Electronic pregnancy tester. The principle of operation of the electronic test. Unmistakably clear digital results

  • From the date of the expected start of menstruation, a pregnancy test can be performed at any time of the day.
  • If testing is done before the expected start of your period, use the first morning urine of that day.
  • For a more accurate reading of the pregnancy indicator, the first morning urine of that day should be used.
  • Don't drink too much liquid before testing.
Please read this leaflet carefully before taking the test.

1. CONDUCTING THE TEST

When you are ready to test, remove the foil device and remove the blue cap.
Test with the device immediately.

DO A URINE TEST OR COLLECT A URINE SAMPLE IN A CLEAN, DRY CONTAINER

  • Place the downward-facing sampler under the urine stream for only 5 seconds.
  • Be careful not to wet the rest of the dough.
  • Place only the sampler, pointing downwards, into the urine as shown in the figure for a total of 20 seconds.
  • You may need to put on the cap and place the device on a horizontal surface.

2. WAIT...

  • A flashing wait symbol indicates a test is in progress.
  • When the wait symbol stops flashing, the result is displayed. If the wait symbol does not appear during the test, see question 6 in the FAQ section.

During testing, never hold the device with the sampler pointing upwards.

3. CHECK THE RESULT

The digital device for determining the duration of pregnancy has an indicator that displays the estimated time elapsed from the moment of conception.
This information is shown on the display next to the pregnancy result.

  • Through 3 minutes the display will show the result.
  • The Pregnant result may appear on the display before the gestational age indicator result. Wait, until the wait symbol stops flashing and the display shows the gestational age. This may take up to 3 minutes.
  • In some cases, results may appear in as little as 1 minute.
  • The result will remain on the display for about 24 hours.
  • If the result is “Pregnant”, you should contact your doctor for advice on how to proceed. The doctor determines the gestational age from the first day of the last menstruation, and not from the date of conception
  • Conception occurs approximately 2 weeks before the expected onset of menstruation. The gestational age indicator displays approximate information about the time elapsed since conception.
  • The accuracy of determining the date of conception by the gestational age indicator is 92%. The date of conception is determined by the level of the pregnancy hormone - hCG (human chorionic gonadotropic hormone) - in the urine. The level of the hCG hormone can vary from woman to woman, so the results of the gestational age indicator may not be accurate. The Pregnancy/No Pregnancy result is more than 99% accurate when tested from the day you expect your period to start.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

1. How does the Clearblue Digital Pregnancy Test work?
During pregnancy, a woman's body produces the pregnancy hormone - hCG (human chorionic gonadotropic hormone).
In the early stages of pregnancy, the amount of hCG in the body increases. The device can detect even small amounts of this hormone in the urine. (The sensitivity of this test is 25 mIU/mL).
Based on the level of the hCG hormone in the urine, the gestational age indicator displays the estimated time elapsed since conception.

2. How accurate is the device in determining pregnancy?
Laboratory studies have shown that the device is more than 99% accurate in determining pregnancy when used from the date of the expected onset of menstruation. However, if you are tested before your expected period and get a "No Pregnancy" result, there is still a chance that you are pregnant. See question 4.

3. How accurate is the Clearblue digital pregnancy indicator?
The accuracy of determining the date of conception by the indicator is 92%.br The calculation is based on the level of the hCG hormone in the urine. The level of the hCG hormone can vary from woman to woman, so the results of the gestational age indicator may not be accurate.
When testing 6 or more weeks after conception, the indicator may give unexpected results. This is due to the fact that the level of the hCG hormone in the urine is too high to accurately determine the time from the moment of conception.

4. When can I test with the Clearblue Digital Pregnancy Tester?
The digital device for determining the duration of pregnancy "Clearblue" can be used no earlier than 4 days before the expected start of menstruation.
However, if you are tested before your expected period and get a "No Pregnancy" result, there is a possibility that you are pregnant.
The table below shows the results of clinical studies of the Clearblue Digital Pregnancy Test in the early stages of pregnancy.

