Frautest jet. Frautest pregnancy test: instructions for use and reviews

A pregnancy test is a simple and affordable device that, already in the first days of a delay in menstruation, allows you to determine whether conception has occurred. German-made Frautest products are diverse. And at first glance it is difficult to understand which test is better to use.

How Frautest works

Frautest, like other pregnancy tests, contains a reagent that allows you to detect the presence of the hormone hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) in the urine. This hormone appears in the urine after fertilization of the egg, is responsible for the development of pregnancy and stops the functioning of the ovaries for the period of bearing the baby. The concentration of the hormone in the urine is growing every day, and the test is able to respond to it already on the 10-14th day after ovulation and conception.

All tests determine the presence or absence of hCG in the urine

A strip of any test is impregnated with a special chemical, which, upon contact with hCG (with an increase in its level), can be stained in contrasting color and give the corresponding result (two strips - the presence of pregnancy). If there is no pregnancy hormone in the urine, then the result of the test will be negative (one strip).

After wetting the strips in the urine, the test shows one line - the control. Her appearance serves as confirmation that all manipulations were carried out correctly. Soon a second strip appears (or is absent), which becomes an indicator of the presence or absence of pregnancy.

Frautest and its sensitivity

The concentration of the hormone in the urine increases every day after conception from 5 to 25 mIU / ml (two weeks after fertilization). Majority pharmacy tests responds to a hormone level of at least 20-25 mIU / ml. This is enough to detect pregnancy in the first days of delayed menstruation. Peculiarity hypersensitive tests Frautest - the ability to determine the presence of hCG even at a low concentration, already at 15 mIU / ml. Accordingly, you can find out about pregnancy even before the planned menstruation (1-2 days before). However, the results obtained after the day of the delay of menstruation are still considered the most reliable. In this case, the veracity of the test is about 99%.

How more days elapsed since the day of the delay, the more reliable the test results

Frautest Express test - the most affordable Frautest Exclusive test has an elegant design The tablet test has two windows - for collecting urine and evaluating results

Application rules

Before using the test, read the instructions in the package. In general, it does not differ from the test instructions of other manufacturers. Its observance will help to avoid mistakes and get reliable result. Try to purchase devices in trusted pharmacies, check the integrity of the protective shell on the package, the expiration date. Experts advise testing in morning time when the concentration of hCG in urine is highest. This recommendation is especially relevant if the procedure is carried out before the delay of menstruation.

On early dates gestation, the second strip is often paler than the first

General Instructions

Strips, as well as inkjet and tablet devices Frautest, have general rules applications and some differences. When using any type of product, it is important to observe the time frame when evaluating the results: not less than 3 and not more than 10 minutes after contact with urine.

We list the general procedure:

Conduct the test no earlier than 1-2 days before the expected date of the start of menstruation.
Open the package, remove the test from the box and protective shell.
Apply urine to the tip of the test in a manner suitable for your model (it is prescribed in the instructions).
Place the instrument on a dry horizontal surface.
Make sure the control line appears.
Evaluate the result after the period recommended in the instructions.

In any type of test, the appearance of a second line indicates the presence of pregnancy, even if it is barely noticeable, but Pink colour. This result is often observed with too early diagnosis, when hCG level still low, but already determined by the test. If only one control band is present on the test, then there is no pregnancy. The absence of one line indicates a malfunction of the test or a violation of the instructions for use (use of an insufficient volume of urine, incorrect wetting site, etc.).

The nuances of using different types of Frautest

Different Frautest models differ in the method of applying urine and some other features. Let's consider them in more detail:

test strips (Express, Double control) must be lowered into the container with urine to the control mark for 5-10 seconds. The result appears within 3-5 minutes;
using tablet test Expert is required to collect urine, and then use a pipette to drop urine into a special window. The result is displayed in another window as one or two lines;
The inkjet tests of the Comfort and Exclusive series do not require urine collection. It is enough to substitute the tip of the device under the stream of urine during urination. Then the tip is closed with a cap and “forget” about the test for 3-5 minutes. After the allotted time, the presence of one or two strips is assessed.

Can a test cheat?

In 99%, the test gives a reliable result if the quality of this product is not in doubt, and the procedure is carried out correctly. If the test is expired, is not an original product, has been stored under conditions high humidity or when high temperatures, then the result may be wrong. Foreign matter must not be introduced into the urine sample. Statistically, false negative test results are much more common than false positive ones.

We list the factors that often cause a false negative test result:

drying, deterioration of the reagent due to improper storage, expiration of the expiration date;
too early diagnosis (before the expected date of menstruation);
taking diuretics, a large number liquids before the procedure;
evaluation of test results earlier three minutes after the application of urine;
insufficient amount of urine on the test;
ectopic pregnancy;
kidney disease and cardiovascular systems s.

