Home Pregnancy Tests

If you think you may be pregnant but don't want to wait until your doctors appointment to find out if you are or are not pregnant then a home pregnancy test just might be perfect for you. There are several different brands of home pregnancy tests on the market but there are basically two different types of tests available. Both of these tests measure the pregnancy hormone HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) that is found in a woman's urine during pregnancy.

Home Mold Tests
The most common type of pregnancy test that is used at home is the test stick method. You hold the stick under your urine stream and the stick will change colour if you are pregnant. There are also some digital test sticks that make it very easy by showing "pregnant" or "not pregnant" when the stick is held under the urine stream. The second type of test uses a collection cup for urine instead of the stick that is held under the urine flow. These tests basically work the same though, changing colour if HCG is found in the urine.

There are some important facts to remember when taking home pregnancy tests. Both of these types of tests work the best if the test is taken the first time you urinate in the morning. At this time your urine is more highly concentrated then during the course of the day when it is diluted by how much water or other beverages you are drinking. You are more likely to get a "false negative" if you don't take the test with your first morning urine. Many of these tests advertise that they can show a positive pregnancy result on the first day that you have missed your period. This may be true but you are more likely to get the correct answer if you wait until a week after you have missed your period. Again, if you take the test too soon it may show a negative result when in fact you are pregnant. One more important thing to check is the expiration date; don't use an expired test.

These tests, if used properly, show a high accuracy rate and are affordable. Each kit usually comes with two tests and are very cost effective. Most women find these tests to be a helpful start to the beginning of their pregnancy journey.



Can someone help me understand my home mold test results?
This is what they found altermaria 1 raw count = 40 spores in a cubic meter other ascospores 1 raw count = 40 spores cubic meter cladosporium 7 raw count = 280 spores per cubic meter curvularia 2 raw count = 80 spores per cubic meter epicoccum 2 raw count = 80 spores per cubic other basidospores 6 raw count =240 spores penicillium/aspergillus 52 raw count =2080 spores smuts myxomycetes 3 raw count 120 spores stachybotrys 1 raw count = 40 spores, this is the one that the buyers objected to and backed out of contract on the house. any info would be appreciated as I understand none of this. I believe the tester used some kind of box to sample the air in the rooms of the house. Is an outside test usually taken for comparison?

How should I deal with a damp musty basement?
My husband and I bought our house a year ago. Right after we moved in, our cat sprayed an area of the basement, which is carpeted, in protest. We had a professional come out to clean it, which took care of the smell and staining. About 7 months later, the basement started to smell again, and the carpet was damp. We thought it was the cat spraying again, so we had the carpet recleaned. Again it worked temporarily, but recently the basement started to smell really musty, and we found that the enter area of the basement carpeting was damp. We bought a dehumidifier and ran it for a week, which seemed to dry up the carpet and pull out the musty smell. However, we decided to do a home mold test, and the test came out positive for some sort of mold. We don't know where the water is coming from, so I'm hoping we won't have to rip the carpet up. I'm not against it but of course I would prefer it if we didn't have to. But if there is any other precautions we can take to clean up and prevent this from happening, I'd love to try them. Any advice or suggestions? I should mention, the home mold test we did was a home self-test kit, not a professional test.
