When & How to Take a Pregnancy Test
Are you trying to conceive and have missed your period? Then the only thing lurking in your mind right now must be whether you are pregnant. This is the most nerve-wracking moment of any woman’s life. Now, all you would want to do is grab a pregnancy test kit and find out the truth! But pregnancy test kits are not always accurate. Some basic steps must be followed to get a reliable result. This article will guide you on how and when to take pregnancy tests at home and when to visit the doctor to get a confirmation about the arrival of the most awaited member of the family.
What is a Pregnancy Test?
A pregnancy test is designed to check the level of hCG (Human chorionic gonadotrophin) in the blood. hCG is a hormone which is secreted by the fertilized egg after it implants itself in the uterine lining. The test can be taken at home with the help of a pregnancy kit which is available in all drug stores. You can also visit an OB-GYN for the same. If you plan to take the test at home, then you must follow all the steps mentioned in the kit. If you prefer to see an OB-GYN, then he/she will test your blood sample. Please note that a blood test is more accurate than a urine test.
How Do Pregnancy Tests Work?
From the moment you conceive, your body starts changing drastically. Your body produces hCG which doubles every 36 to 48 hours as your pregnancy progresses. This hormone can be detected in your blood as well as urine. The pregnancy test done using a kit works by detecting the level of HCG in your urine. As soon as your urine meets the specially treated strip in the kit, within minutes it shows whether hCG is present in your urine or not. If 2 coloured vertical lines appear in the test area, it means that your test is positive, and if only a single line appears, it means that the test is negative. However, this may vary from kit to kit. Hence, it is always advisable to take a second opinion from your gynaecologist.
How Accurate are Pregnancy Tests?
The accuracy of the test depends upon following the exact directions as mentioned in the test kit. It also depends on testing on the right day and the right time. First, you must remember that if you follow the steps mentioned in the kit accurately, then the result is also 99% accurate. But once again, it is always advisable to double check the result with a blood test through your gynaecologist.
When is the Right Time to Take a Pregnancy Test?
Have you been planning to have a baby and indulging in sex with your partner sans any precautions? And have you missed your periods, since then? If yes, then you must go for a test to confirm if you are going to have a baby.
1. What is the Best Time of the Day to Take a Pregnancy Test?
The best time of the day to take pregnancy sample is the first urine in the morning. When you sleep throughout the night, your body holds the urine in the bladder for the whole night. This urine is highly concentrated and has high levels of everything, including hCG. Hence, if the urine test for pregnancy is done first thing in the morning, chances are that the result will be 99% accurate.
2. What is the Best Time to Take a Pregnancy Test After a Missed Period?
Taking a test too close to the date of the missed period may give you a false positive, so it is advisable to wait for a week before using your kit!
3. Early Signs That Indicate That You Should Perform a Test
Some early signs of pregnancy that can act as an indicator to take the test are as follows.
If you notice spotting or light bleeding, then you can consider taking a pregnancy test. This usually happens when the embryo implants itself in the uterus
If you feel cramping in the tummy
If your breasts feel tender and you get a feeling of discomfort in your breasts while wearing your bra
If you feel exhausted all the time
If the smell of food and other things around you makes you uncomfortable
If your taste buds start longing for food, you never liked before or if you feel aversion towards your favourite food items
If you notice excess vaginal discharge along with soreness
If you feel constipated most of the time
These signs show up in the first seven to ten days of ovulation. Take the test if you notice one or more of these symptoms.
What are the Different Pregnancy Tests Available?
Pregnancy tests are of two types, a urine test that you can do at home with the help of the pregnancy kit and the other is a blood test which is done in a medical centre. Both the tests scan the presence of hCG hormone in your body. hCG a pregnancy hormone that gets produced in the body only once the embryo is implanted in your uterus.
1. Blood Test
A blood test is the most accurate way of confirming a pregnancy. Here is a detailed analysis of blood tests done to confirm pregnancy.
2. Qualitative HCG Test
This test is done at the medical centre. This test is usually recommended 10 days after you miss your period. This test scans the traces of hCG in your blood sample and therefore the status of your pregnancy.
