After having sex, many female friends want to know if they are pregnant, especially those in the preconception stage, who attach more importance to whether they are pregnant. The self testing method for early pregnancy is through a pregnancy test stick and a pregnancy test paper. Due to its simple operation, most people will use them. So, can the pregnancy be detected by the 16 in bed test? Is there any other way to test pregnancy?
Can 16 roommates be tested for pregnancy?
Generally speaking, home testing and hospital testing are separated, and hospital testing can obtain results earlier and more accurately. Home testing usually uses early pregnancy test strips. Generally speaking, women can usually determine whether they are pregnant within a week to 10 days after actual pregnancy.
Once the male sperm and female egg combine to form a fertilized egg, about 7-10 days after the fertilized egg implants in the endometrium, the placenta of the pregnant woman will secrete a special substance called human chorionic gonadotropin, which is often referred to as HCG in medicine. It only exists in the pregnant woman's body. About a week after pregnancy, human chorionic gonadotropin will appear in the pregnant woman's urine, but the secretion of this substance is relatively low in the first few days of pregnancy and is not easy to detect. It is usually more obvious between 10-14 days after pregnancy.
What are the methods for detecting pregnancy?
The first method is to use early pregnancy test strips to detect pregnancy, which is the most commonly used method. It can be detected as early as 7 days after sexual intercourse, usually 18 days, and a few may take more than 20 days to detect. 7-10 days after menstruation is to make the test results more accurate. The optimal testing time should be 18 days after sexual intercourse, or 7-10 days after the next menstrual period.
The second method is blood or urine HCG testing, which can diagnose unintended pregnancy as early as possible. After the fertilized egg is implanted into the uterus, a new hormone called chorionic gonadotropin is produced in the pregnant woman's body, which is beneficial for maintaining pregnancy. This hormone can be detected in urine about 10 days after conception. Early pregnancy blood test is to detect the amount of human chorionic gonadotropin in your blood, not in your urine. Blood tests can detect very small amounts of hormones, so they can detect pregnancy earlier than urine tests (usually around 6-8 days after ovulation).
The third method is basal body temperature testing, which uses basal body temperature measurement to measure body temperature every morning after waking up and lying in bed. This temperature is called basal body temperature. Before ovulation, the body temperature is generally below 36.5 degrees Celsius. After ovulation, progesterone increases and acts on the temperature center, causing the body temperature to rise by 0.3-0.5 degrees Celsius. If the egg fails to fertilize, the progesterone will decrease and the body temperature will return to normal after about a week; If pregnant, progesterone levels remain high and keep body temperature at a high level.
The early examination methods were both using a pregnancy test stick and a pregnancy test paper, but these two methods often have certain errors. Therefore, if you want to obtain accurate results, you must go to the hospital to get them, so that the results are accurate. Now everyone should know that if you have 16 roommates, can pregnancy be detected? Have you found the answer to this question? I hope the above content can be helpful to everyone.
