Content: Human chorionic gonadotropin can be detected in your urine if you’re pregnant. From early pregnancy, the levels of hCG increase as your pregnancy progresses, peaking at around 8-11 weeks, before dropping to a lower level at 12 and 16 weeks. Some pregnancy test kits can detect hCG levels as low as 10 or 25mIU/ml. If you’re pregnant, at 10 days past ovulation (DPO) you may be able to detect around 25mIU. At 12 days past ovulation, you should be able to detect around 50mIU and at 14 days past ovulation, 100mIU. When to take pregnancy tests
Pregnancy tests are designed to detect levels of hCG produced by your body if you are pregnant. Your body may be producing human chorionic gonadotropin before a missed period, however it’s ideal to take a home pregnancy test on the first day of your missed period. If you take a home pregnancy test before a missed period, you may indeed receive a positive result. But if you take a test before your period is due, you’re more likely to end up with an inaccurate result. Pregnancy tests may produce a negative result if your hCG levels are not yet high enough to detect a pregnancy.
