The Emergence of Digital Pregnancy Testing Kits
In recent years, the introduction of digital pregnancy test kits, the new era in pregnancy test kits, has rapidly increased the adoption and offered market growth opportunities. The devices like Clearblue Easy have quickly been adopted as home digital pregnancy test kits. In addition, some other companies- leading industry players- started developing digital pregnancy test kits. The constant advancement in pregnancy test kits and their technology is expected to boost the industry's growth over the forecast period.Advancement in Pregnancy Testing Kits for Early Detection of Pregnancy Status
Most new kits come up with advancements in the global pregnancy test kits market. The test kits offer early detection (up to 5 to 6 days before missed period). These pregnancy test kits becoming more popular in recent times. The vendors offering some of the products that offer early pregnancy detection have a high potential to accelerate industry growth in the upcoming time. The demand for these test kits is increasing because people know their pregnancy status without waiting to miss their period. Most women who conceived without protected sex are the major targeted population for this kind of pregnancy test kit.Rising Rate of Unplanned Pregnancies
Globally, approximately half of the pregnancies are unintended every year. With the increasing burden of unplanned pregnancies and rising abortion among girls and maternal women, several governments focused on increasing knowledge about pregnancy testing as a preventive measure. Among those initiatives, pregnancy testing kits were one of the leading parts. According to the World Family Planning 2022 published report (2022), around 41 countries where around half of the women who want to avoid pregnancies use modern contraceptives, while approximately 22 countries are only from Sub-Saharan Africa. The population that avoids pregnancies promotes the growth of the pregnancy test kits market. With increasing knowledge among adult, teenage, and maternal-age women about unintended pregnancy, the demand for pregnancy test kits increases to avoid unwanted pregnancies and family planning.Rising Birth Rate in Advanced Maternal Age
Pregnancy at the advanced maternal age (age 35 and above) is recognized as a risk factor for adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes. However, advanced maternal-age pregnancies have become more popular over the last two decades. The possible maternal risk and pregnancy complications at age 35 and above include chromosomal abnormalities, spontaneous Miscarriage, preterm labor, gestational diabetes mellitus, pre-eclampsia, cesarean delivery, and stillbirth. Some complications are commonly known among educated women in developed countries. These factors turn most women to test their pregnancy status as a preventive method at home, contributing to the home pregnancy test kits market.SEGMENTATION INSIGHTS
INSIGHTS BY SAMPLE TYPE
The global pregnancy test kits market by sample type is segmented into urine and other samples. The urine sample segment accounted for a higher global pregnancy test kit market share in 2022. A urine sample is considered an ideal sample for pregnancy testing. Women or medical professionals commonly choose the urine sample in clinical or home pregnancy testing. The capacity of a urine sample to carry a high volume of hCG hormone is a vital biomarker of pregnancy that accelerates segmental growth. A self-test is expected to be positive in at-home pregnancy when hCG is obtained in urine. A urine-based test at home generally requires a higher hCG level to turn out the result. The factors that increase the demand for urine sample-based pregnancy test kits are easy to collect and handle and convenient methods at home.Segmentation by Sample Type
