been ongoing for some time.
