"A miscarriage is a loss of innocence. Never again does a positive pregnancy test promise a baby; it merely promises a possible baby on the far side of many rocky shoals. So if I were trying to have a baby now, I think I'd spring for repeat hCG tests even though I'd know full well they were not definitive...But enabling patients to do more testing at home is progress, she said, whether it's fertility-related hormones or pregnancy hormones. Boston IVF has recently developed a test that allows infertility patients to test their estrogen levels in their saliva at home."
