When a woman is pregnant, her body makes a hormone called human chorionic
gonadotropin (hCG), which can be detected in urine. LifeSign1®
One-Step Home Pregnancy Test detects the presence of hCG in urine.
A
positive result indicates that the urine contains hCG and you can assume
you are pregnant.
A negative result indicates that no hCG was detected in the urine and
you can assume that you are not pregnant.
Before you begin:
Read all the information in this pamphlet before performing the test.
First, make sure you are familiar with the test kit contents shown above.
Store at 40-86° F (4-30°C) in the sealed pouch, away from direct sunlight.
Do not use after the expiration date stamped on the package.
Instructions
Results
Wait
at least 3 minutes before reading your test.
Positive: Two lines, one in each of the reading
windows, means you are probably pregnant. Even if one line is very light,
you can assume you are pregnant. Some positive results may appear in
just one minute.
Negative: One line in the control (upper)
window and no line in the test (lower) window means you are probably
not pregnant. Negative results take at least 3 minutes to confirm.
Invalid: If there are no lines visible in
the reading windows, the test did not work properly and should be repeated.
A control line will always appear if the test worked properly.
How To Interpret Your Test Result
A positive test result means your urine contains hCG, a hormone your
body makes during pregnancy. You can assume you are pregnant, and should
consult your doctor for proper prenatal care and nutrition counseling.
A negative result means that no hCG has been detected and you probably
are not pregnant. You may want to repeat the LifeSign1® test if a week
passes and you still have not started menstruating. If the result from
this later test is still negative, you are probably not pregnant, but
you should see your physician because there could be health-related
reasons why you are not menstruating.
Note: Since it can be difficult to know the day you've missed your
period, women with an irregular menstrual cycle should use the longest
cycle as a reference. If the test is negative and your period does not
begin within a few days, you may have miscalculated your cycle and should
use a second test.
Limits of the Test
The LifeSign1® One-Step Home Pregnancy Test is not reusable.
The test instructions must be followed precisely. The results should
not be affected by oral contraceptives, pain relievers, antibiotics
and other common drugs. Medications containing the pregnancy hormone
hCG may affect the test and should not be taken concurrently. If you
are on fertility drugs check with your doctor about their effect on
fertility tests.
LifeSign1® can be stored for 18 months at room temperature.
LifeSign1® is highly accurate in detecting pregnancy. In rare instances,
however, false results (positive when no pregnancy exists or negative
when pregnancy is present) may be observed. You should check with your
doctor if you get inconsistent results. Certain health conditions such
as ectopic pregnancy or a cyst in the ovary can cause false results.
The first three months of pregnancy are the most important for your
baby. See your doctor immediately for proper prenatal care and nutrition
counseling.
