What does the acetone pregnancy test consist of?

By Silvia Azaña Gutiérrez B.Sc., M.Sc. (embryologist).
Last Update: 06/04/2024

This home pregnancy test involves adding a small amount of nail polish remover (about a tablespoon) to a glass and mixing it with the woman's urine.

Now simply watch for any reaction, such as bubbles, which would indicate that the woman is pregnant.

However, there is no scientific evidence for this test and to confirm pregnancy, a reliable pregnancy test should be taken, such as a urine test available in pharmacies or a blood test at a health care centre.
