Sisters who are anxious to get pregnant always want to know if they are pregnant this month, especially those who need to protect their babies, but also to know whether they are pregnant early so that they can take medicine in time. So when is pregnancy test better? What methods are there? Share my personal experience.
　　
Conception process
　　
After sharing the same room, it takes some time for the sperm to converge with the egg. This time may be several hours or several days. After the sperm and egg meet and are fertilized, it takes 3-4 days for the fertilized egg to reach the uterine cavity through the fallopian tube, and then it takes 2-3 days to implant into the uterus (implantation). After the fertilized egg is implanted into the uterus, it will secrete a hormone, namely human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), which is excreted with the female urine. At this time, if you use early pregnancy test paper, you can detect whether you are pregnant. The working principle of early pregnancy test paper is to detect HCG value in urine. However, due to too little HCG secretion at the beginning, it is not easy to measure until 10-14 days after ovulation.
　　
pregnancy test method
　　
Blood test: The fastest and most accurate way is to go to the hospital to take blood to check the HCG value. Generally, it can be tested 8 to 10 days after ovulation. Usually, if the HCG exceeds 5IU/L, it is considered to be pregnant, but this method needs to go to the hospital, which is a bit troublesome.
　　
Early pregnancy test paper: The more commonly used method is to test pregnancy by measuring morning urine with early pregnancy test paper or pregnancy test stick. It is recommended to start the test on the 10th day after ovulation, and put it for a few minutes after the test to see if there are two bars. Usually, if it can be measured on the 10th day after ovulation, it is also very light, so look carefully, look carefully, and keep your eyes wide open! Sometimes it may be just a shallow gray print, or even so shallow that you have to rely on your mind to see it, which is the so-called "idea gray". I have been pregnant many times and measured "idea gray" on the 9th to 10th day after ovulation. I went to the hospital to take blood to check HCG, and the value was about 40IU/L.
　　
Ovulation test paper: regarding ovulation test paper for early pregnancy, because HCG and LH (similar in structure to αHCG) are crossed, sometimes ovulation test paper also responds to early pregnancy, and ovulation test paper often measures early pregnancy before early pregnancy test paper (α content in HCG is much higher than β content in early pregnancy test paper). After ovulation, the ovulation test paper will turn strong yang into weak yang and then slowly turn negative. If the ovulation test paper suddenly turns positive again after continuous monitoring, then it may be pregnant. However, ovulation test paper for early pregnancy has its limitations, the accuracy is not high, and it is easy to cause misdiagnosis, so it can only be used as a reference.
　　
B ultrasound: of course, eventually through B ultrasound can determine whether normal pregnancy, general pregnancy 40 days or so to go to the hospital B ultrasound examination is normal intrauterine pregnancy.
　　
What are the symptoms?
　　
The implantation of the fertilized egg also indicates the success of pregnancy. After implantation, there will be no obvious symptoms in the short term. If the body is sensitive, you may feel some subtle changes, such as small abdominal pain, fatigue, drowsiness, and easy hunger (normal early pregnancy reactions usually occur in about 6 weeks). However, it is recommended that everyone try not to set symptoms, which will make people anxious. It is the best way to wait until 10 days after ovulation to have a pregnancy test.
　　
I hope every mother can get pregnant in a muddle, without going through this, without knowing so much, and giving birth to a baby easily and smoothly.
