Content: One of the major benefits of using a test that checks the hormone levels in urine is that there are many of these tests available in stores. This allows you to take a pregnancy test in the privacy of your own home at a time that is convenient for you. However, it does take the pregnancy hormones longer to show up in urine than in blood. This means that you cannot get the result as soon as you can with a blood test. By the time of a missed period about 3 in 4 pregnant women have a positive pregnancy test. The best time to take this test is first thing in the morning when the hormone concentration is highest. However, some of the newer tests claim to work equally well at any time of day. Another benefit is the immediacy of the results. In as few as three minutes, you can have the results of your test. It is important to note that a negative home pregnancy test is not 100% reliable although a positive test usually means you are pregnant.
