How to prepare for your video visit on the day of your appointment:
We recommend logging into your Patient Portal at least 10 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment time.

Kindly take the pregnancy test which was provided to you upon discharge after your procedure. Please be sure to follow the instructions below on how to properly take the at home pregnancy test. We recommend you perform this test on the morning of your virtual visit.
Allow the test strip, urine specimen and/or controls to equilibrate to room temperature (15-30°C/59-86°F) before testing.
Note: A low hCG concentration might result in a weak line appearing in the test region (T) after an extended period of time; therefore, do not interpret the result after 10 minutes.
INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS:
(Please refer to the illustration above)
POSITIVE*: Two distinct red lines appear. One line should be in the control region (C) and another line should be in the test region (T).
NEGATIVE: One red line appears in the control region (C). No apparent red or pink line appears in the test region (T).
INVALID: Control line fails to appear. Insufficient specimen volume or incorrect procedural techniques are the most likely reasons for control line failure. Review the procedure and repeat the test with a new test strip. If the problem persists, discontinue using the test kit immediately and contact your local distributor.
*NOTE: The intensity of the red color in the test line region (T) will vary depending on the concentration of hCG present in the specimen. However, neither the quantitative value nor the rate of increase in hCG can be determined by this qualitative test.
