Can you use a human pregnancy test on dog?

Aug 01, 2023

No, human pregnancy tests are not suitable for dogs. Human pregnancy tests are designed to detect human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a hormone produced during human pregnancy. Dogs do not produce hCG, so using these tests on them would not provide accurate results.

If you suspect that your dog might be pregnant, it's essential to do a home pregnancy test or consult with a veterinarian for proper diagnosis and guidance. Veterinarians have access to various methods and specialized tests to confirm pregnancy in dogs. One such option is the Bellylabs pregnancy test for dogs – also suitable for a home-use– which measures the relaxin hormone.

The relaxin hormone is produced by the placenta during pregnancy, making it a reliable indicator of dog pregnancy. Unlike human pregnancy tests, the Bellylabs test is specifically designed to detect relaxin in dogs, ensuring accurate results.

Attempting to use a human pregnancy test on a dog is not a reliable or appropriate method for determining pregnancy in dogs and could lead to inaccurate results and confusion about your dog's health. Always seek professional veterinary advice and consider using specialized tests like the Bellylabs pregnancy test for dogs when assessing your pet's well-being during pregnancy. This will help ensure the best care for your pregnant dog and her potential puppies.