Early testing
It is recommended that you test with the Clearblue device from the day you expect your period to begin. However, the amount of pregnancy hormone increases rapidly in early pregnancy and the Clearblue Digital Pregnancy Device can be used for testing as early as 4 days before your expected period.
During clinical trials with samples taken from women at an early stage of pregnancy, the digital device for determining the duration of pregnancy "Clearblue" (Clearblue) showed the following results:


If the result is “No Pregnancy” but pregnancy is suspected, see question 12.
To calculate the day you expect your period to start, use your normal cycle length, counting the number of days from the first day of your period to the day your next period is due.
  • If your cycle is irregular, you should take into account the longest cycle in recent months when testing.
  • If you do not know when your period should start, it is recommended that you test no earlier than 19 days after your last unprotected sex.

5. Can any medication or condition affect the results?

  • Be sure to read the manufacturer's instructions for any medicines you are taking before testing.
  • Fertility drugs that contain the hormone hCG can cause erroneous results (these fertility drugs are usually given by injection, and testing within a short period of time after the injection may result in a false pregnancy result).
  • Other fertility drugs (such as clomiphene citrate), pain medications, and hormonal contraceptives (such as birth control pills) should not interfere with the outcome.
  • If you have recently stopped using hormonal contraception or are taking fertility treatments such as clomiphene citrate, your menstrual cycle may be irregular, which could lead to premature testing.
  • If you have recently been pregnant (including a miscarriage or aborted pregnancy), a false Pregnancy result may be obtained.
  • If you are already or about to go through menopause, you may get a false pregnancy result even though you are not pregnant.
    When examining non-pregnant perimenopausal and menopausal women using the Clearblue digital gestational age device, approximately 0.2% Pregnant results were obtained from different batches, with a range of 0 to 0.5% for various parties. All false positives were in women over 50 years of age.
  • Ectopic pregnancy and ovarian cysts can cause erroneous results.
  • Multiple and ectopic pregnancies can cause erroneous results of the gestational age indicator.
  • In the early stages, pregnancy can be terminated naturally. If you get a “Pregnant” result, you may find out later that you are not pregnant because the pregnancy ended naturally. In this case, the indicator may display unexpected results.
If you get unexpected results, you should discuss them with your doctor.

6. I used the device, but the wait symbol did not appear. What does this mean?
The test is not working properly. See the Testing Errors section.

7. I used the device, but the result did not appear on the display. What does this mean?
Your result should appear on the display within 3 minutes. If the result does not appear, see the Testing Errors section.

8. The result of my testing is "There is a pregnancy." What should I do?
If the result is “Pregnant”, you should contact your doctor for advice on how to proceed.
The gestational age indicator only roughly shows when conception occurred. The doctor will calculate the stage of pregnancy on the first day of the last menstruation.
Conception occurs approximately 2 weeks before the expected onset of menstruation.

9. My test result is “Pregnant”, but I believe that conception could not have occurred on the date determined by the gestational age indicator. Is it possible?
The gestational age indicator is 92% accurate when tested using the first daily urine sample. Certain medications or body conditions may affect the result. See question 5.

10. I took a test yesterday, the result is "There is a pregnancy." I retested today and according to the gestational age indicator, the number of weeks since conception has decreased. What should I do?
The level of the hCG hormone fluctuates as it increases, so there is a chance that the gestational age indicator will give unexpected results when testing on consecutive days.
Repeat the test after 5 days and if the gestational age indicator again shows that the number of weeks since conception has decreased, see question 11.

11. I took a test a week ago, the result is "There is a pregnancy." I repeated the test, and according to the indicator, the number of weeks since conception has decreased. What should I do?
If the test was performed according to the instructions, using the first morning urine in both cases, and the indicator shows unexpected results, a doctor should be consulted.

12. The result of my testing is "No Pregnancy". What should I do? You may not be pregnant, or your pregnancy hormone levels are not high enough to be detected.
In addition, you may have incorrectly calculated the day of the expected menstruation.

  • If you test early, test again after the day you expect your period to start.
  • If your period is delayed, retest after 3 days.
If the test results are "No Pregnant" but you still don't have a period, see your doctor.

ERRORS IN TESTING

Sample Receive Error (Book indicator on display) - An error occurred during testing.
The following reasons are possible:

  • The sampler was not pointing down, or the test was not placed on a flat surface after the urine was ingested.
  • Not enough or too much urine has been used.
Retest with a new test and follow the instructions carefully.

Blank display error - The test was not carried out properly. This may be due to non-compliance with the instructions for use.
Another test needs to be done. Carefully follow the instructions for use.

