I just wanted to share this information. I see so many people on here question the pregnancy test results. I found this and I'm a little confused by what it says:::
FALSE NEGATIVE URINE TEST
In case of irregular periods or late pregnancy, a urine test done after 5 days may be negative. If you are looking forward to the pregnancy, do not take any tablets and repeat the test after 5 days or go in for a blood test
BLOOD TEST
Beta component of hCG can also be detected in the blood of the patient if early confirmation is very important.
SONOGRAPHY
After 5-6 wks, pregnancy can also be confirmed by UltraSonoGraphy.
CLINICAL EXAMINATION
It is very difficult to detect pregnancy with just clinical examination before the end of the eight weeks of pregnancy. That is why alternate methods are deployed. Beta component of hCG can also be detected in the blood of the patient if early confirmation is very important.
Changes in the reproductive organs that can be detected by clinical examination after about eight weeks of pregnancy include:
Bluish or violet discoloration of the va___a.
Softening of the cervix
Slight enlargement and softening of the uterus and
Pulsations in the artery of the uterus that can be felt on the finger tips inserted in the va___a.
Hope that helps some of you. I don't understand what it means by after 5 days?
