Over-the-Counter HCG (pregnancy) tests are for those individuals who, for any reason, believe they may be pregnant. This test detects HCG in urine. HCG is a hormone produced by the placenta shortly after implantation. Since HCG is present in the urine of a pregnant woman, it is an excellent marker for confirming pregnancy. Early identification is important in the management of pregnancy. This condition must be identified so that fetal exposure to potentially harmful circumstance may be minimized or eliminated. Many individuals hesitate to seek clinical confirmation of this condition (pregnancy) due to medical examination costs and appointment scheduling difficulties. This device offers an alternative to the initial office visit and will allow for more rapid initiation of pre-natal care upon confirmation tests by trained clinical technicians.
