Positive Test | Negative Test

Unfortunately it takes time to find out if you are pregnant or not.  The pregnancy tests used at Turning Point can detect pregnancy as early as 7 days following conception. 

How the pregnancy test works:
Turning Point uses a professional grade pregnancy test produced by Mainline Technology Inc.  This test measures human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a hormone secreted by the developing placenta shortly after fertilization.  In a normal pregnancy, hCG can be detected in serum (which is excreted in the woman’s urine) as early as 7 days following conception.
Ultimately it is recommended that after a positive pregnancy test, an ultrasound be obtained to confirm the pregnancy test and ensure a healthy pregnancy.

Pregnancy symptoms:
Pregnancy symptoms differ from woman to woman and pregnancy to pregnancy; however, one of the most significant pregnancy symptoms is a delayed or missed menstrual cycle. Understanding the signs and symptoms of pregnancy is important because each symptom may be related to something other than pregnancy. Some women experience signs or symptoms of pregnancy within a week of conception. For other women, pregnancy symptoms may develop over a few weeks or may not be present at all. Below is a list of some of the most common pregnancy signs and symptoms.  However, these same symptoms also often accompany menstruation or even something as simple as stress. Therefore please note, just because you are experiencing some of these symptoms does not necessarily mean you are pregnant.  And to the same extent, just because you are not experiencing any of these symptoms does not necessarily mean you are not pregnant! The best way to find out for sure is to make an appointment for a pregnancy test!
