First Response ER

[Siarie]

Hey everyone,

So I was wondering about HCG test sensitivity, I know you can get IC that say that pickup at 10mIU (One Step etc). But what I'm finding it hard to discover is what sensitivity FRER tests are?

Some people are saying 25mIU some are saying 6mIU? Because surely for them to be the best test they need to be either as good as the IC or better? Thus a lower level of detection?

I think I read somewhere recently that it was 8.5? Have you googled?

Dr Google says:

RESULTS: First Response Early Result had an analytical sensitivity of 6.3 mIU/mL, which was estimated to detect greater than 95% of pregnancies on the day of missed period. The sensitivity of Clearblue Easy Earliest Results was 25 mIU/mL, which indicated detection of 80% of pregnancies.

So I was wrong! Oopsie.. :)

I did google but I didn't find that? So they are more sensitive then?! Gosh why do people think they are 25 :/

I dunno, it was the first thing that came up so just copied and pasted over here - I didn't even read it until of posted lol :)
