Early Pregnancy Detection Matters3

The first few weeks of pregnancy are critical to fetal development, so early prenatal care is important for a healthy birth weight and the baby’s survival. The sooner you know you’re pregnant, the sooner you can begin making healthy pregnancy choices for yourself and your baby that include: diet, nutrition and limiting your exposure to hazards.

Things to Know About Testing Early...Some pregnant women may not have detectable amounts of the pregnancy hormone in their urine on the day they use the test. The amount of pregnancy hormone increases as the pregnancy progresses. In laboratory testing, FIRST RESPONSE™ detected the pregnancy hormone levels in 60% of pregnant women, 5 days before their expected period; in 86% of pregnant women, 4 days before their expected period; in 96% of pregnant women, 3 days before their expected period; in >99% of pregnant women, 2 days before their expected period; in >99% of pregnant women, 1 day before their expected period; and in >99% of pregnant women, on the day of their expected period.

How to Read Result

  • While holding stick with Absorbent Tip pointed down, put Overcap back on. Place stick on a flat, dry surface, Result Window facing up.
  • The clock symbol will begin to blink about 30 seconds after urine is applied. This means the test is working.
  • After about 3 minutes, an unmistakable “YES+” or “NO-” appears on the Display Screen.

NOT PREGNANT: “NO-” shows on the Display Screen. This means no pregnancy hormone (hCG) was detected at this time.

PREGNANT: “YES+” shows on the Display Screen. This means that the pregnancy hormone (hCG) was detected.

Please see your healthcare professional to confirm this result.

CAUTION: Although you may not be pregnant, it could also be too early to tell. For instance, your urine may not have enough of the pregnancy hormone to be detected, yet. If you do not get your period within 7 days, retest with another FIRST RESPONSE™ Gold Digital Pregnancy Test. If you receive another Not Pregnant result and your period still hasn’t started, call your healthcare professional.

Frequent Questions

How does the FIRST RESPONSE Gold™ Digital Pregnancy Test work?

The test detects human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine. hCG is the hormone your body produces during pregnancy.

When can I test?

The FIRST RESPONSE Gold™ Digital Pregnancy Test is designed to detect hCG as early as 6 days before your missed period (5 days before the day of the expected period). The amount of pregnancy hormone increases as pregnancy progresses. In laboratory testing with early pregnancy urine samples, FIRST RESPONSE™ gave the following results:

What do I do if the result on the Display Screen is "YES+" (pregnant)?

A "YES+" test result shows that the pregnancy hormone (hCG) was detected, which normally indicates pregnancy. You must see your doctor to confirm that you are pregnant. If you test positive, but think you may not be pregnant, you should check with your doctor.

What do I do if the result on the Display Screen is "NO-" (not pregnant)?

You may not be pregnant, or it may be too early to tell. If you do not get your period within 7 days, you should retest with another FIRST RESPONSE Gold™ Digital Pregnancy Test. It is possible that you miscalculated the length of your cycle, or your urine may not have had enough pregnancy hormone for the test to register a "YES+" result. If upon retesting, you get another "NO-" result and your period has still not started, you should call your doctor.

The blinking clock has disappeared followed by a "?" on the Display Screen. What does this mean?

A "?" symbol indicates an error has occurred during testing. You should retest with another FIRST RESPONSE Gold™ Digital Pregnancy Test, carefully following all directions.

The Display Screen is blank. What is wrong?

If the display screen goes blank at any time before yielding a result, an error has occurred. You should retest with another FIRST RESPONSE Gold™ Digital Pregnancy Test, carefully following all directions.

How long will my result show on the Display Screen?

Your result will be displayed for at least 30 minutes. Read your results within this timeframe. Once you have read your result, discard the stick.

Note: This device contains a battery with a removal feature on the reverse side of the Thumb Grip. Be sure to dispose of the battery according to local regulations.

What will happen if the plastic holder gets wet?

Some splashing while using the test will not damage the test, but if it becomes very wet it can become damaged. If the test becomes damaged, the Display Screen will either go blank or an error "?" message will appear.

Do any drugs or medications affect the test?

Only medications containing the pregnancy hormone (hCG) can affect the result (for example, A.P.L.4, Pregnyl5, Profasi6 and Pergonal6). The test should not be affected by hormone therapies containing: Clomiphene citrate (for example Clomid7 and Serophene6); alcohol; antibiotics; or the contraceptive pill.

I removed the device from the wrapper and the clock symbol appeared on the Display Screen, but I'm not ready to use the test. What should I do?

Once removed from the wrapper, the device must be used within 12 hours. Keep the device dry before use.