Possible reasons for a false positive result:

taking medications that increase the level of hCG in the body (for menopause, infertility treatment, etc.);
tumors of the uterus, ovaries;
recent abortion.

If the strip appeared white line, then this is most likely caused by an excessive amount of urine (a strip with a reagent stood out against the background of the surface). With a true positive result, the second strip, like the first, has a bright pink color.

It can be found on the shelves of Russian pharmacies and supermarkets for a long time. Relatively inexpensive devices early diagnosis pregnancy are simple and easy to use.

Frautest Pregnancy Test Conclusions

Subject to all points of the test instructions, the accuracy of its result reaches 99%. If a woman has doubts about the accuracy of a certain brand test, then it is better to purchase 2-3 packs from different manufacturers or check the hCG level with a blood test.

Pregnancy test - simple but pretty reliable way checking the presence or absence of pregnancy in the early stages, which can be done at home. Let's try to understand the types of tests, the mechanism of their work and how to apply them correctly.

How Pregnancy Tests Work

After conception has occurred, a specific substance begins to be synthesized in the woman's body - human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). A special reagent is applied to the surface of the test strip, which, interacting with hCG, activates the dye bright color. As the embryo develops, the level of hCG in the blood increases, which is the reason for the intensity of the color of the second strip. The first, control, strip contains a different reagent, so it appears when the test is immersed in any liquid.

The level of hCG in the urine is slightly lower than in the blood, so a pregnancy test is best done on the first day of the expected date of the onset of menstruation.

Sensitivity of pregnancy tests

HCG is a hormone produced by chorionic cells, it appears in the blood on the fifth or sixth day from the moment of conception. In the very early stages of pregnancy, its amount in the body doubles every 2-3 days. The maximum concentration of hCG is recorded at the 10th week of pregnancy, after which its content in the blood begins to decline rapidly.

Tests for diagnosing pregnancy differ in the ability of the reagent to detect fluctuations in the level of hCG in the urine. Test packages indicate their sensitivity - 10.15, 20, 25, 30 mIU / ml (hCG level is measured in international units than less figure the more sensitive the test is considered).

In pharmacies, the most common tests that determine pregnancy as having occurred are at a concentration of hCG in the urine of 20-25 mIU / ml. There are more sensitive tests that are able to diagnose pregnancy at an hCG level of 10 mIU / ml (marking on the package - 10), 15 mIU / ml (marking - 15), etc. However, packages labeled 20 mIU/mL are more reliable and less likely to give incorrect results.

Common Mistakes When Using Pregnancy Tests

To avoid false results, it is necessary to strictly follow the procedure indicated in the instructions, because. different companies and different types tests may differ in the mechanism for diagnosing pregnancy. Errors that can give false results:

The most common mistake is using a test before the onset delays menstrual cycle. It is clear that every woman wants to know the result as soon as possible, but if the test shows the absence of pregnancy, this will lead to unnecessary stress. Therefore, it is better to wait until the first day of delayed menstruation (for tests, with a sensitivity of 20 mIU / ml) and conduct a study.
Another common mistake is interpreting test results too early or too late. In this matter, you must strictly follow the instructions! The result, which appeared 10 minutes after the application of the test, is most often considered invalid.
Some women keep their pregnancy tests in the refrigerator. In this case, before conducting the study, it is necessary that it warms up to room temperature. Otherwise, the result may be false.
A few hours before the test, it is not recommended to drink large amounts of water. This reduces the concentration of hCG in the urine.
The area of the pregnancy test, on which the reagent is applied, should not be touched by hands, dirt or foreign liquids should not get on it.

False pregnancy test results

There are times when . Why is it so?

False negative result

early testing. The instructions for most tests indicate that it is better to conduct a study on the first day of a missed period. If you are pregnant, then just by this day the hCG level will reach such numbers that the test can “detect”;
drinking large amounts of fluid 4-5 hours before testing. Also false negative result may be when taking diuretics;
improper storage;
non-compliance with instructions;
expiration date;
diseases of the urinary and cardiovascular systems of a woman that prevent the full release of hCG in the urine;
threatened miscarriage, miscarriage.

False positive result

taking drugs that include hCG (injectables for infertility);
postpartum period. In some women, the test may be positive even a few weeks after giving birth;
some tumor diseases that contribute to the production of hCG;
after an abortion, the test may show a second strip for several weeks.

Be aware of the possibility of an ectopic pregnancy. The test result may also be positive. Therefore, to avoid possible complications you need to consult a gynecologist.

The last option for me personally is much more compact in application)

Delayed menstruation is the first sign of pregnancy, so it is recommended to use tests to determine it for early stages. One of the most popular is Frautest. Consider whether it is possible to use Frautest before the delay of menstruation and the features of this brand.

