Frequently Asked Questions


We are here to help if you need us

Below is a selection of the most frequently asked questions about pregnancy tests. if you do not see the answer to your question here then e-mail it to us or telephone us on 01623 883 830 Monday to Friday 9am to 4.30pm and we will endeavour to answer it for you.

  1. How soon can I do a pregnancy test ?

    ''How soon can I test for pregnancy test after ovulation, ivf, embryo transfer or implantation ?''

    This is a very common question particularly after assisted conception.

    The very earliest that a pregancy test should be done is 8-10 days after ovulation or assisted conception.

    In early pregnancy testing an ultra 10miu pregnancy test kit should be selected as these are the most sensitive and able to detect the very low levels of hcg which are being produced at this time.

    Negative tests do not mean that conception has not occured, and may be progressing, but just not to the state on implantation and placental growth to produce sufficient hcg yet. For this reason you should re-test every 48 hrs and must do so even up to 12 days from the expected menstrual period date if this does not occur. (this allows for the small percentage of late implanting embryos)

    If you get a positive pregnancy test with an ultra pregnancy test, you should also confirm that the pregnancy has continued to implant and remains viable by re-testing at around the time of the expected next period using a standard 25miu pregnancy test membrane.

  2. There is a faint line on my pregnancy test, am I pregnant ?

    Yes, as long as you have a clear control line to validate the test, any test line even a very faint or thin test line indicates a positive result if it is showing at the correct read time for the test, for most brands this is between 2 and 5 minutes.

    Do not come back to a test later as any test line forming after the correct read time is not an accurate result.

  3. My pregnancy test is negative but my period is late-could I still be pregnant ?    The situation of a negative pregnancy test & late period is a common query.

    Answer- yes you could be pregnant ?

    Things to consider :

    -Time of day that you tested-it is always best to a pregnancy test on a first morning void (the urine you produce on first rising from bed in the morning)of course if you work nights then it will be a different time of day but still your first void after waking.

    -What was the sensitivity of the pregnancy test that you used ? You could retest using a more sensitive pregnancy test if you have any in.

    -did you ovulate later than usual this cycle ?

    What to do

    If you tested on a first void and the test you used was an early pregnancy test then wait 48hours and re-test.

    If the test is still negative and the period has not started wait another 48 hours and if still no period repeat the test. Consider using a more sensitive pregnancy test or a different brand.

    If your period is very late and the pregnancy tests are negative make an appointment and see your doctor. They will be able to do a blood pregnancy test (BHcg) and exclude other causes.
