Pregnancy Testing

At EveryMed General Practice in East London, we offer reliable and confidential pregnancy testing services. 

Whether you’re hoping for a positive test, concerned about a possible pregnancy, or simply want clarity and reassurance, our GPs are here to support you with compassionate and professional care.

What Is Pregnancy Testing?

Pregnancy testing helps determine whether you are pregnant by checking for the hormone hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) in:

  • Urine
  • Blood

At EveryMed, we provide quick urine tests and can arrange blood tests when needed for more accurate or early detection.

Who Should Have a Pregnancy Test?

You may need a pregnancy test if you:

  • Missed a period
  • Had unprotected sex
  • Are experiencing pregnancy symptoms such as nausea, breast tenderness, or fatigue
  • Are unsure if your current contraception worked
  • Want to confirm pregnancy before starting a new medication or treatment

Our GP provides discreet, judgement-free support.

Types of Pregnancy Tests Available at EveryMed

1. Urine Pregnancy Test (Quick)

  • Provides fast results
  • Accurate from the first day of your missed period
  • Done in-clinic during your appointment

2. Blood Pregnancy Test

  • Detects pregnancy earlier than urine tests
  • Measures exact hormone levels
  • Useful if you need precise confirmation
  • Sample sent to our partner laboratory

Your GP will advise which option is best for your situation.

If your test is positive, we can help you with:

  • Understanding your result
  • Calculating gestational age
  • Discussing next steps
  • Pregnancy health advice
  • Referrals to midwifery care
  • Guidance on supplements, lifestyle, and medications

Common Symptoms That May Indicate Pregnancy

You may consider testing if you experience:

  • Missed or late period
  • Nausea or morning sickness
  • Breast soreness
  • Fatigue
  • Frequent urination
  • Food cravings or aversions
  • Mood changes

However, symptoms alone cannot confirm pregnancy testing is the only way to know for sure.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How early can a pregnancy test detect pregnancy?

Most tests detect pregnancy from the first day of your missed period. Some may detect earlier, but accuracy increases the longer you wait.

2. Do I need to prepare for the test?

No special preparation is needed. A urine sample is usually all that’s required.

3. Can a pregnancy test be wrong?

False negatives can occur if you test too early or your urine is diluted. False positives are rare. If unsure, your GP can repeat or confirm the test.

4. How accurate are urine pregnancy tests?

When done correctly, they are over 99% accurate when taken after a missed period.

5. Will my results be kept confidential?

Yes. All pregnancy tests and consultations at EveryMed are strictly confidential.

6. What happens if the test is positive?

Your GP will provide next-step medical guidance, referral for antenatal care if desired, and support tailored to your situation.

7. What if the test is negative but I still feel pregnant?

You may have tested too early. We can repeat the test or perform additional checks to determine the cause of your symptoms.

8. Can I get a pregnancy test if I’m on contraception?

Yes. No contraceptive is 100% effective. If you have symptoms or concerns, you can still book a test.
