Due to popular demand this list has been put together to show the average sensitivity of HPT's. If there are other tests you have tried and know please let me know and I will add it to the list. This will come together to form a basic guide for those wishing to choose a test brand.

Fortel Ultra ? 10mlU
Pregnow - 10ml
Fortel extra - 25mlU
Pregnosis - 25mlU
Answer Early Result Pregnancy Test - 25mlU
Assurance Plus - 25mIU
Crystal Clear - 25mIU
Discover One Step - 25 mlU
Confirm ? 25mIU
Assurance ? 25mIU
Clear blue +/- - 25 - 50 mlU
Clear blue digital ? 50mIU
First response - 25 - 100mlU

Now for the ratings side...

4 questions for each test you are rating (please keep answers short, yes or no and DPO):

1. Have you experienced evaporation lines?
2. Have you experienced false positives?
3. If applicable, how early did you get a legitimate + result?
4. Rate the test out of 10.

1 = very bad
5 = O.K
10 = Highly recommended

You can also refer to THIS site though it is American I believe and some of the test values are not necessarily the same as ours.
