Types of pregnancy tests.

 Types of pregnancy tests:

1. Modern pharmaceuticals have made significant progress in recent years in the production of highly sensitive and ultrasensitive pregnancy tests. Such tests are called "jet" tests. Their packaging indicates a level of 10 mIU / ml. They got their name due to their use - ordinary tests must be soaked in urine, while "jet" tests are enough to put under the stream during urination.

2. The next type is "tablet" tests. This type is hypersensitive and is able to show the test from 1 day of delay, and in some cases even a few days before the expected date of menstruation. The case of tests is made of plastic with a special hole for instillation of urine.

3. The third, most modern, type of test, which is called the "electronic" test, you can get the result of not only the presence / absence of pregnancy, but also the timing in just 2-3 minutes. Such tests can be soaked and put under a stream at any time of the day. The result is displayed on a mini-screen and looks something like this: “Pregnant. 2-3 weeks". This type is the most expensive, its cost varies from 300 to 1000 rubles per unit.

It is difficult to say exactly which type is more effective, since expensive tests do not always show one hundred percent results, while the cheapest test strip can instantly determine pregnancy.
