Pregnancy Relaxin Test – quick and reliable pregnancy indication (dog & cat)
The Pregnancy Relaxin Test from The Tester helps you quickly determine if your dog or cat is pregnant. The test detects the hormone relaxin in blood, a pregnancy-specific marker produced by the placenta. Within 10-15 minutes, you get a clear visual result, allowing you to plan appropriate care and feeding in time.
What is relaxin and when do you test?
Relaxin increases during gestation and is usually detectable from about day 21-28 after mating. If you test earlier and the result is negative, repeat the test after 7-10 days. Keep in mind that very early resorptions or singleton gestation can affect values.
How does the test work?
The test measures relaxin in a small blood sample (serum/plasma or whole blood – see package insert). Apply the sample in the provided buffer to the test cassette and read the result after 10-15 minutes. The test requires no laboratory equipment and is quick and easy to perform.
Benefits of the Pregnancy Relaxin Test (Dog & Cat):
- Fast, clear results within minutes
- One product suitable for both dog and cat
- Detects a pregnancy-specific marker (relaxin)
- Useful for breeders and pet owners to confirm pregnancy early
- Practical tool in addition to clinical assessment or ultrasound
When to use the test?
Use the test from day 21-28 after mating or when you suspect pregnancy. If the result is negative early, repeat the test after 7-10 days. The test is also suitable to complement an ultrasound, for example when an ultrasound is too early for a clear picture.

Important note for correct use
Always follow the package insert (IFU) for the correct sample type and testing time. In case of a negative result early in gestation: retest after 7-10 days. In case of doubt or abnormal results: consult your vet (e.g. confirmation via ultrasound).
