In collaboration with Abingdon Health, Salignostics, and Crest Medical, prominent UK-based health and beauty retailer Boots has recently announced the launch of the world’s first saliva pregnancy self-test under its own brand label.
The new test will be available both in Boots stores and online across the UK, offering a significant advancement in accessible and convenient pregnancy testing options. By utilizing saliva samples, this innovative test offers a non-invasive and convenient alternative to traditional urine-based pregnancy tests, enhancing the overall testing experience for users. The introduction of the new test builds on the success of Boots-branded self-tests for Iron and Vitamin D deficiency earlier this year.
Boots Saliva Pregnancy Tests offer a convenient and user-friendly solution for detecting pregnancy with high accuracy just one day after a missed period. Designed for simplicity and ease of use, these tests utilize saliva to detect the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), the hormone indicative of pregnancy. Users can perform the test at any time of the day, collecting saliva with the provided collection handle and observing the indicator color change to blue, signaling a valid test. Results are available within 5 to 15 minutes, providing quick and reliable feedback.