Optimal timing for analytics

The first test is best done on the first day of the absence of monthly bleeding or a little later. Such periods are recommended due to the peculiarity of the reaction of the test strips.

Highly sensitive Frautest tests before delay

They detect the concentration of hCG levels in the urine of a pregnant woman. When the value of the pregnancy hormone reaches 20-25 mIU / ml, the test reagent is able to determine it and give a positive result. HCG begins to be produced immediately after the embryo is attached to the wall of the uterus, first by the outer membrane of the fetus, the chorion, and then by the placenta.

Up to 7-8 weeks, its presence in the blood doubles every 1.5-2 days. Because the later the analysis is carried out, the more accurate the result will be.

Using Frautest the day before the delay

You can use Frautest a day before the delay or even two, but guarantee receipt exact result it is forbidden. It all depends on the characteristics of the course of the menstrual cycle, the moment of ovulation, the speed of fertilization and the individuality of the growth of the pregnancy hormone. Of course, 2 identical lines may also appear, but with an insufficient level of chorionic gonadotropin, it is possible that the second strip will be lighter than the control one or will not appear at all.

Therefore, having made Frautest for pregnancy before the delay, and doubting the answer received after the first test, the second must be repeated after a few days.

Types and features of tests

Frautest offers 5 types of tests today:

Test - Frautest strips

The easiest and cheapest Frautest express. The package contains 1 strip, which during the procedure is lowered vertically into a container with urine to a certain mark for 10 seconds, then it is placed on a dry, flat surface and the result is evaluated after 3-5 minutes, but not more than 10.

Frautest double control in the package has two test strips. Used in the same way.

Cassette tests Frautest

Frautest expert is presented in the form of a cassette with two windows. It is more convenient than the first in that drops of urine are applied with a pipette to one window, and the answer is displayed on the second.

Inkjet tests Frautest

The comfort and ecsclusive inkjet tests are more expensive. They have an improved design, the cap is removed from the cassette, the strip is substituted under the stream of urine, the cap is closed and the same wait 3-5 minutes.

Rules for using Frautest before the delay

Before testing, you must study the instructions and follow all of its points in sequence:

For a more accurate result, it is advisable to collect urine in the morning, when it contains the most high level hCG;
The container must be clean;
Lower the test into it vertically and only to the designated border;
Read the answer after the allotted time, but not more than 10 minutes, the result up to 3 minutes and after 10 is considered invalid and a repetition of the procedure is required;
Do not use expired tests;
Do not reuse them;
All actions are carried out with room temperature.
In order not to spoil the test and get an up-to-date answer, it is important to follow the general rules described and follow the instructions carefully.

Read test result

Frautest pregnancy after a delay shows her a positive result in the form of two identical lines on a test strip of the same color: pink or red. If the answer is negative, only one control line will be clearly visible. If both lines are blurry or broken, then a mistake was made in the test. The absence of a control strip indicates a poor-quality test.

Frautest pregnancy after a delay shows 2 stripes of bright red on the text, and the second strip may be paler than the first in hue.

Sometimes a false positive or false negative result of the study is recorded, when, in the presence of other signs confirming conception, the answer is negative, and vice versa, fertilization did not occur, and the test is positive, in this case, to resolve doubts, it is necessary to repeat the procedure after 2 days.

A woman planning the birth of a child always refers to a delay in menstruation with bated breath. To determine if pregnancy has occurred, you can take a blood test for hCG. This specific hormone begins to form in the body from the moment of conception, so even before the delay in menstruation, you can find out the exact answer. However, there is a simpler method for determining - Frautest for pregnancy.

The Frautest pregnancy test is highly reliable - the test result is almost always 99%. Of course, in rare cases, there may be a false diagnosis in the form of a false positive or false negative response. Sometimes the strips may not appear at all, but here the reason lies in the incorrect application of the test. Most often, Frautest gives the correct answer, and this is evidenced by the great popularity of this tool.

According to the Hungarian manufacturer, due to its high sensitivity, Frautest can detect hCG hormone already at the level of 15 mIU / ml. The use of this test allows you to accurately determine the onset of pregnancy from the first day of delay.

In non-pregnant women, the hCG hormone is at a concentration below 5 mIU / ml. As soon as conception occurs, the level of the hormone gradually begins to rise.

A level in the range of 20 to 100 mIU / ml is 1 or 2 weeks of pregnancy. If the level of the hormone is below this mark, then, most likely, testing will not show anything. You can repeat the procedure after two days: during this time, the hormone level will increase significantly if conception has taken place.

Frautest types

Almost all tests of this brand are popular. The manufacturer releases different types, each of which has its own characteristics. Regardless of the series, they have an affordable cost for most women, so any woman will be able to choose a pregnancy test based on the listed advantages and price category.

