Pregnancy Testing Devices Market - Trends,
Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2019 – 2026
Pregnancy testing devices are medical devices that help in identifying the possibility of
pregnancy. Pregnancy testing devices analyze the samples of women’s blood or urine for the
presence of human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG). The device detects tiny amount of HCG, a
female pregnancy hormone that increases during early stages of pregnancy in female body. The
urine pregnancy test kit provides qualitative results i.e. positive or negative. It contains the test
strip, which is directly exposed to the potential women’s urine. The blood test kit is the most
sensitive pregnancy test. The test allows the clinician to detect exact levels of HCG in women’s
blood, which is based on HCG molecules bound on the test strip.

Global Pregnancy Testing Device Market Drivers
Rise in demand for the fast, self-contained tests results, growing age of first pregnancy,
continuous technological advancement, and attractive product features such as smartphone app
connectivity in pregnancy test device are likely to drive growth of global pregnancy test device
market over the forecast period. Moreover, growing awareness regarding the availability of
pregnancy testing devices and utilization of self-detection pregnancy device, increased healthcare
expenditure, rise in disposable income, and increase in prevalence of teenage pregnancy also
stimulate the market growth. In April 2015, Abbott Laboratories received the U.S. FDA approval
for its I-STAT TOTAL HCG test for rapid and accurate detection of HCG hormone in pregnant
women.
Moreover, as compared to lab tests, which are more time consuming and expensive, pregnancy
testing devices provides fast results in less expense. However, the accuracy of pregnancy test
device is less than the lab tests. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2015,
there were 40% cases of unintended pregnancy and 10% cases of teenage pregnancy. Rise in
unintended pregnancies is expected to create the demand for the pregnancy testing devices. For
