What are the downsides of the Natalist Pregnancy Test?

Worth weighing: Higher price.

How early can I take a pregnancy test?

Sensitive early-detection tests can detect hCG about 6 days before a missed period, but accuracy is highest from the day of your missed period onward. Testing too early risks a false negative.

What does test sensitivity mean?

It’s the lowest hCG concentration (in mIU/mL) a test can detect. A lower number means higher sensitivity and the ability to detect pregnancy earlier.
