Confusing Pregnancy Tests

I myself never have had the need to take a pregnancy test, though I admit I’ve been present when a close family friend got her good news. Our friend was patiently trying for a new bundle of joy, so she had become a professional at the various plus signs, lines, and facial expressions. However, to the innocent by stander reading the pregnancy test might seem like an impossible feat. The makers of these tests should be more efficient in their descriptions of the symbols; smiley face, frowning face, the only face I’m wearing is a confused one. The graphics are unclear, and the written instructions that come along with the tests don’t offer much of an explanation for the perplexing pictures. The Pregnancy test providers should be more aware of their audience’s needs, and offer answers for those tests that don’t read as clearly and distinctly as the diagrams that come in the instruction manual.
