can u use blood instead of urine in a normal urine home pregancy test?

Question

Hi. Anemic blood test come back normal. And home Pregnancy test few days ago come back negative. But now 2 days late. What else could be wrong? Im 19

Answer 1

No: Home pregnancy tests kits are designed for testing urine only. Use first morning urine and do the test 4-5 days after a missed period.

Answer 2

Low CO2, alkalemia: Deep or rapid breathing removes more gaseous co2 leading to less co2 in the blood and associated alkalemia - it has a minimal effect on oxygenation except in disease states.

Answer 3

There is a range: Ideal BP is below 120/70, acceptable BP is below 130/80. Consistent readings above these ranges need to be monitored and treated under the care of your physician. Generally, physical fitness is important in maintaining BP in the healthy range.

Answer 4

It varies: It can take weeks to months, but you may be able to get pregnant again before your next period comes, so be careful or have fun depending....

Answer 5

Everything as usual: Make sure you are doing more for your oral hygiene, and stay up on your dental work so that you do not have avoidable dental concerns along the way. A good cleaning is important to get you started. Congrats with the new baby.

Answer 6

Many things: Most dental issues related to pregnancy deal with gum problems. However, the dentist should evaluate your dental needs as normally. He will look for cavities, TMJ issues, oral cancer screen, gum tissues...Etc. Make sure the dentist uses a lead apron with a thyroid collar if x-rays are necessary. The important issue is that some dental diseases may affect the health of the fetus.

Answer 7

As required: But the more often you empty it likely you will result in smaller and smaller volumes. As your blotter volume diminishes the problem will likely increase.

Answer 8

Bladder diary: Another option is to complete a voiding diary. This is a record of how much you drink, how much and how often you void and if you have any leakage. It is typically done for 3 days (which don't have to be in a row) and then reviewed by a urogynecologist or urologist. They can recommend treatments such as bladder training, physical therapy, medication or surgery as needed.
