Keep doing the most beautiful thing in the world and test maybe twice a month at the time you expect the next period.

But I also know that someone who suspects that they might be (unexpectedly) pregnant may want to know as soon as possible after a missed period if they're pregnant. They may want to buy a test THAT DAY and not wait a day or two for the mail order to come. | Quote: |  | | | Ovulation test I can understand, but why so many pregnancy tests per month?

Buy two pregnancy tests a month at Swiss prices, and you've got CHF480- in tests. Buy the strips off eBay, and you've got the same tests for CHF3-.
I know we like to throw money away in Switzerland, but that seems a little silly.

| | Re: where to buy cheap pregnancy test? | Quote: | |  | | | I guess after about 3 months you can cancel the order. | | | | | You can always keep them in reserve for the next time. There will always be the next time. Moreover, during all those months you can still have a lot of pleasure body only can take.
P.S. Oh why am I stating the obvious? |

Let's assume you get lucky and get pregnant within 12 months. Buy two pregnancy tests a month at Swiss prices, and you've got CHF480- in tests. | | | | | That doesn't follow. You only do a test after missing a period. Not every month. Also, you stop with the tests after confirmation. How many many non-menopausal, non-pregnant women miss a period (or are late) every month? OK, if you're highly irregular... but that's not massively common.
If you can't wait a few days, order a couple of tests through the post just after you've had your period - in preparation for the possibly missing the next one.

They sell in bulk and ship to CH (they also sell on Ricardo.ch)
Edit: they also sell ovulation tests which are used either to help with a pregnancy or to prevent it (together with basal body temperature method - https://www.healthlinkbc.ca/health-topics/hw202058. )

If you buy a cheap pregnancy test, it might be just arrived later |
