Pregnancy test question

[AmandaL]

I'm doing a school project and I need some help. We're researching whether or not to invest in importing pregnancy tests into Algeria (it's a ficticious situation). Can anyone tell me if these tests are used regularly in Algeria? If women are allowed to use them? ect... There is very little information available and I figured this is the best way to get it.

Thanks!

Of course they are used in Algeria And women are allowed to use them. May i ask you what made you think that women may not be able to use them??
Thank you.

Could you answer this for me too?

Where do Algerians buy a home pregnancy tests (not the kind a doctor adminsters)?
Are they expensive? Can the majority of the population afford them?

I ask this because I've read that the unemployment rate is very high in the country and that people don't have a lot of disposable income to spend on luxury items. Is this true?

Thank you for your help and patience.

Many people live in rural areas and are not educated about anything that concerns pregnancy prevention. So, many don't have access to birth control, pregnancy tests and condoms. The middle class does have access to pregnancy tests/birth control and have the means to go see doctors.
