Beginning Pregnancy With An Early Pregnancy Test
By Michelle Bery
When you are trying to become pregnant – or are anxious that you may be pregnant – the waiting game can be excruciating. Fortunately, with the continued introduction of more sensitive testing procedures, you are able to know if you are pregnant very early in the process. An early test can put your mind at ease and, if you are pregnant, allow you to make arrangements to see a doctor right away, ensuring the best prenatal care for your baby.
Upon conception, a woman’s body will register elevated levels of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin or HCG. HCG – which at a certain level indicates – can be normally be detected by a simple blood test as early as 11 days after conception; a urine test will normally detect HCG around 14 days after conception. A pregnant woman’s HCG levels will actually double every 2-3 days. So, clearly, the longer you wait to take an early test, the more accurate the reading.
With a sensitive early test – like the ones being introduced on the market everyday – women can actually learn if they’re pregnant as early as one week prior to their missed period.
Gone are the days when women had to wait to miss their period before making an appointment with a doctor for a blood test and awaiting the test results. With the early test we can know almost immediately, allowing us to adopt a healthier lifestyle right off the bat.
Further, studies have shown that a fetus’s greatest chance at health and full-term delivery is the level of pre-natal care. Which means the earlier in that you begin seeing an obstetrician, the better your health and that of your baby’s. An early test will give you the advantage of knowing you are pregnant much sooner so that you can have access to the best medical care available.
An early test can be purchased over-the-counter from virtually any retail drugstore and, sometimes, even in supermarkets. They are convenient, affordable, and easy to understand.
But remember that the results of an early test – while incredibly accurate – should be confirmed by a medical doctor. So make your appointment right away after taking the test.
Pregnancy can be a wonderful journey! Find out if it’s the journey you are on with an early test. For easy to understand, in depth information about visit our ezGuide 2 Pregnancy.
