The saliva test is 95% accurate, slightly less than pee-on-stick ones.
Human chorionic gonadotropin is a hormone that is found in aperson’s urine, blood, and saliva. The hormone goes on to form the placenta and is produced by the cells surrounding the growing embryo. The increase in levels of hCG, especially in the first eight to 10 weeks of pregnancy, is usually a good sign, as it determines how the pregnancy and the fetus are developing.
Most home pregnancy tests are usually wand-shaped and require one to pee on a stick. The results appear on the stick after a few minutes. It’s positive if the test detects hCG levels in one’s urine, and negative if there are no pregnancy hormones present. Peeing on a stick, apart from a blood test, is a conventional method of determining if one is pregnant. However, it can’t be performed, say in a subway or a restaurant.: “This exciting innovation offers women the opportunity to test for pregnancy in a cleaner, more straightforward, and easier way, and is a long overdue development in the pregnancy testing market.
SaliStick also has an app that will let the pregnant person share their results digitally with loved ones. Safe to say the app will not be used by people who don’t wish to be pregnant in the first place.
