Product Description

Accurate digital results - 5 days sooner (First Response detects the pregnancy hormone 5 days sooner than the day of your missed period [4 days before the day expected period]). Enhanced technology! Easier to read. 100% larger Yes+/No- results (vs. prior First Response digital test). Over 99% accurate (99% accurate at detecting typical hormone levels. Note that hormone levels vary. See insert) from the day of your expected period. About Testing Early - First Response is 99% accurate at detecting the pregnancy hormone. However, 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 pregnancy progresses. In clinical testing, First Response detected the hormone levels in 58% of women 4 days before their expected period, in 80 % of women 3 days before their expected period, in 90% of women 2 days before their expected period, and in 94% of women 1 day before their expected period. This kit contains 2 First Response Gold Digital Pregnancy Test sticks and instructions (in English and Spanish). First Response Gold Digital Pregnancy Test has a proprietary gold technology that is so sensitive, it actually detects two different forms of the pregnancy hormone, including the variant that better predicts early pregnancy. Only test with light activation feature. Larger window.

I had nothing to go on but a gut feeling, simple math, and some slight symptoms that could've been early menstrual symptoms, but I went to the pharmacy and asked which test was most accurate for detecting pregnancy early. The female pharmacist was adamant about this one, and I liked the yes or no feature, so I bought it. Ten minutes later I got a positive, three days before my period was due. Nine months later my son was born. :-) The result remained displayed on the screen for a few days, btw, not just a couple of hours. I highly recommend! I do not recommend any early detection urine tet if you've recently had a miscarriage or given birth. These tests are designed to pick up on miniscule amounts of hcg running through your system that a doctor might read as a negative in a blood test. Always get a blood test.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very sensitive and accurate!, November 9, 2011

I chart my cycles (using a BBT), so I knew exactly when I had ovulated. Since my chart turned triphasic about 7 days after ovulation, I had an inkling I could be pregnant. I had a bunch of cheap internet HPTs that promised to detect down to 10 miu of hCG (that's extremely sensitive -- even the ones that tend to be considered very sensitive are usually around 20 miu or more). At 10 days past ovulation (5 days before my period was expected), I finally got an extremely faint line on a 10 miu test (so faint I wasn't even entirely certain I was seeing it).

I decided to pick up a digital to see if I could confirm. My research pointed me to the First Response Digital Gold as being the most sensitive digital test out there. Given my extremely faint line, I assumed the digital would be negative (since it appears to detect at 18 miu, which is less sensitive than the stick I used earlier). I held my urine for about 5 hours (after my original positive test in the morning), and did not eat or drink much during that time, so that my urine would be nice and concentrated for better results.

Testing with the First Response Digital Gold was easy. As soon as you remove it from the package, it activates (don't remove it until you're ready to test!) You can either aim it into your urine stream, or pee into a cup and dip the stick. I chose to pee in a cup and dip. The little icon on the screen began flashing a few seconds later to indicate that it was working. And within 3 minutes, I had an unquestionable "yes+"!

I loved that I was able to place the cap over the wick, so I could put the test in my purse without fear of getting urine all over. The package warns that the test will need to be thrown out after 30 minutes, and the digital display will stop working. However, the battery lasted about 5 days for me. It was exciting being able to show my husband the "yes+" later that evening.

5.0 out of 5 stars No confusion about the result., October 10, 2011

I was using cheap pee-stick pregnancy tests from here on Amazon, because I like to start testing really early, and that was ok.

By the time we got to the day before my period, those showed a very light line, which my husband agreed he could see, but he wasn't convinced that a very light positive result was really a positive result.

So, we bought a pack of these for about $15 at Walmart, because we wanted something digital. I was a little nervous about using it, because I didn't want to accidentally get the plastic part wet, so I used a dixie cup, and that worked fine.

The little clock thing started going, and my husband and I watched....YES+! It was nice to get a clear result that we could both agree on.

I kind of like how this test has a plastic cover for the end. We took our positive test to show his parents, and that would be awkward and gross without the plastic cover, but with the plastic cover it seemed totally fine. His mom understood right away what it was, and she was excited. His dad said, "Oh, what's that, a thermometer?" "No....well...kind of...but, no..." "Oh! It's a glucometer!" *we all grinned* "Nope!" "OH!! I know!! Congratulations!" So, that was pretty funny.)
