I am trying to find out what is the best early detection test on the market. I am looking for the one that detects the lowest hcg and detect it as early as possible. It's only been 10 days since I believe I conceived, but having very bad period like cramps and back pain. I did not get these on my first pregnancy so I didn't even know I was pregnant till I missed my period. I know I need to wait probably another 4-10 days, but if theres something out there that detects it early, please give me some suggestions. Thanks so much. I just love this site.

What can I do next?

the ones from Dollar Tree work great!

in February, I had a pregnancy that turned out to be ectopic. my HCG level never got above 400. they not only detected the pregnancy initially, but i tried a little science experiement of my own...i took a test right after i had my blood drawn to check my level. my level turned out to be 97. so, they can show up positive for levels under 100, and they are $1 a piece! don't waste money on expensive tests, especially if you're going to test so early.

i am 5 weeks today, and my dr. wouldn't do a blood test until today, even though i had a positive test one week ago, because if your level is really low, they don't know if it's because it's a bad pregnancy, or if it's too early, so it's really a waste. unfortunately, you really have to wait and see. i hope you get the result you're looking for!

The dollar tree pregnancy tests detect HCG at 25 ml. I was able to detect two of my pregnancies using dollar tree tests 5 days before my period was due.

I've used them all (except the dollar tree, that is good to know), and my favorite is clear blue easy digital. they are expensive, but the little computer inside makes the call instead of you trying to decide if the really faint pregnancy line is a real line or a figment of your imagination.

my insurance covered blood tests and urine tests at the doctor.
i would phone in and ask them to test you.
I used EPT and it was ALWAYS correct.
My cousin used the dollar store ones and got 12 for a dollar. They were right for her as well.
