Home methods to check pregnancy were used before the modern pregnancy test kits were invented. A number of these natural pregnancy tests are still very useful, as they are easy to do with the help of several things readily available at home.
All the pregnancy tests listed down have no side effects and can be performed without having any fear. Also, either you can retake a similar test twice or thrice or perform 2-3 different tests for knowing about your pregnancy test accurately.
Appropriate Time For Pregnancy Test
Always perform these tests in the morning when your urine has high levels of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin. This is the hormone that your body produces when you get pregnant and have started creating the placenta in your womb.
This hormone is released in higher amounts during the initial days of pregnancy and enters your urine and bloodstream. This is the reason why this hormone reacts with different products through your urine.
Keep in mind that the timing of your ovulation might vary from month to month, and the fertilized egg can implant in the uterus at different times. This can affect the timing of HCG production and when it can be detected. If your periods are irregular, you might miscalculate when your period is due.
