Combined Pregnancy Test and Condom

Pregnancy Test and Condoms are sold side by side in the 99 cent store. Why not just buy one item?

Pregnancy Test Condom - Pregnancy Test and Condoms are sold side by side in the 99 cent store. WHY NOT BUY a single item that can take care of both jobs at the same time ?

I know the current chemistry requires urine from the female partner, but there might be a different way to trigger a test considering where the condom has recently been. Or the lady can drift off to the bathroom and pee on the condom afterwards.

Might also help settle the question of whose baby and when the magic happened.

       Was not aware, but that does make sense. So if your new friend has a positive test your first night, things have already had a couple weeks to develop. But it doesn't prove she is not pregnant, if you get a negative result.   

       The lawyers will love it. They can still argue.

       Well, at least's it's not in Other:General.

       Lawyers simply subpoena the cellphones of each party, to ask the cellphone what happened. Audio and/or video were likely recorded, likely without either/both/all parties' knowledge. If Futbits were worn, the evidence is even clearer. Add a little DNA swab, and the case is airtight; similar to a condom, but not.

       I think it would be best to test market "20 condoms and free pregnancy test strip" before doing the work to make a condom that also a test strip.   

       If there is no market for the two together, there is no point in developing a combo. That is: all those who don't want more babies are over here. And all those that do want babies over there. And there are none that both do and don't want babies in between, well the market is going to be too small.   

       A condom that could test for sex diseases might make more sense. Are there test strips for Aids, or gonorrhea ?

       That, [pop] is a brilliant idea. Not sure if it's implementable, but a brilliant idea. Having test reagents on the inside and the outside would test him and her at the same time. Or him and him. Or it and her.