DISPOSAL OF THE DOUGH
Remove the battery from the test strip before disposing of the test.
The battery must be disposed of in accordance with the relevant regulations.
To remove the battery, insert a coin into the slot at the end of the test strip and twist it to open the back of the test strip. If the battery is not visible, pull the battery holder in the direction of the arrow to help remove the battery.

Attention! Do not disassemble, recharge, or throw batteries into a fire.

To date, pregnancy tests are presented in a wide range. There are several types of tests:

  • Strip tests: special strips that must be dipped into a container with urine, the sensitivity threshold is 10-25 mIU / ml (the amount of hCG in 1 ml of urine).
  • Tablet: a plastic case in which a window with a substance sensitive to hCG is located. A few drops of urine should be added to this window. The threshold of sensitivity is 10-25mIU / ml.
  • Inkjet: do not require urine collection in a separate container - a pregnancy test can be carried out directly during urination, substituting the analyzer under the stream. Sensitivity threshold from 10mIU/ml.
  • Electronic (digital): have several varieties and can be intended for multiple use or determining the duration of pregnancy, etc.

Each test type has its own advantages and disadvantages. And which pregnancy tests are the best, we will try to figure it out now.

Frautest Express Ultra Sensitive


Photo: frautest.ru

The cost of a package with one strip test is about 85 rubles.

The sensitivity of the Frautest Express pregnancy test starts at 15 mIU / ml and, according to the manufacturer, it can be used without waiting for a delay in menstruation, and even 2 days before the date when (possibly) the countdown from the "missed" first day of menstruation begins. The test determines the results 3-5 minutes after you have removed the strip from the urine container.

Flaws. Having to look for a container for urine, fill it up, withstand a strip test in it for 10 seconds, and then think about how to dispose of the filled “container” is not very convenient in an out-of-home environment.

Advantages of this pregnancy test - ease of use and high reliability of results (up to 99%). Well, let's not pretend that the cost does not matter. The democratic price is a huge plus.

conclusions. One of the best pregnancy tests. A well-deserved score of 10 out of 10.

Reviews.“I have already bought a test from this company twice, or rather, this time his husband bought it, and he did not disappoint again. My opinion is that there is no need to buy expensive tests, even if they tend to show the number of weeks. This pregnancy test is reliable, It is sold in all pharmacies, it is convenient to use and attractive at a price.

Frautest Planning


Photo: frautest.ru

The cost of a set of 5 strip tests for determining ovulation, 2 for pregnancy and 7 disposable containers for collecting urine is about 380 rubles.

Another "nominee" from the Hungarian company Human takes a leading position in the ranking of the best pregnancy tests. Frautest Planning is an excellent tool for women who are planning a pregnancy and who want to make sure of the fact of its occurrence (well, or the need to keep trying) without leaving the cash register.

The thoughtful configuration of this strip kit allows you to cover the entire period from the probable date of the onset of ovulation and “catch” the moment necessary for conception, before pregnancy is determined (you can start checking 2 days before the expected day of delay). An additional bonus is disposable urine collection containers that are easily disposed of and allow you to pass the test in any conditions.

Flaws. The only drawback is the high cost. But this is only at first glance: the same set, but “scattered” in separate packages, will cost about 70 rubles more.

conclusions. The best pregnancy test for those who care not only about the right lifestyle from the first days of pregnancy, but also understand the importance of planning this fateful moment. Well deserved ten!

Reviews. « I made a big mistake several times when I used ovulation tests and pregnancy tests from different manufacturers. The consequences were, to put it mildly, painful for my nervous system. 3 months after using Frautest for planning, I finally got to the right “schedule”. The result - in the fourth month, a pregnancy test confirmed that you can rejoice. I highly recommend - expensive, but reliable and not confusing with false results.

Clearblue Digital

The cost of a package with 1 digital test is about 480 rubles.

Advantages. If we take as a unit of quality the percentage of accuracy with which the test determines the presence of pregnancy, then Clearblue Digital takes an incredibly high bar: above 99%. One hundred percent accuracy is within reach, and this test is by far one of the most reliable. But that's not all. In addition to the mark on the presence / absence of pregnancy (“+” - yes, “-” - no), a figure will appear in the window indicating the gestational age in weeks. The format of indicators corresponds to the range of 1-2 weeks, 2-3 weeks and more than three (the display will show the image “3+”). If conception did occur, then the accuracy of determining the term, according to the manufacturer and the results of research, is 92%. Impressive, isn't it?

