Do you POAS or Pee in a cup?

When you take a HPT Do you Pee on a stick or in a cup?...Is there one method more reliable than the other...


Ive been told when I POAS not to splash...but when I pee its not usually in a single line, its more like a few lines going in a couple of different directions(sorry TMI)...Could it really affect the result??

Trick I used to conserve FMU - I would pee in a cup with the Dollar Tree test - then, if I saw anything faint, I'd dip my more expensive brand in my "sample" to confirm.

POAS - won't matter if you splatter, you just need some urine on the tester.

I usually POAS. For some reason, it makes me feel better when I pee in a cup and drop it on the stick. I don't know why Chat Icon

Re: Do you POAS or Pee in a cup?

I POAS, most tests have windows so that the "splash" doesn't get in the test window.
