How accurate are OVRY™ Pregnancy Test Strips? Are they the same quality as the tests available for sale at the pharmacy?
When used correctly, OVRY™ Pregnancy Test Strips are over 99.7% accurate if used from the first day of your expected period. OVRY™ products offer the same accuracy and quality as the tests available from pharmacies - OVRY™ Pregnancy Test Strips are able to detect pregnancy just as soon (up to five days before the date of your expected period). Like all pregnancy tests, however, the accuracy of the results increase the longer you wait to take the test. In other words, you are more likely to get the most accurate result if you wait until the date of your expected period before testing. This is also why we recommend that if you are testing before the date of your expected period and you get a “negative” result, you take another test two days later to confirm the results.
