The BIOTEST Pregnancy Test Kit detects a
hormone in the urine that the body produces during pregnancy - hCG (human
chorionic gonadotropin). The amount of pregnancy hormone increases as pregnancy
progresses. However, the test can be performed anytime of the day and as early
as the first day of missing the period as it is capable of detecting the
presence of 25mIU/ml of hCG in the urine.
Below is a chart that shows
averages of hCG starting with week 3 to week 40. These reading varies within
different individuals.
