PRIVATE DISCREET PREGNANCY TESTING
We provide a fast and discreet pregnancy testing service within all our branches.
A qualified member of our team will guide you through the process and provide you with the results in a private consultation room. They will then be able to discuss with you your options and next steps. This service usually takes 5 to 10 minutes.
​
A positive test result is almost certainly correct; however, a negative result is less reliable. If you get a negative result and still think you're pregnant, wait a few days and try again. If you get a negative result after a second test but your period hasn't arrived then speak to your GP.
HOW DOES A PREGNANCY TEST WORK ?
All pregnancy tests detect the hormone human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG), which starts to be produced around six days after fertilisation.
​
Most pregnancy tests come in a box that contains one or two long sticks. You pee on the stick and the result appears on the stick after a few minutes. All tests are slightly different, so always check the instructions.
