Results Interpretation

1. Positive: Two distinct red lines will appear, one in the test region (T) and another in the control region (C). You can assume that you are pregnant.

2. Negative: Only one red line appears in the control region (C). No apparent line in the test region (T). You can assume that you are not pregnant.

3. Invalid: The result is invalid if no color line appears in the control region (C), even if a line appears in the test region (T). In any event, repeat the test.

   • Note: If the test line is weak, it is recommended that the test be repeated with the first morning specimen obtained 48~72 hours later. No matter how the test results, it is recommended to consult your physician.

​

Limitations

• The test works only if the instructions are followed precisely.

• False-negative readings can occur when testing is done too early. To get the most accurate results, it is good to wait for about a week after your period is due before testing. This allows more hCG to be built up in your urine for a more accurate test.

• This test is designed for the qualitative screening test. A confirmed pregnancy diagnosis should be made only by a physician after all clinical and laboratory findings have been evaluated.

• Using the test strip within 8 weeks of giving birth or having a miscarriage may also result in a positive result. Consult with your doctor if you have a concern.
