The study seeks to: 1. Assess the correlation of this pregnancy test results with serum values (as distinct from urine) hCG. 2. Assess whether or not time of day of urine collection has any impact on the outcome of the dBest test. 3. Assess user comprehension of the pregnancy test, especially assessment of the result.
