Tesco Pregnancy Tests

[hayleyj]

Hello. Just wondered if anyone out there has had experience from using a Tesco Pregnancy test? Are they reliable? I've used one today as period is quite a few days late and it came up negative. Just wondered how accurate they are!
Thanks.x

they are all pretty much the same, whether branded or store brand.

They work by reacting with a hormone that you produce when pregnant.

The earlier in pregnancy you are the lower the hormone so it can be up to 2 weeks after period is due that a result is true, though some can give a true result 6 days before period.

Best time to test is with first wee of day as it is more concentrated.

Test every few days until you either get a positive result or your period.

They've worked for me! Ive used 3 - 1st one was positive, so took 2 more (again tesco's cheapest) and they were both positive, and i am pregnant. As it says above, most brands work the same. I have heard that the ones you can buy from the pound shop come up positive if you pour coke on them!

I took 3 of the cheapest tesco tests, all were positive and I had a baby girl nearly 4 weeks ago!

So they definately work!!