With a delay in menstruation, the test can be used from the very first day of their intended start. But if “it’s unbearable to wait,” and the body persistently hints at your interesting situation in other ways (for example, by the desire to eat persimmon, after smearing it with toothpaste), then the test can be done 4 days before the date of the probable delay.

Flaws. Not everyone will consider determining the duration of pregnancy a necessary function. All the same, a visit to the doctor, an ultrasound examination and blood tests are still ahead - in the aggregate, all this will set the deadline without a test. But let's remember the "surprises" of pregnancy, which can easily coexist with regular periods. In this case, it is often important for a woman to understand: how long she is, and whether she has enough time to go to the antenatal clinic and register. A classic example is a long business trip or business trip, when the dilemma “drop everything and go home vs there is still time, you can wait” breaks all plans. So, whether this is a disadvantage or not, it's up to you.

conclusions. Considering that not everyone is interested in setting an exact period without going to the doctor, but this function makes the price “bite”, then the rating is 9 out of 10.

Reviews. “I felt something was wrong as soon as I arrived on vacation. With my floating and irregular monthly cycle, I assumed that the pregnancy might not be early. The Cleablue test showed that I had been in the position for more than three weeks. I limited myself to attractions and other active entertainment, and when I returned a week later and went to the doctor, the period turned out to be 6 weeks. The test did not disappoint.

Evitest Proof

The cost of a package with one tablet test is about 190 rubles.

Advantages. The main advantage relates, rather, to the design of the test: the tablet model allows more even distribution of urine over the surface of the substrate with the reagent, which, accordingly, increases the reliability of the results. The second plus is the "purity" of the results. It is impossible to touch the reagent, which is located in the recess of the window, even by accident, so the possible contamination of the sample (far from a fantastic event, by the way) is simply excluded.

Flaws. Perhaps you will feel like a professor in a chemical laboratory, who carefully and carefully introduces a special substance (urine) onto the surface of the object (test) being examined so that an explosion does not occur. Nothing really explodes, except maybe your patience if you're nervous and your hands are shaking. Therefore, it is better to conduct "experiments" at home, where you can afford to relax (or at least pretend) and finish what you started.

conclusions. One of the best tablet pregnancy tests in terms of accuracy. And that's the main reason why you decided to buy it, isn't it? So, to give him a rating of 10 out of 10 would be correct and fair.

Reviews. « For a long time she was treated for infertility and used only this test. I don’t even know why - I was superstitiously afraid to change it to another. And after 2 years, he showed a positive result for the first time! positive and correct».

Premium Diagnostics

The cost of packaging with one inkjet test is about 120 rubles.

Advantages. A quick and accurate result (up to 99% - if the test is carried out after the first day of delay), for which there is no need to collect urine - an excellent alternative to the "strip" traditions. At the same time, in the cassette, which is a test, a control window is provided. Regardless of whether the result is positive or not - if a red line appears in the control window - the test was carried out correctly.

Flaws. The ability to perform a test without the need to collect urine for some will prove to be a very useful quality of the test, for some it is inconvenient. But, as they say, you won’t be nice to everyone - we won’t rank this as a minus.

conclusions. An excellent pregnancy test that will fulfill its purpose both in a cozy home environment and in "marching" conditions, when there is no time or opportunity to look for and fill a urine container. In our opinion, 10 points is a well-deserved rating.

Diagnostic tests allow you to satisfy the desire of a woman to know about the onset of pregnancy as soon as possible. The main advantage is a quick result without leaving home. It works on the principle of detecting the hCG hormone, which is produced after the embryo is attached to the uterus.

Today, electronic pregnancy tests are gaining popularity. They are the most accurate. They allow not only to confirm or deny the fact of conception, but also to indicate the period.

Primary diagnosis is most often carried out using disposable strips. The result is analyzed depending on the number of dashes that appear. One speaks of the absence of pregnancy, two - conception has occurred. They have their drawbacks. Often the second strip is not clear and blurry. And there are times when the dash disappears altogether. The woman begins to doubt and wonder, as well as plan a visit to the gynecologist to get a clear answer.

A digital pregnancy test is applied at an early stage and gives an accurate result. The device is highly sensitive. The study can be carried out from the first week of delay. The result is shown on the display.

