CORE Pregnancy Test Strip (hCG PT Strip)
The CORE Pregnancy Test Strip (popularly known as a PT strip in Nigeria) is a rapid and reliable diagnostic tool for the early detection of pregnancy. It works by detecting human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine, a hormone produced shortly after conception.
Whether you are checking for "sharp relief" from uncertainty or monitoring your fertility journey, this hCG PT strip provides laboratory-grade accuracy in the comfort of your home. It is designed for both clinical and personal use, delivering results you can trust.
Key Benefits of CORE PT Strip
- High Sensitivity: Detects hCG levels as low as 10-25 mIU/mL, allowing for detection from the first day of a missed period.
- Fast Results: Get clear answers in just 3 to 5 minutes.
- 99% Accuracy: Clinically proven to be over 99% accurate when used according to the instructions.
- Affordable Price: A cost-effective solution compared to midstream tests.
How to Use the Pregnancy Test Strip (Step-by-Step)
For the most accurate result with your pregnancy strip, follow these steps:
- Collect Urine: Collect a fresh urine sample in a clean, dry container. For the best accuracy, use your first morning urine.
- Dip the Strip: Immerse the CORE Pregnancy Test Strip vertically into the urine with the arrows pointing down. Do not allow the urine level to go past the 'MAX' line.
- Wait: Remove the strip after 10-15 seconds and lay it flat on a level, non-absorbent surface.
- Read Results: Wait for the colored lines to appear. Read the result between 3 and 5 minutes. Do not interpret results after 10 minutes.
Understanding Your PT Strip Results
- Positive (Two Lines): If two colored lines appear—one in the Control (C) region and one in the Test (T) region—you are pregnant. Even a faint line in the 'T' region indicates a positive result.
- Negative (One Line): If only one colored line appears in the Control (C) region, the test is negative.
- Invalid: If no line appears in the Control (C) region, the test is invalid. Repeat with a new strip.
