I CAN PREG TEST

How I CAN PREG TEST Works

• I CAN Pregnancy Test is a rapid, qualitative immunoassay designed to detect human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) in urine. hCG is a hormone produced by the placenta shortly after implantation of a fertilized egg in the uterus. Its presence in urine is a reliable indicator of pregnancy. The test utilizes a combination of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies to selectively detect elevated levels of hCG.
• Here's a breakdown of the science behind I CAN Pregnancy Test: The test strip contains a reaction zone with antibodies specific to hCG. When urine is applied to the test strip, it migrates upwards via capillary action. If hCG is present in the urine, it binds to the antibodies in the reaction zone. This antibody-hCG complex then moves to the test region (T) on the strip, where it binds to another set of immobilized antibodies specific to hCG. This binding creates a visible colored line, indicating a positive result.
• A control line (C) is also present on the test strip. This line appears regardless of whether hCG is present in the urine, serving as a procedural control to ensure the test is working correctly. The appearance of the control line indicates that sufficient urine has been applied, the test strip is functioning properly, and the reagents are active. If the control line does not appear, the test is invalid and should be repeated with a new test device.
• The sensitivity of I CAN Pregnancy Test is carefully calibrated to detect hCG levels at a concentration of 25 mIU/mL (milli-International Units per milliliter) or greater. This level of sensitivity allows for early detection of pregnancy, often as early as the first day of a missed period. However, hCG levels vary among women and pregnancies. Testing earlier than the first day of a missed period may result in a false negative result, as hCG levels may not yet be high enough to be detected by the test. For the most accurate results, it is recommended to test at least one day after a missed period using the first urine of the morning, which typically contains the highest concentration of hCG.
• In summary, I CAN Pregnancy Test provides a convenient and reliable way to detect pregnancy by detecting the presence of hCG in urine through a specific antibody-antigen reaction. The appearance of both a control line and a test line indicates a positive result, while the appearance of only a control line indicates a negative result. The absence of a control line invalidates the test.

I CAN Pregnancy Test is generally very safe to use and rarely causes side effects. However, some women may experience anxiety or emotional distress related to the test result, regardless of whether it is positive or negative. False results, though rare, can also lead to emotional distress. Always follow the instructions carefully to ensure accurate results. If you have concerns about the result, consult with a healthcare professional.

• I-Can Pregnancy Test is a single-use diagnostic tool and does not involve a dosage schedule. Therefore, the question of a missed dose is not applicable.

• Keep I CAN PREG TEST away from the reach of children and pets.
• Store I CAN PREG TEST at room temperature.

• **Read the Instructions Carefully:** Before you start, thoroughly read the instructions included in the I CAN PREG TEST kit. Understanding the procedure and interpretation of results is crucial for accuracy.
• **Check the Expiry Date:** Ensure that the test kit is not expired. Using an expired test can lead to inaccurate results. Look for the expiry date printed on the packaging.
• **Use First Morning Urine:** For the most accurate results, use the first urine of the day. This is because the hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) hormone, which the test detects, is most concentrated in the morning.
• **Perform the Test Correctly:** Follow the instructions precisely. This usually involves collecting urine in a clean container and applying a specific number of drops to the test device. Avoid overfilling or underfilling the sample well.
• **Wait the Right Amount of Time:** Allow the test to develop for the recommended time, as specified in the instructions (usually 3-5 minutes). Reading the results too early or too late can lead to inaccurate interpretations.Do not keep for longer time after specified as it may lead to vague results.
• **Confirm a Negative Result:** If you get a negative result but suspect you might be pregnant, wait a few days and test again. hCG levels rise rapidly in early pregnancy, so retesting can provide a more accurate result.If you have missed periods, consult your doctor for confirmation.
• **Understand the Results:** Familiarize yourself with how to read the test result. A positive result usually shows two lines, while a negative result shows one line. Be sure to distinguish between the control line and the test line. Even a faint line in the test area should be considered a positive result.
• **Avoid Drinking Excessive Fluids:** Avoid drinking excessive amounts of fluids before taking the test, as this can dilute your urine and potentially lead to a false negative result.
• **Store the Test Properly:** Store the I CAN PREG TEST kit in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Improper storage can affect the test's accuracy.
• **Consult a Healthcare Professional:** Regardless of the test result, consult a healthcare professional for confirmation and guidance. They can provide a more accurate assessment and discuss your options.

• There are no known food interactions with I CAN PREG TEST. You can use the test at any time of the day, regardless of when you last ate or drank. Food and drink intake do not affect the accuracy of the test results.
