First Response Early Result Pregnancy Test, 2 Count (Pack of 1)

Product Information

How early can you use it? - The most sensitive pregnancy tests such as First Response Early Result Pregnancy Test can detect 10mIU/ml and some of these can be used before your period is due. It's worth noting, however, that the NHS recommends taking a pregnancy test from the first day of a missed period or at least 21 days after having unprotected sex.

Ease of use - Most pregnancy tests involve measuring the level of hormone present in your urine, but some are easier to use than others. Most home pregnancy tests tend to have a plastic casing around them, but you can also buy cheaper pregnancy strips, such as One Step, which have no casing but can be just as effective at detecting hCG. When testing, you would need to dip an uncased pregnancy strip into a pot of urine rather than attempt to wee on it. If you prefer, however, you can also ask for a pregnancy test free of charge with your GP or at your local sexual health clinic. If you are under the age of 25, you may also get a pregnancy test from your local Brook centre. How we chose our recommendations Products tried and tested by real parentsAccording to an independent study, First Response has a sensitivity level of 6.3 mIU/ml. That means it detects pregnancies up to six days before you miss your period, which is fantastic. It’s the only home pregnancy that makes this claim, and it’s probably why it’s the #1 best-selling pregnancy test on the market.

During the first trimester, the pregnancy hormone increases from less than 5mIU/ml to over 100,000mIU/ml, and the further into your pregnancy you are, the more present this hormone will be in your urine. How accurate are home pregnancy tests? Moms rave about these tests. While there is the listed sensitivity, many moms note that they received a positive result on these tests as soon as they received a positive result on a First Response test. For the price, it’s worth giving them a shot. 4. Clearblue Digital Pregnancy TestsLet’s take a look at the current most sensitive pregnancy tests on the market. How Do Home Pregnancy Tests Work? The HCG sensitivity is nowhere close to FRER. It’s listed as 22 mIU/ml, and that could take two days to reach that point. Knowing two days earlier does matter to a lot of women. 3. Clinical Guard HCG Pregnancy Test Strips If testing before your expected period, use the first urine of the day. Otherwise you can test any time of the day. Acne Acne is a common skin condition that affects most people at some point. It causes spots, oily skin and sometimes skin that’s hot or painful to touch. Acne most commonly develops on the face.

All home pregnancy tests work the same way - by measuring the hCG levels in your urine- but when it comes to dye-based tests, which are the ones which give line results, there is some debate as to whether pink dye based tests or blue dye tests are better. Whilst this is a frequent topic of discussion on the Mumsnet Conception boards, the general consensus is usually that pink dye tests - such as First Response Early Result tests - are more trustworthy than blue dye tests, which can be more likely to show evaporation lines and even false positives. What are the best pregnancy tests UK?If you are not sure whether you would like to continue with the pregnancy you can explore your options with your GP or NHS online and if you know you will be terminating the pregnancy you can self refer to The British Pregnancy Advisory Service, Marie Stopes U.K. or a local GUM clinic.' How should you take a pregnancy test? The Clearblue Digital Early Detection test can be used dipped in urine or under a urine stream and comes with an extra-wide tip (which, to put it bluntly, can help avoid any mess if you have a questionable aim!)

Fast, simple and reliable, the First Response Early Result Pregnancy Test (or 'FRER' as it's more commonly known on Mumsnet) is one brand of pregnancy test which has been highly recommended by Mumsnet users for years for providing the most accurate results. The most sensitive pregnancy tests can detect 10mIU/ml and some of these can be used before your period is due. However, the NHS generally advises that you take a pregnancy test from the first day of a missed period. Mumsnet has been helping parents make their lives easier since 2000 and, in those years, we’ve seen, tried and reviewed thousands of products.

Some pregnancy tests have a low threshold, but others might not indicate a positive result until your levels are over 75 mIU/ml. Those tests wouldn’t be ideal for early detection, but they should work for taking a test when you miss your period. How Early Can I Take a Pregnancy Test?