3. Quantitative HCG Test
This is a blood test conducted in a medical centre to scan the presence of hCG in your body. This test is more accurate and traces the exact amount of hCG in your blood. This can detect even the lowest level of hCG during the very early stage of pregnancy.
Urine Test to Confirm Pregnancy
A urine test can be done at home and is very convenient. All you have to do is buy yourself a pregnancy test kit from any medical store and you are good to do the test all by yourself. These kits come with instructions. Just follow the instructions on the kit and you will most likely get an accurate result. You can do the urine test one week after you have missed your periods.
1. What’s the Best Time to do This Test?
While you can do the urine test any time during the day, yet the morning time as soon as you get up is the best time to perform the test. This is because the first urine of the morning is highly concentrated and the chances of getting an accurate result are higher.
2. How Long Does the Test Take to Work?
It takes about 5 to 10 minutes for the urine test to work. Any result that you read after 10 minutes can be misleading. Also, don’t look for a result before 5 minutes have passed. That will be inaccurate too.
3. What Does a Positive Pregnancy Test Look Like?
When a second line appears along with the control in the pregnancy test stick, it means that you are pregnant. In some test kits there will be 2 separate windows and in case of positive result, lines will appear in both the windows. Please note that the same result must be confirmed with a blood test at a medical centre.
4. What Does a Negative Test Look Like?
In case of a negative result, only the control line appears and nothing else. You can repeat the test one week later again to confirm this result or visit your doctor and get a blood test done.
5. What About a Faint Line?
A faint line means that the amount of hCG hormone in the blood is very less. This is quite acceptable during early pregnancy. The concentration of hCG increases in the body as the pregnancy gets older.
Pros and Cons of Taking a Test to Confirm Pregnancy
While pregnancy test kits are quite popular and easily available these days, it helps to weigh the pros and cons of using one.
Pros:
A pregnancy test is the fastest way to confirm if you are pregnant or not after you miss your menstrual cycle.
Even in scenarios where you were not ready to conceive but had a birth-control failure, you can confirm your pregnancy status through a pregnancy test.
Sometimes in case of early pregnancy symptoms, you may get close to accurate result 4 to 5 days prior to missing your cycle, through the pregnancy test.
Cons:
Sometimes the result of the pregnancy test done using a kit can be misleading.
In many cases, even chemical pregnancies appear positive on the kit but later lead to a miscarriage, while in some cases, the results appearing as negative in the pregnancy kit have turned out to be positive later.
Hence, it is advisable to get a blood test done after the pregnancy test at home for the confirmed result.
FAQs
Here are a few frequently asked questions about pregnancy test kits:
1. What if no lines appear on the test?
If no lines appear on the pregnancy test stick, then the test will stand invalid. In most of these cases, the problem is with the kit itself. To be on the safer side, repeat the test after 2 to 3 days.
2. When does the test need to be repeated?
In cases where a faint second line appears on pregnancy test kit or no lines appear at all, then a repeat test may be required just to be sure.
3. What does 99 percent accuracy mean?
When a second line appears distinctly on the kit, then it is 99 percent confirmed that you are pregnant. 99 percent accuracy means, if the test were repeated 100 times (with a kit from the same brand/company), it will give correct result 99 times. so there is a 1 in 100 chance that the test give an incorrect result.
4. Does taking medication affect the result of a pregnancy confirmation test?
Yes, taking medication does affect the result of the pregnancy confirmation test. As discussed before, in order to be absolutely sure, a home pregnancy test or a urine test must be followed by a blood test at a medical centre.
All pregnancies are different and so are the circumstances. This article will help you to determine the status and circumstance of your pregnancy. Here’s wishing you a happy pregnancy.

Home Remedies to Remove White Patches on The Face of Babies and Kids
White patches on the skin are a common problem among children. However, there is no reason to be alarmed about this, as many of the issues that cause the patches can be fixed easily. There are many misconceptions about the white patches that appear on a child’s face. Here is all you need to know about them.
