Best pregnancy test

         When it comes to verify if they are pregnant or not, women (although they are very impatient and stressed) become very careful and selective with their choices. Of course, the most common way to find out an accurate answer, is the home pregnancy test. But, after the decision of taking a home pregnancy test (not going on a clinic to find out), there comes another big decision: What test to use? Which is the best pregnancy test?

         Considering the way they are working, it is known that there’s no difference between home pregnancy tests because they all are working by the same principle: they have to detect the presence of hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) in a woman’s body(in her urine).

         Now, knowing that, from this point of view there is no big difference; which could be the differences that make a certain pregnancy test be the best? For answering this question we must settle the criterion of sorting those home pregnancy tests.

         Firstly, the most important quality of a pregnancy test is, for most women, its capacity to give the fast results. They consider that the best pregnancy tests are those which give a fast response, because of their impatience. Now, considering this criterion, you are probably wondering which test gives the fastest result. Well, it is known that for getting a fast result you should take a more sensitive pregnancy test, because with a sensitivity of 25mlU, for example, it could detect the pregnancy as early as a day after the missed period. Some of those more sensitive tests could be: AimStrip (aka AimStick) Pregnancy Test Strip (20 mlU), AccuHome Midstream Pregnancy Test (25 mlU), Accuclear Pregnancy Test (25 mlU), Answer Early Result Pregnancy Test (25 mlU), Clearblue Easy (25 mlU), e.p.t. +/- Test (25 mlU) etc.

         Another important factor of the pregnancy tests could be, for many women, their price. Knowing that all those tests work on the same way, they consider that the most important criterion of choosing them is the price. Generally, those cheaper tests are not very sensitive and they could not be very fast in identifying the pregnancy. As usual, there are some exceptions which don’t allow any generalization. One of these exceptions could be Wallmart brand Equate, which is considered by many people the best pregnancy test, because it is cheaper and more sensitive than many other tests which are known as being part from the most sensitive category.

         Most women think that the best pregnancy test is that which gives the most reliable results all the time . So, it is thought that the most important quality of a pregnancy test is its reliability. There are many opinions for considering EPT the most reliable pregnancy test available, but from other opinion polls emerge that the First Response Early Result Pregnancy Test would be the most reliable one.

         Considering the big number of the pregnancy test brands tested and let to get into this market by the “Consumer Reports”, it is very hard to decide which is the best pregnancy test. Depending on what is more important for you from those tests’ qualities, you should decide for yourself which is the best test for you.
