I'll start out by saying these tests are a bit of a joke. HCG in urine varies greatly depending on hydration levels, time of the day, etc. And most people according to google say that the amount of HCG in urine is lower than the amount in blood. So why did I buy some? Because I'm crazy and stupid.
According to the documentation this is how the tests should read:
1-2 Weeks <156 hcg
2-3 Weeks 156-2600 hcg
3+ Weeks > 2600 hcg
Here's an example of how inaccurate they are. Thursday I took one before my HCG draw. The test said 1-2 weeks pregnant and my HCG was 433.
So knowing my HCG was 433 Thursday, it should have doubled by Saturday and doubled again by today. So I wanted to see 2-3 weeks on the test...
Hmmm. I guess the HCG has gone up a little since Thursday . . .
