Tests

[Hays]

So I'm 9dpo and since Tuesday I've had night sweats, hot flushes and nausea. My cheap strip tests are all negative, I don't understand why I feel the way I do but negative tests. Do other tests detect hcg quicker? Am I using one wrong ones or ofcourse maybe I'm just not pregnant

if you want to test early, the cheap tests typically aren't going to be of use. They detect higher amounts of hcg in urine usually from 12dpo at the earliest, which is why they say to use after a missed period (which is typically 14dpo by their standards). For early testing I use First Response 6 Days Sooner, which have given me a positive as early as 8dpo, but they have been showing faint "indent" lines recently so be careful when reading them. That said, your symptoms could be unrelated to pregnancy. Me and so many others have felt very pregnant on cycles we weren't. Good luck, I hope you get the results you want on the next test!