What are The Common Causes of White Patches on a Child’s Face?
1. Vitamin Deficiency
This is a very common reason for the appearance of the white patches on the face of many children. We all know that a balanced and healthy diet is essential and that many kids refuse to eat properly. This will result in many deficiencies, and vitamin deficiency is one of them.
The vitamin that is responsible for the production of melanin is vitamin B12. Deficiency in this vitamin can lead to white spots. They might appear not only on the face but anywhere on the body especially the forearms. A very high deficiency might lead to itching and further lightening. The skin might also turn red or pink in some cases.
Providing the child with a healthy and a balanced diet is the best way to treat these spots after you consult a doctor.
Zinc and calcium deficiency could also lead to this problem.
2. Birthmarks
There are many cases where these spots on the child’s face turned out to be birthmarks. If such is the case, then there is no need to worry.
3. Tinea Versicolour
Tinea versicolour/ Pityriasis versicolour is a fungal infection caused by Malassezia. The way this fungus affects the children is by producing an acid that will interfere with the melanin production inside the body.
When this happens, the patches could either be lighter/ darker than the usual skin colour of the kid. At times, they are itchy and scaly too. They appear mostly on the torso and shoulders but might also be seen on the neck, face, and the stomach.
People who live in a humid or hot climate are affected more. Exposure to the sun can make the patches more pronounced since they are not prone to tanning. All you need to improve this condition is to make sure the kid does not have any immunity problems and consume a well-balanced diet.
The lack of hygiene is also known to cause this problem.
4. Vitiligo
Vitiligo is a skin condition that scares many parents though they are harmless. The white patches on the skin are caused due to the loss of pigmentation. Vitiligo is an autoimmune disorder. This means that your body attacks its melanocytes. The cells that produce melanin are called melanocytes.
These spots are usually seen on the parts of the body that are exposed to sunlight but may also affect any other part of the body. The condition is more noticeable in children with a darker complexion though it can affect kids of various skin types. Vitiligo is not contagious, so there is no need to worry. Why this condition scares people is due to the way the patches look. The appearance, along with the lack of knowledge about the disease causes a stigma.
5. Spots Caused to Injury/Burns
Many times, trauma to a particular part of the skin can cause a lack of pigmentation or a delayed pigmentation at the site of the injury.
6. Worm Infection
This reason is a bit questionable. Some people claim the white patches are due to worms in the stomach. Though this reason is not sure, you can still deworm your kids once in a while.
How to Get Rid of White Spots on Your Child’s Face at Home?
Here are some home remedies for white patches on face of a child.
A broad spectrum sunscreen can be applied on the face before the child goes outside
Ensure that your kid eats a lot of vegetables and fruits
Although it is not sure that worms cause patches, there is no harm in deworming the child. You can do this every six months
Many paediatricians advise using non-perfume and non-dye emollients. This will prevent dry skin which might sometimes lead to Pityriasis Alba
In case the white patches are due to a fungal infection, then you can use antifungal creams which will work against the infection
How to Treat White Spots That are Caused due to Pityriasis Alba?
When the causes are not known it is hard to prevent them. You can make sure your kid eats healthy fruits and vegetables. You could also do this
1. Use Sunscreen
Make sure that your child goes out having applied a broad spectrum of sunscreen. This will help to prevent any sun damage and will protect your child.
2. Use Non-scented Emollients or Moisturisers
The patches that appear are sensitive when compared to the skin around it. This is why it is better to use moisturisers that are not filled with artificial fragrance or chemicals. Your paediatrician will know the best moisturiser you could use on your child.
When to Consult a doctor?
Any of the reasons mentioned above could be a reason for the appearance of white patches. Though most of them are harmless, at times, they could also be dangerous. So the best thing to do is check with a doctor for a proper conclusion.
Apart from that, do consult a doctor if you see any of these symptoms accompanied by the patches.
Severe itching
An alteration in the colour of the spots (usually to red)
Loss of sensitivity on that area of skin
How to Help A Child with White Patches so That It Doesn’t Affect His Self Confidence?
