579749 tn?1217858569 Hi, all you there, I am 32 years old Male from India, Well my story began few years back, I was detected Anti-HCV Positive ( Anti-HIV & Anti-HBV Negative) and was recommended to go for HCV Quantitative and Genotyping but my reports gave conflicted results stating Genotype 3A and Non-Detectable Viremia.
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?
Avatar m tn A doctor will have to order the test but honestly the chance is so low that she has it (or your child) that it's really not necessary more than likely to even test. Most doctors think it's a waste of time (I had to fight for it hard) because the chance of passing it is so close to zero. I hope that puts your mind at ease but unless something came up I wouldn't worry about it (altlhough says me who did rush out and have her kids tested but I was positive when I had kids).
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 f tn I kNOW that blood test is more accurate than urine test and can detect pregnancy after 24 from implantation while urine test can give false positive results and false positive may be due to: 1-chemical pregnancy 2-missed reaction time(too long to read) 3-chemical interference from FERTILITY drugs having HCG ,medication like trankilizer phenothiazine,contamination with blood or gross amount of protien, 4-evaporation line,you see faint evaporation line as the urine crosses the test in the test are
Avatar m tn at 6 weeks after exposure I had varicella on my arms and chest and legs, so I went to get all STD test, the Hep C antibody test come back positive and HCV RNA come back negative. So I followed up other tests. At 10 weeks, I test HCV RNA which come back Negative( I didn't test for antibody at week 10) 12 weeks, Hep C antibody and HCV RNA both negative. 6 month after exposure Hep C antibody and HCV RNA both negative.

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 m tn The most common test for HCV is the antibody test, and it can take varying amounts of time for a person to develop antibodies, so in the case of a negative result from an early test, it is usual to repeat the test six months after exposure. If you had the HCV PCR test done then those results are accurate much earlier, usually about 2 weeks after exposure. If you posted the exact wording on your test report we could probably tell you which it was.
Avatar m tn Hopefully your doctor then followed up with an HCV/RNA by PCR test to ascertain whether or not you have active HCV and/or a referral to a specialist to run further tests Best to you... Will.
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 m tn Last fall I noticed slightly darker urine and less colored stools. I had some blood/urine tests ordered by my Dr and I tested positive for HCV antibodies on 10/13/2012. I can explain this to an unprotected sex contact I had, since I don't do drugs and didn't have any blood transfusion. A number of other tests were altered, including ALT. A week later (10/20/2012) I have been tested for viral RNA (both quantitative and qualitative) and viral genotype, and they all came back negative.
Avatar m tn Each unit must be tested for antibody to HIV with a licensed test kit. There are three types of licensed kits based upon different manufacturing technologies: Whole viral lysates; Recombinant DNA technology; (See the February 1 and August 1, l989, memoranda "Use of the Recombigen HIV-1 LA Test" for further information.) and, Synthetic peptides. Refer to Compliance Program 7342.
579749 tn?1217858569 t know whether I still got virus in my blood or not, OR May be Labs were not using good quality HCV testing kits. Have anybody faced same problem yet ? Can you suggest a good Lab in India for HCV PCR RNA if you know. Confused.........
Avatar n tn I also support maria's advice as many patients of HCV remain asymptomatic and his/her LFT, CBC urine test and ultro sound reflects normal results. Even in my case my abdomin ultra sound, urine test, LFT , CBC including ESR were within normal limits. However i was feeling some symptoms like fatigued and mood swing but one cant relate these symptoms to HCV directly as your mood also changes due to tension etc.
