Avatar f tn I go see my doctor and ask for a full STD screening, which included a first catch urine test for chlamydia and gonorrhoea. I follow the instructions carefully and make sure not to urinate two hours prior to the test, but now I am questioning if I did something that could alter the results. Right before urinating, I noticed some lint on the top of my penis. I used my boxers to dab it off, and then urinated into the first cup.
Avatar f tn You tested with urine that was not concentrated enough. The instructions say to use first-morning urine for a reason. The hCG in the urine will not register on a test if you have had several large glasses of water in the previous hour, for example. Even if you are pregnant.
Avatar f tn All blood tests came back normal so this is another route we are taking. It comes with the bottle to collect the urine, instructions on how to mail the test out and a huge Iodine pill for me to take before the test. I'm just a little confused about what I can and cannot eat 48 hours before the test. I'm not suppose to eat anything with Iodine or salt but is sea salt okay? Any other suggestions. Thank you in advance.
Avatar f tn What is the best ovulation test to use? The most accurate? What time is the best time how many times a day and on what cycle days.
Avatar n tn I recently had a urine test for chlamydia and gonorrhea, unfortunately the person at the clinic didn't give very good instructions. I caught the urine mid stream instead of first catch. Will this make a big difference in the results?
Avatar f tn When using an ovulation test kit should I test first thing in morning or during the day? The instructions say first thing in the morning but I've read online that I should use the test usually between the hours of 10am-2pm. Which one is it?
Avatar f tn So i took a home pregnancy test today and the vertical line was very faint and the horizontal line was very clear. I have never taken a home test before and i the instructions were not very clear about what it means. Any help?
Avatar f tn best to test by the instructions....at least that is what i have been told.....different test kit's instructions say different times......each kit is set to read differnt levels, so it is best to read instructions and use them..... hate to say it but try a few differnt kits and times and see if the give same reading at differnt times, then you will have better information of your individual cycle.....
Avatar f tn Just wondering if anyone has found a certain time of day better to test for ovulation? I have a Clearblue digital ovulation kit, which says you can test first thing in the morning. However I have read that it is better to test after 2pm to detect the LH surge.
Avatar f tn Read the instructions. any lines that show up after (normally 10 minutes) doesn't mean anything. It could be the line bleeding. Take another test tomorrow or the next day if you want, but don't rely on that one at all.
Avatar m tn all tests are better than normal, serum creatine lower than normal range means kidneys are working very good it is creatinine clearance to be strange, is it done by 24hrs urine collection?did you follow instructions and start-end time very very carefully?
Avatar f tn u need to test with fist urine of the day the hcg has been sitting the longest and will show up if you are
Avatar m tn Hi Dr, just a quick question regarding urine chlamydia and gonnerea tests. The test I did was a First catch urine test (I'm from Australia if that makes any difference). My doctor gave me no instructions so I went to do the test mid morning. The lab lady asked if it was the first time I've been to the toilet for the day. It wasn't, but it had been roughly 1.5 to 2 hrs since my last toilet stop.
Avatar f tn Most pregnancy tests will come with paper instructions telling you how to interpret a really faint result. In most cases, if you did the test properly and saw the line just after the suggested length of time to wait for results, it means positive. But it's still a good idea to check the written instructions that came with the test. If you're still unsure, it can't hurt to test again the next day.
1672846 tn?1303934633 What type of test are you using. What does the instructions say, as far as it should say if invalid is a negative or not? Using your first urine in the morning is the most accurate.
Avatar m tn Test again in about six more days, and be sure to follow the test instructions exactly in regards to using concentrated (first morning) urine.
Avatar f tn Hello, Sometimes false positive results are there like in chemical pregnancies, missed reaction time of the test(If you let the test sit for too long (after the instructions on the box tell you), the test is invalid) and if you are taking drugs that have hCG in them like Novarel, Profasi, Pregnyl. Please check these conditions. If you are doubtful regarding the status of your pregnancy, you can go in for blood pregnancy test which measures the amount of hCG in your blood.
Avatar m tn t really tell me what to do with the urine cup. So I just went into the bathroom and saw some instructions on the wall. It said something about wiping off your penis, but I didn't see any antiseptic wipes, so I didn't bother. It also said something about starting to pee first into the toilet, and then catching the urine with the cup. I wasn't sure I had enough pee in me, so I only let out a few drops into the toilet before peeing into the cup.
Avatar m tn s positive or not i have attached the instructions which was printed on the cover of hCG strip and the strip after the test. Is it negative? The images are in the links below and the test contains one thin blue line and one thick red line. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/641/dsc00735tk.jpg/ http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/94/dsc007331.
Avatar n tn If you read the test within the time mentioned in the instructions and you saw a line, that is a positive. Try testing again with another brand and first-morning (concentrated) urine if you are not sure.
