Boots Strip Tests and Early Miscarriage

[DHB]

Hi ladies,

Can anyone confirm the sensitivity of Boots strip tests (I’ve thrown the packaging away by mistake).

In short, I had an early miscarriage with the bleeding starting on 19th June for 4 days and had bloods done for HCG on 27th June which confirmed my HCG was at 20.

I’ve just done another test (PM urine so after lots of drinks) and it’s still positive, albeit lighter but I would have expected it to not pick this up by now if my levels were 20 five days ago!

I’ve just looked at the leaflet and they are sensitive to 25mIU/ml. HCG levels in blood and urine will be different though OP.

@Oxalis00 Ah ok that makes sense then, thank you :) x
