There is a website that gives the info on
the best hpt. Test that show the lowest
number of miu will be most sensitive to
detect the hcg level. A test with an miu
number of 20-25 would be best. A test
with an miu of 50 would be less sensitive
to detect the hcg level. Check this
website www.Babyhopes.Com

tested a couple days before my period was
due and it came out positive...And then I
tested the day of my expected period and

I've always used the digital read out
tests. The clear-blue has always been a
favorite of mine because it actually says
"pregnant" or "not pregnant".. I've used
the other tests before with the plus or
minus sign, but I just find them too
difficult to read or understand. Plus,
the clear-blue has always been accurate
with me.
Hope that helps!

I just used the cheap equate brand from
wal-mart, pack of two for $8. I tested
the day after I missed my period, and
there was a faint positive. That was on a
wednesday. I then was tested at the
health department on friday, again with a
faint positive.

We used the 2 for 1 deal at walgreens,
they worked just fine. In fact, since we
had to use a fertility specialist to do
the insemination, we tested exactly 14
days after that and had a positive result
with a normal ept generic brand.

I hate ept!!!!! I used them with my
first pregnancy and it took forever to get
my positive.
First repsonse. I swear by them.
They're cheaper and faster!

Hpt= home pregnancy test
ept= early pregnancy test
i think the ept can detect really early
after conception.
As I said in an earlier post, we used the
walgreens brand ept buy1 get1 free and it
was accurate enough to tell us nicole was
preggers exactly 14 days after
insemination. Regardless of how anyone
else feels about them, they do work. I
have a 3 month old boy that we knew was in
there 14 days after becoming a zygote :)

I used the wal-mart equate brand after
asking the pharmacist. He said that
equate is just as good as the name
brands...It worked for me...Tested
positive less than 1 week after I was
late.

Ya..I;ve worked in a pharmacy dispensary
for the past 5 years and the pharmasists
always say that they're all the same...The
generics are just as good---so ya...=)
