What is a Pregnancy Test Kit?
Pregnancy test kits let you know if you are pregnant or not with a simple test done at home. These kits are easily available at any medical shop; the cost depends on the brand. But most tests aren’t very expensive. This kit measures the presence of a hormone known as Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) in your urine. After a fertilized egg attaches to the wall of the uterus, your body produces this hormone naturally. The presence of hormones reveals whether test results are positive or negative.How to Use a Pregnancy Test Kit?
