Lost Ept Instructions- Help Posted: 01-11-06 12:18pm
I have my early-morning urine sample just
waiting to be tested with ept, but the
test came from a 2-pack kit and I
accidentally threw away the instructions
and box. If you are going to dip the test
stick, how many seconds do you hold it in
the urine? Is it 20 seconds for the dip
method?

I used clearblue, and the instructions say
5 seconds....

I am trying to remember from having taken
a previous ept brand test, if the 5-second
rule was for the "stream" method and the
"dip" method was 20, or the other way
around. I do recall that one method was
longer than that 5-second interval.
Thanks for the reply ... This is so
nerve-wracking and I do not have anybody
to go through this with.

Sweetie, dip it in the urine for 20
seconds. You're supposed to keep it in
the stream for 5 seconds, and dip for 20.
Now take that test and let us know what
the results are. Good luck!

Thank you! I am running off right now to
go do that. Thanks, both of you, for the
help.
Well sometimes a women doesn't produce
enough pregnancy hormone to have a
positive home preg. Test. If you still
suspect you are I would go to your doctor
and get a blood test. Good luck, and keep
us updated!