Little children do not care about the way they look. But when they grow older, their self-awareness increases. This condition might hit their self-confidence.
If your kid has been affected by this condition and if they cannot be treated, the parents will have to help the child cope.
Here are some points you should keep in mind
Start by talking to them and make sure that they are comfortable about the way they look
If you feel like you cannot help them, then you can think about counselling
Ensure that they are comfortable enough to talk about stuff to you. This way, you can find out if somebody is bullying your child due to his/her appearance
If required, you can inform your kid’s teachers
To get rid of any misconceptions, educate their friends
If none of these points seems to work, you can always try using cosmetics to hide the spots on the face
White spots on a child’s face are more common than people think. Various reasons cause this, and most of them can be cured.

Exercises to Reduce Cholesterol in Your Body
If you are dealing with cholesterol issues, exercising is one thing that can help you bring down your cholesterol levels to a healthy range. Regular workouts such as cycling, walking, swimming etc. can only not help in bringing down the LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels, but it can also help in increasing the HDL cholesterol levels in the body. Learn why and how exercising is good for lowering the cholesterol levels and also know about some of the best exercises that may help you in achieving the same, in this write-up.
Why Exercise Works Best at Lowering Cholesterol?
Wondering whether exercise can reduce cholesterol levels? Well, yes it can work wonders! The waxy lipid fat, which is produced by the liver, is naturally present in our body. However, some people may have this fatty substance in more than required amounts in their body, which then sticks into the arteries. After attaching to the arteries, it narrows them, thereby increases the chances of cardiovascular diseases. However, regular exercising helps in changing the nature of cholesterol. In a study, it was proven that exercising not only improves the size and number of cholesterol-carrying particles but it also helps in making them larger or fluffier and thus lesser prone to causing any blockage in the arteries.
How Much Exercise Do You Need?
According to recent research, it is important to exercise for 30 minutes a day, at least 4 to 5 days a week. However, even if you can spare 60 to 90 minutes a week for exercise, it may prove to be beneficial for your health. If you have a hectic schedule, you could break up your exercising schedule into two 15-minute workouts per day.
Best Types of Exercises to Cut Down Cholesterol Levels
Here are some exercises that may help you in cutting down your cholesterol levels:
1. Brisk Walk
Walking is undoubtedly one of the best exercises to lower cholesterol naturally. Walking is a safer option for people who cannot run, either because of extra weight or because of old age. However, make sure you walk briskly or at a faster pace to achieve the cardio effects. Recent research has proven that walking has benefits similar to running when it comes to lowering the cholesterol levels.
2. Running or Jogging
If you are not hefty, your age is not a problem and your joints are healthy, then you should opt for jogging or running as a daily form of exercise to reduce cholesterol fast. As per one of the studies, it has been observed that long-distance runners or joggers have healthier cholesterol levels than short-distance runners.
3. Go for a Swim
Swimming is a great way of keeping the extra weight under check and it also helps in maintaining a better level of cholesterol in the body. This form of aerobic exercise is also easy on the joints.
4. Lift Some Weights
Weight training is a great way of getting your cholesterol levels within the normal range. According to a study, it has been proved that people who followed resistance training got rid of LDL from their blood faster than those who did not follow any resistance training regime.
5. Cycling
Cycling is an excellent way of doing some aerobic workout. If you experience pain or soreness in your joints, you can do cycling for keeping your cholesterol under check. Cycling is a fantastic way of reducing the risk of heart ailments too.
6. Yoga
As odd as it may seem, but yoga may help you in lowering cholesterol levels. Some studies support that yoga is not only beneficial for better heart health but also helps in improving the cholesterol levels of the body. According to one of the published studies, people who practised yoga on a regular basis had better cholesterol levels than those who did not practice yoga.
7. Aerobics, Zumba or Dance
Any high-intensity workout such as Zumba, dancing or aerobics, not only help you remain in good shape, but it is a great form of exercise for lowering bad cholesterol or keeping your cholesterol levels under check.