Outwardly, a digital pregnancy test with a due date indicator looks like a regular tablet. Made from plastic. Each device comes with detailed instructions. Sensitivity - from 14 to 34 mIU. The lower the value, the earlier it can be applied. The manufacturer claims that the correct result can be obtained a week before the expected date of menstruation.

Types of digital tests

Manufacturers of electronic tests offer both disposable and reusable devices. The consumer has plenty to choose from, given their financial capabilities. Reusable electronic

a pregnancy test is more expensive, but it is more functional. To reuse, just replace the cartridge. A disposable device is used only once. For many couples, this is enough.

Every year the range of electronic devices is supplemented with new models. One popular test is Clearblue. Produced in Switzerland. Has high accuracy and stylish design.

The Clearblue digital pregnancy test is equivalent in performance to an ultrasound scan. A special sensor is endowed with intellectual abilities. It will not only determine the condition, but also show the approximate gestational age.

The cost of devices is in the range from 400 to 500 rubles. Reusable ones are much more expensive, their price is 1300 rubles.

Benefits of the test

The main advantage of the electronic test is its high sensitivity. If you use the device a week before the expected date of menstruation, the accuracy is within 50%, and it tends to increase.

Already on the first day of delayed menstruation, the accuracy is 99%. It becomes clear that the risk of error is minimal.

The digital device allows you to get an unambiguous result, which is stored on the screen for 24 hours.

The device can show the estimated date of conception and term.

The reusable digital pregnancy test comes with a set of replacement cartridges. They must be changed after each study.

The principle of operation of the electronic test

The device has an absorbent element that is sensitive to an increase in the level of hCG. After fixing the fetal egg on the wall of the uterus, its increased production begins. 5 days after the implantation process, the amount of hormones doubles.

With early diagnosis, a morning portion of urine is used. The day before, you should not drink a large amount of liquid.

For analysis, open the foil, remove the test and remove the cap. Hold the tip under the stream of urine for 5 seconds. Do not allow liquid to come into contact with any other part of the instrument.

The second option is to collect urine in a clean plastic container and lower the test for 20 seconds.

Important! Throughout the analysis, the tip should be kept lowered down.

The result is stored on the screen for a day.

Instructions for use

The kit includes instructions for an electronic pregnancy test. Let's take a closer look:

  1. The test is carried out in the morning, not earlier than 3 days before the expected date of menstruation.
  2. It is forbidden to drink a large amount of liquid the day before.
  3. Remove the cap and hold the test under a stream of urine.
  4. Wait until the hourglass appears on the screen. The analysis lasts 3 minutes. The result is stored for 24 hours.
  5. Upon completion of the test, the result will appear in the form of an inscription, a plus or a smiling smiley.
  6. If the result is positive, the display will additionally display the gestational age in weeks.

Does the electronic test detect an ectopic pregnancy?

Pregnancy is considered normal when, after ovulation, the egg enters the fallopian tube. During the meeting with the sperm, fertilization and the formation of the embryo occur. The next stage is its advancement to the uterus and implantation to its wall.

For some reason, the sperm may remain in the fallopian tube and attach to its wall after a week. This phenomenon is called an ectopic or tubal pregnancy.

Many are concerned about the question - does the test determine it?

Yes, the device will show a positive result. To identify it, it is necessary to conduct a study in a week or two. If the period has not changed, then the probability of an ectopic pregnancy is high. After all, the level of hCG in this case will rise very slowly.

Symptoms:

  • pulling pains in the lower abdomen;
  • with a positive pregnancy test, spotting appears.

Probability of a given test error

The possibility of error always exists, even when performing an ultrasound examination.

Incorrect result situations:

  1. test damage;
  2. expired expiration date;
  3. violation of storage conditions;
  4. misuse.

A false negative result can be obtained when:

  • early diagnosis. The level of increase in hCG for each woman is individual. A study conducted a week before the date of menstruation may give an erroneous result.
  • With a late onset of ovulation, conception occurs later and hCG levels are low.
  • Weak urine concentration. Diagnosis in the morning will help eliminate this cause. At night, urine production slows down, while metabolic products accumulate in it. When taking diuretics, urine has a weak concentration.
  • pathology of pregnancy. If the embryo is frozen or there is an ectopic pregnancy, then the production of hormones stops or remains at the same level. And this should cause concern.
  • Kidney disease.

