Did you know that you can check to see if you are pregnant using salt?
To get accurate results, you have to wait until your body starts producing sufficient amounts of the hCG hormone. This will happen around one week after you miss your period. Anything earlier than one week and you could get inaccurate results.
Procedure
- Urinate into the clear container (remember that fresh, early morning urine works best)
- Add two pinches of salt to the urine sample
- Stir the salt-urine combo to mix it well
- Set the timer to 5 minutes and wait till time elapses
- Watch for changes
Results
If you notice a milky foam in the mixture, this is a sign that you are pregnant. But if the urine stays flat and foamless, then you are not pregnant.
Disclaimer
Knowing how to test pregnancy with salt is a quick and way to know if you are pregnant. However, you may still need to get some blood tests in the hospital to know for sure. Home tests might be convenient, but not fool-proof and scientifically proven. It is always better to get a proper pregnancy kit to test or visit a doctor to confirm further.