You can test at any time of the day, and evaluate the result after 3-5 minutes. It is worth noting that the result after 10 minutes is already false. In order not to violate the methodology, it is recommended to follow the instructions.

There are 3 types of tests:

Strip test - Express, Double Control.
Cassette - Expert, Comfort.
Inkjet - Ecclusive.

Below we will analyze each test system in more detail.

Diagnostic methods

Frautest Express - is the most popular and simple test. The Frautest Express pregnancy test has the most affordable cost and allows you to determine pregnancy at home. You can use this test system two days before the expected menstruation. The package contains only one strip, which must be dipped into a container of urine.

Frautest Double Control - in the package two test strips, allowing for dual diagnostics. The method of application is identical to the express test. The test is quite popular among women, as it allows you to verify the answer, thereby removing doubts and worries. If you decide to use the Frautest Double Control pregnancy test, then you need to know that it is recommended to repeat the test no earlier than two days after the first test was applied. This is due to the fact that the level of hCG in the body of a pregnant woman doubles every 48 hours. After two days, you can already conduct a second test and get an accurate answer.

Frautest Comfort - a very convenient test system. Its main advantage is that there is no need to collect urine. Diagnostics can be carried out at any time, and a specially designed design does not allow disrupting the technology. You can take the Frautest Comfort Axiom pregnancy test two days before your expected period.

To do this, remove the protective cap, substitute the end of the tablet test under the stream of urine, then put on the cap and put the device on a horizontal surface. After about 5 minutes, you can evaluate the result . Frautest Comfort Axiom has an acceptable cost.

Frautest Expert belongs to the cassette type and is easy to use. There are two holes on the test cassette. Using the pipette that comes with the test, you need to collect a few drops of urine and apply to the appropriate area on the test plate. The result is reflected in a few minutes in a special window. The cost of this test system is somewhat higher than that of the previous options, but the reliability of the diagnosis is guaranteed.

Frautest Exclusive - a particularly sensitive inkjet test, belongs to the third generation and has guaranteed reliability. The test system is designed in such a way that it is almost impossible to violate the diagnostic methodology, it can be used from the first day of the delay. The test is carried out in the same way as the Frautest Comfort Axiom.

Instruction

How to use the Frautest pregnancy test is described in detail by the instructions in the package - each test system has its own characteristics and rules for use. If you have purchased a Frautest Express ultrasensitive or dual control pregnancy test, you must adhere to the following scheme:

Collect urine in a sterile container (about 20-30 ml is enough).
Open the package and remove the test strip by holding it by the colored end.
Dip the reagent strip into the urine to the indicated mark.
Hold for at least 10 seconds and remove the strip.
Place the test strip on a flat and dry surface.
After 5 minutes, you can evaluate the result.

If you prefer more advanced methods and have purchased a jet test, then all you have to do is wet the end of the test under a stream of urine. In this case, you can use this test at any time of the day.

The highest concentration of the hCG hormone is observed in the morning hours, so many gynecologists recommend conducting a pregnancy test in the morning. However, third-generation tests allow diagnostics at any time of the day and result in the most accurate answers.

According to the instructions for the Frautest pregnancy test, a result is considered positive when two strips appear, one of which is control and the other is diagnostic. Even quite faint streak in the diagnostic zone indicates a positive response. If, after the required time, only one strip appears, this indicates that the pregnancy has not occurred.

It happens that the control strip does not appear at all. This can happen if the test turns out to be defective (which is rare) or the technology has been broken. For example, an erroneous result may occur if an insufficient amount of urine was used or the test strip was held during the diagnosis not in a vertical, but in a horizontal position. Having studied the instructions and knowing such subtleties, you can not worry about how to use the Frautest pregnancy test correctly. It is advisable to refrain from taking liquids 1-2 hours before the test, so as not to "dilute" the urine.

Advantages and disadvantages

Frautest home tests have a number of advantages:

They help to determine pregnancy at the earliest possible time, the accuracy of determining pregnancy is almost 100%.
They are convenient and easy to use.
Guaranteed complete anonymity.

A big advantage is the cost of test systems. The price range allows every woman to take advantage of the tests of this brand. For many women, inkjet tests are especially relevant: there is no need to collect urine, you can test at any time, as well as in any convenient place, even if you are at work.

Tests also have some disadvantages:

Against all odds, there is a possibility of a false diagnosis. This can happen if, for example, the hCG hormone is produced in a woman not because of pregnancy, but as a result of disorders in the body. Various tumors, interruption, recent or miscarriage, the presence of a cyst - all of these conditions can cause a false positive response.
Likewise, do not consider 1 strip as the final verdict. False negatives are much more common than .

Wrong result may be the result of a defective test system or if the test has expired validity. When using a rapid test or a Frautest Double Control pregnancy test, the methods of conducting can be violated and then an incorrect answer is almost guaranteed.
