Avatar n tn I frequently use urine test strips to test my urine when I feel unwell that may be waterwork problem. Have had kidney stone surgically removed in the past. Nitrite on the stick will mean that it is a bladder problem - usually Cystitis. Positive leucocyte reading on the stick with or without signs of protein, usually means that there is a bacterial infection. If the doctor said you have a uti (urinary tract infection) this is anywhere from the kidneys down.
Avatar f tn re basically the same, although some women prefer certain brands over others. Usually, the 7-test kits are midstream test, so a little easier to use, while the higher-quantity ones tend to be strips that needs to be dipped in urine, so requiring that you collect it in a cup first. I've used both types and they seemed to work equally well for me. Best of luck this month!
Avatar f tn I am wondering what the difference is between a strip test and midstream ovulation test? Is there a difference? is one more accurate?

387168 tn?1214756393 Hi, I used an ovulation testing kit this month. The best way to do this is to pee in the cup then hold the strip in the cup for 10-15 secs (thats wat i did). On CD12 i tested, got a control line but no test line. on CD15 i tested & got both the Control line & test line, and my test line was darker than my control. The test line HAS to be darker than the control line to be a positive for ovulation. If it is fainter than the control line, then its not a positive for ovulation.

Avatar n tn It seems that you have had previous problems with your bladder, so I would bypass primary unless you need a referal. Your primary dr. can only do a urine test and the urine test do not show an IC, at least it did not in my case. My reason for being sent to a urologist was due to frequent urination.
Avatar n tn If you are not having regular periods, or any periods, then you are not ovulating. Urine ovulation prediction kits work 90%-95% of the time, but they fail to pick up ovulation in 5%-10% and so you might fall into that category, if your periods are regular.
Avatar n tn No concern, the generation diferentiaites how the test work but for all test a 3 month negative is conclusive and a positive would need a western blot or IFA confirmation test
Avatar f tn My dr did some blood and sugar tests to see where I stood hormonally. Most of them came back normal. Ultrasound did show polycystic ovaries (and one that had burst, causing deep pain). After that, the only "fertility" test I did was the HSG test where they run dye through your tubes. I had that done after an ectopic pregnancy. Who is doing your tests? It looks like you have been ttc for about 6 months. For many, that is not tooooo aweful long.

Avatar m tn Do you think the HIV self test kits are reliable? Because they are banned in some countries such as UK and US. If they are reliable, why the government doesn't allow people buy the testing kit? And is the result at 25 days reliable or is too soon? Thanks!!!!!
Avatar f tn The cramps probaly from your period being late. test in the next couple days or go to your doctor and have a blood test which would definitly tell if you are or not.
Avatar f tn breast tenderness. It can be detected by an Ovulation predictor test kit which is tested with the help of urine. A sperm can live in the body for up to 5 days so make sure that you have had sex several days before ovulation. For the best OPK it is best to contact your gynecologist. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing!
Avatar f tn Hello, Pregnancy test kits are basically qualitative kind of test which just tests presence of hCG hormone in the urine of pregnant woman because this hormone is only produced during pregnancy among women. But this pregnancy test depends upon the particular level of hCG in the blood. So sometime it may be possible that it can give you false negative results during early days of pregnancy only because of un- sufficient level of hCG to make test positive.
Avatar f tn On the second time (last week), the UTI symptoms lasted 3 days and I felt better, but I went to the urologist anyway and then he did a sonogram (bladder and kidney with normal results) and an urine test which showed E.coli. Since the exam did not show high levels of the bacteria and I did not have the symptoms anymore, I told him that I did not want to take more antibiotics and he said that he agreed as long as I do a new culture in 2 weeks. That’s my plan.
