FSH Urine Rapid Test™ (Cassette) RapiCard InstaTest description:

Los Angeles-based Diagnostic Automation/Cortez Diagnostics, Inc. offers a FSH Urine RapiCard Insta Test (cassette) which is a qualitative test for the determination of FSH (human Follicular Stimulating Hormone) concentration in urine specimen.   Results on this FSH Rapid Test are read visually without the need for any instrument.  The FSH Rapid Test is for in-vitro diagnostic use only.

The FSH Urine Rapid Test, part of a classification of Fertility Rapid Tests, is a quick and easy one-step fertility test that detects the FSH level in urine specimen.  A positive result on the FSH Rapid Test measures whether FSH level is at, or greater than, 25 mIU/mL (sensitivity) which suggests a transition to the menopause or pre-menopause stage may be occurring.  A positive FSH Urine Rapid Test does not give information on exact timing of menopause, but serves as an effective screening tool to check increases in FSH levels.

The FSH Urine Rapid Test can be stored at temperatures between 4 to 30 degrees celsius.  The FSH Rapid Test, or FSH Menopause Rapid Test, should be kept away from direct sunlight, moisture, and heat.

    a    high sensitivity and reliability (greater than 99% accuracy)

If positive,  two colored bands on the FSH Rapid Test are visible and the test band is equal to or darker than the control band, which indicates FSH is present in the sample at or above the sensitivity of 25 mIU/mL; if negative, only one colored band appears on the control region or the test band appears but is lighter than the control band.  The FSH Rapid Test is invalid if no colored band appears on the control C region - repeat with a new test kit.
