What do I need to know about home pregnancy tests?

theyre 99% correct. pee on it and keep your fingers crossed. if it comes back positive, assess your options and speak to your partner about what you should do together

What do you want to know exactly? You buy them from a chemist or supermarket and follow the directions. Ones that advertise as being "early" pregnancy tests are generally better as they are more sensitive and I personally always get the midstream ones (this is a stick you pee on as compared with the other type where you pee in a cup and dip a stick). Always read and follow the directions as there is a timeframe for reading the test. Also first morning urine is best. Hope this answers your question

Well they won't work the day after you have sex. The test will tell you if you have the hormone hCG in your body. This is the hormone your body starts to produce about 6 days after conception, but it starts out in very small doses, and will continue to increase each day you are pregnant. Most pregnancy tests are 99% effective, but if you take one and it comes out negative, take another one in 2 weeks if you still think you may be pregnant and haven't started your period. If you go to a clinic and they give you a urine test... it's the same test you would buy in stores. When you buy the test read the directions carefully because each one is a little different.

They are never always accurate, so test at least 3 times. Once in the morning, once on the day you feel your boobies feel different and you know something different about you, and of course when your period it at least 12 days late.

take it at your 1st pee of the morning...only pee on the little thing with the cap on(after u take the cap off of corse hahaha). place it somewhere flat & dry, wait 3 mins.....and check!!! (=

oh, & if there is a very faint 2nd line ( 1st response test ) it still means yes lol (=

have fun!!!
