Why is it better to take a pregnancy test with the first pee of the morning ?

Question

i already took mine but im just wondering ?

Answer 1

your pregnancy hormones show up better as it hasn't been watered down by juices and water .

Answer 2

Because for some reason I couldnt tell ya why it has higher levels of hormones first thing in the morning.

Answer 3

Because you have not urinated for a while and your urine is 'full' with hormones.

Answer 4

You have been sleeping all night, haven't had anything to drink, so the concentrations of HCG is highest then.

Answer 5

Hormones have had a chance to build up overnight and thus are more easily detectible by the tests.

Answer 6

Higher levels of the pregnancy hormone.

Answer 7

Because your urine has been collecting over 8 hours (theoretically).  But you can also test if you haven't urinated in 4-6 hours and it'll be the same.  So if you can hold it really well you can take a pregnancy test any time of day as long as you haven't urinated in the past 4 hours.

Answer 8

Your urine is more concentrated in the morning as you have not usually replenished your stock of water for around 8 hours or so..

Usually your urine in the morning will be a lot darker than during the day as well while you are taking on fluids.

This more concentrate urine obviously then has more HCG per ml than a less concetrated sample.

Answer 9

I think its because your urine has been building up through the night, so your hormones havent had chance to be diluted? I took my test first thing and it was practically 'you're pregnant' in flashing lights!

Answer 10

it is a better supply of the pregnancy hormone than a late afternoon one. It is caused from not urinating in the night. Not sure but if you go to webmd and type this question in you can get a better answer

Answer 11

The morning pee has more of the hormone in it. It's more concentrated in the morning.
