Why are women in pregnancy test ads always happy it's positive?
Why are women in pregnancy test ads always happy it's positive?
I mean why? Wouldn't it be much more realistic and relatable if the ad was like "oh thank fuck I'm not pregnant"
You're viewing a single thread.
If the people in that ad need a test to figure out if the wife/gf is pregnant then I have a bridge to sell them!
Harrumph! Give the ad guys some credit eh? Have you considered they're looking in shock at a negative test? This is the kind of story i'd 'click to learn more'
she just has a boulder sized tumor in her stomach and is making sure she isnt also pregnant ok
they had a test left over and he decided to take it as a joke, imagine their surprise when he is pregnant as well!
Cancer.
sorry?
A cis man testing positive for a pregnancy test is a sign of cancer. Either prostate or testicular, don't remember which.
oh, that took a dark turn 😶
Not necessarily. Once, a redditor got his life saved from that. He posted a Rage Comics post (shows you how long ago this was) where he decided to take one of his girlfriend's pregnancy tests as a goof, and it showed up as positive. The commenters told him that's a sign of cancer, so he got tested, and sure enough, he had a very early stage of cancer, that was so early, it could be nipped in the bud with minimal to no complications.
On the other hand it was a redditor who survived.
yeah but still that makes the punchline of the joke "he has cancer". Not a good joke.
Yeah. Genuinely not fun. Apologies if my initial comment came off as glib.
Some types of testicular cancers produce HCG, which is what most pregnancy tests identify the presence of in urine. HCG could also be used as a treatment method for hypogonadism, but supplementation of exogenous Luteinizing Hormone with LHRH would be a more direct way of both diagnosing and treating hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.
Anyways, if anyone who reads this ever notices something strange on their testis, talk to a doctor. Peeing on a stick isn't a reliable way of identifying testicular cancer, as many forms won't produce HCG and the negative result on the pregnancy test could lead to a false reassurance.
The tagline says "for when you want to be sure" so I'm pretty sure it's a bit
