Pregnancy Tools This table compares at-home pregnancy tests (hpt) results. It lists pregnancy tests in order from most sensitive to least sensitive and gives contact information for each pregnancy test.

Pregnancy Tests Comparison

At what level of hCH do at-home pregnancy tests record positive results?

Home pregnancy tests are listed in a table below in order of most sensitive to least sensitive. The levels are based on phone calls to the manufacturers. The majority of the tests listed are available in the United States, unless otherwise noted after the test name. Two of the tests that are available in the U.S. and in the U.K. are registered for different levels in the different countries (Clearblue Easy and First Response).

In general, tests rated to detect the lowest hCG levels should be able to detect pregnancy sooner than those rated for a higher level. However, it is important to note that this chart rates the manufacturer's claimed sensitivity, not test accuracy. We did not do a laboratory analysis of the tests. Look at the Pregnancy Test FAQ for some comments on different brands. If you are in the U.S. and your test isn't listed, you can search the FDA site and please let either Us or Fertility Plus know!

We recommend visiting FertilityPlus. I want to send a special thank you to Rebecca Waddell for allowing us to reprint their wonderful Pregnancy Test FAQ article, which we have segmented into a few pages here at mommyguide.com.
