Pregnancy Test Made easy by USB Digital Pregnancy Test

When you heard the word “pregnancy test kit”, it is simple strips that can be bought in drugstores and let you know your pregnancy status by testing your urine. Yet technology helps us to live life simple and convenient, and proved that anything can be turned into circuits, chips, and other computer related items. And now you can easily find out, if you are pregnant without even need to visit a doctor. You can use the Pteq, the USB Digital Pregnancy Test which was commercialized by ThinkGeek.com.

This USB Digital Pregnancy Test is like a typical test pact. The process starts off like regular pregnancy test. Below are the following steps using the USB Digital Pregnancy Test:

1. Pee on the stick, specifically the absorbent test strip at one end.
2. Remove the cap from the other stick end, to reveal the USB connector.
3. Pop the device in your computer.
4. When you’re done with the test result, pop it out to your computer and change the strip. You will be able to review the results for more 5 minutes and then automatically off.

When you stick the device on the USB port, the power from your USB port will trigger a process called the electrospray ionization on the device, which creates a spectrograph of the various masses for your analysis. You don't need to see the actual spectrograph yourself because mass analysis happens inside the device. This USB Digital Pregnancy Test only analyzes for specific chemical makeups. The mass spectrometry software on the device comes with several sequenced hormones, including hCG (human Chorionic Gonadotropin), hCG-H (hyperglycosylated hCG - for detection before your first missed period), and LH (luteinizing hormone - for detection of your most fertile days).

The difference between this gadget and a usual test pack was it gives you a detailed spectrograph and analysis of your hormone levels. Another was if you are pregnant, it will display a cute baby face in digital format. In addition, using it as a tester for pregnancy you can also make use of the plotted data to predict your cycle, which can be used to tell the best time to get baby. This gadget is reusable which has 20 test strips and cost no more than $18. It is 99% accurate in detecting hCG, hCG-H and LH. However, these hormones do not necessarily indicate pregnancy or ovulation, respectively.