You may opt for any form of exercising that you can easily do. If you have a sedentary lifestyle, take it slow and build up your stamina before you take up strenuous workouts. However, if you are over 60 years of age, you are obese, or you have a sedentary lifestyle, you must consult your doctor before you start doing any kind of strenuous or high-intensity workouts.
How to Keep Up Exercise to Get Your Cholesterol Levels Down?
Exercising can get monotonous and boring. However, the mantra is to keep yourself pepped-up and motivated. Here are some ways of staying motivated:
1. Get a Partner
You may enjoy going for a run or jog all by yourself for some time, but after a while, it may seem so boring, and you may even want to bunk your exercising sessions. You must ask a friend or a family member to join you to keep it more fun and for staying more driven.
2. Keep It Real
Unrealistic goals are not only hard to achieve, but they may also take a toll on your health. Keep it simple and keep it real, nothing in life comes easy, and health is no exception either. Small achievable goals will keep you happy and focused.
3. Stay Flexible
Do not be rigid with your exercising schedule. This means if you are unable to go for a run, you should plan to do some yoga at home. The aim is to exercise and if, on some days, one form of exercising may not be feasible, opt for the other one.
There should be no compromises, as far as health is concerned. Therefore, if you have been detected with higher levels of cholesterol, it is an indication that you need to pull your socks up and take charge of your health. We hope this article helps you in getting some perspective on staying healthy and motivated. Stay healthy and happy!

What Should Not Be Heard By Little Ears Should Not Be Spoken By Big Mouths
"Ding dong, bell pussy's in the well. Who put her in? My little papa thin. Who pulled her out? My little Mama stout."
This was the first nursery rhyme that my father had recited to me. My teacher had continuously asked me to say the correct one, but I was reluctant to say the correct words as I had learned this at home. I got the first prize for reciting this rhyme. Probably the judge liked my confidence and creativity.
Although I got the first prize, my father realised that children speak what they are taught, not intentionally though, but they learn the easiest way around.Time flew in a jiffy, and I became a Mommy to three musketeers and my dad became a grandad.
Now being in the senior-most position, he was guiding me to be careful in front of kids as what to say and how to say. That's what all grandparents do.
18 months later I started panicking when will they say the magical word "Mama".Every day, every second I was repeating in front of them "MAMA" and pat came the word one-day, and I was elated. So was my husband, when he got to hear the word "Papa".
One day, my hubby and I were sitting and eating lunch. My son, Mitaksh came running towards me, and my bowl of cereal spilled on the floor, and here I said the four-lettered word "SHIT".
Guess what?
He repeated in a childish gibberish tone, "Oh Mamaaa shhhit".
Rahul and I looked at each other, embarrassed, and thought we need to be careful next time.
As parents, everyone commits a mistake someday or the other. You have done too.
As I am blessed with three kids, my story is a little longer.
A few days back I was lighting the Diya in the mandir and I was chanting 'Om Namah Shivaya'. Not knowing my younger son, Maullik was watching my actions.
Maullik, very clearly, with folded hands repeated the beautiful soulful words and I felt proud that am teaching spirituality to my kids, unconsciously.
And the story continues with the third one.
Yesterday my daughter, Mehar was sitting in my lap, I was humming the new song from the movie Gully Boy, "Apna Time Aayega".
"Apna time aaega....." before I could sing further, my daughter uttered, "Mama aayyyega aaayegaaa".
Thankfully I did not sing the whole song, otherwise I would have been red-faced again and would have added a new word in my child's dictionary which is not very appropriate.
I then checked on the internet about this and Google Baba gave me this knowledge, "Kids have echolalia, they repeat what you say. Its a part of their language development".
Echolalia is very normal until 30 months of their developmental stage. Beyond that its a sign to worry.
So we should be careful what we say in front of our little generation, which is getting sharper as technology is advancing.
My mother also shared with me that I should never speak to my kids in a Lisp language, the children start speaking like that and take time to speak the words correctly.
So Mommies and Mommies-to-be let's set the stage for our kids, after all, they will be the youth to lead us tomorrow. Let's set their stage to be good speakers and great human beings.
