Pregnancy tests detect the pregnancy hormone, human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (hCG), in your urine. This hormone starts to be produced around six days after fertilisation. Anyone who is unsure of the results should give hCG levels time to rise and take another test in a few days. This can reduce the risk of false negatives. I did use CB digital to show 1-2 then tested again the following week to get 2-3 and then bang on the following week for 3+. There are, however, a number of rare conditions that can cause a test to come out positive in the absence of pregnancy. Examples include familial hCG syndrome, molar pregnancy, or conditions that affect the pituitary gland.

Most early-result pregnancy tests can only detect hCG when it rises to levels of 25 mIU/ml or higher, which happens after ovulation around day 11

Digital or line results? - Most home pregnancy tests will display a second line (either a cross or a line in the test area) if hCG is detected. Some more expensive pregnancy tests have a digital display to indicate whether you are pregnant or not. The Clearblue Pregnancy Test With Weeks Indicator even estimates how many weeks along you are. Many women refer to the ‘two-week wait’ - the period between ovulation and (ideally) a missed period, after which the hormone is likely to be present if you are expecting. Is a blue or pink dye pregnancy test better? My first test on the day I thought my period was due was so ridiculously faint. My hubbie wasn't overly convinced there was anything there and of course it starts fading after a while. Anyway over the next five days I continued to test and the lines got slowly darker to the point of where they were the same. It made me feel so much happier as the week went on as it meant my hcg levels were increasing.Mum-of-three Jenny Wonnacott is a Content Editor for Mumsnet, specialising in writing, editing and optimising pregnancy care and child play content.