A false positive result occurs when the test showed the onset of pregnancy, but it, in fact, is not.

Main reasons:

  1. Tumors that lead to an increase in hCG.
  2. Disruptions of a hormonal nature.
  3. recent abortion or miscarriage.
  4. Taking hormonal drugs.

Electronic pregnancy test, the price of which is much higher than that of test strips, however, is becoming increasingly popular, and this is easily explained.

A highly sensitive accurate test that can answer yes or no even 4-5 days before the delay, which will tell your due date to the nearest day, and if not pregnant - will tell you the best time to conceive - this, of course, is a very comfortable and effective invention for expectant mothers .

In Russia, the clearblue electronic pregnancy test has become most famous. Unlike a regular test, it does not give either results, only a solid yes or a solid no is possible.

The cost of an electronic pregnancy test is about 700-800 rubles, however, it has undoubted advantages. In this article, we will compare it with the usual tests:

The definition of pregnancy using conventional tests is accurate in 99% of cases, however, there are difficulties in interpreting the result, as a result, every fourth woman does not understand if she is pregnant after taking the test. An electronic pregnancy test eliminates this error because there are only two answers, yes or no, and no options in between.

The sensitivity of a conventional pregnancy test is from 20-25 IU. Clearblue, a new generation electronic pregnancy test, detects pregnancy in the presence of only 10 IU of human chorionic gonadotropin in the blood. And this is the deadline for another 3-4 days before the delay.

If the test strips can change color as they dry, a new electronic pregnancy test will never fail. You will see the result on the display after 3 minutes, and it will not change and will remain for 24 hours.

The feedback from women, and most importantly, the recommendations of doctors, suggests that now this is the best home testing system, however, electronic test manufacturers have outdone themselves, and a unique electronic pregnancy test has been created,.

You can repeat the test several times to ensure the result, while maintaining the accuracy and ease of use characteristic of the entire line of electronic tests.

Electronic pregnancy test, instruction

The instruction for an electronic pregnancy test recommends that it be carried out starting from the first day of a missed period, then 99% accuracy of the results is guaranteed. However, the test can also be used for a preliminary result, 4 days before the delay, it is already able to show pregnancy.

As usual, a fresh morning portion of urine is examined.

How to use:

Remove the packaging and cap from the test, place it under the stream of urine, place the test on a flat surface and wait for the result for a maximum of 3 minutes. The blue control strip will tell you that you did everything right. As a rule, the result is ready in just a minute.

It is important to know that the blue line in the control window indicates the correct use of the test and the result will appear within one minute. This is how a one-time electronic pregnancy test is used, for reusable tests there are special cartridges with which these manipulations are performed.

Since a whole line of electronic pregnancy tests has been created, each has its own characteristics when used. Reusable tests provide the most information, this is a test that determines the gestational age. If it is negative, then you will receive information about the best day for conception.

You can now buy an electronic pregnancy test both in pharmacies and via the Internet, you can simply order it in the online store. They are designed for your comfort and complete confidence in the results in such an exciting business as conceiving a child.

To determine pregnancy at home, there are special tests. And if earlier they were limited to simple stripes, now there is a wide choice of them. The simplest are still strips, while the most accurate are electronic pregnancy tests. There are also inkjet and tablet tests. The first type is more convenient to use, the second requires filling a special reservoir with urine, after which the results are obtained.

The pregnancy test works according to the following principle. From the first child in the urine of a woman, the amount of chorionic gonadotropin sharply increases. Devices are treated with a special substance that reacts sharply to the presence of hCG, as a result of which it shows a positive result.

The most effective, modern and convenient today are electronic pregnancy tests. They have a number of advantages over other methods of determining First, results. When using this device, the reliability of the result is 99%.

If urine gets on the test cartridge, the display of the device displays the inscription: “pregnant”, if the result is positive, or “not pregnant”, if the result is negative.

It is worth noting that, no matter how reliable data is shown by electronic pregnancy tests, in the early stages it is recommended to re-analyze 5-6 days after the first determination.

Thus, the electronic test is the most convenient device to use, the definition of pregnancy by it is the most accurate. Its only drawback is the high cost, several times higher than the cheapest and simplest disposable test strips. And precisely because of this, electronic pregnancy tests have not yet become widespread among the female population.
