Regarding pregnancy, people who have not yet planned to have children are afraid to avoid it, while others are eager to seek it out. To know if you are pregnant with a new life, you need to undergo a series of tests, and people with different physical conditions can be tested through different methods. So, what are the pregnancy testing methods?
Method 1: Urine examination. This is the most widely used and the first testing method that pregnant women consider when experiencing pregnancy. After pregnancy, the body secretes HCG, which is the main indicator for checking pregnancy. The changes can be determined by checking urine or blood. This is also the principle of obtaining results through early pregnancy test strips or urine tests in hospitals.
Method 2: Gynecological examination. Gynecological examinations that determine pregnancy by observing changes in the appearance of the cervix are also an effective way of pregnancy testing. During the examination, if the doctor finds that the size of the uterus has increased, the cervix is soft and the color has turned dark purple, and the color of the vaginal mucosa has darkened, the chances of pregnancy are higher. If a woman undergoes gynecological examination 2 weeks after conception, it can be 100% certain whether she is pregnant.
Method 3: B-ultrasound examination. Ultrasound examination can more intuitively observe the condition of pregnancy and the development level of the fetus, but it is necessary to detect pregnancy signs accurately after the appearance of the gestational sac or fetal heart in the fifth week of pregnancy. In addition, ultrasound can also detect whether it is an ectopic pregnancy and treat it early.
