Beta hCG Blood Test
A test for confirming and tracking pregnancy.
Service Description
hCG appears in the blood and urine of pregnant women as early as 10 days after conception. This is a quantitative hCG test done via a blood draw, unlike traditional urine pregnancy tests. Quantitative hCG measurement helps determine the exact age of the foetus. It can also assist in the diagnosis of abnormal pregnancies, such as ectopic pregnancies, molar pregnancies and possible miscarriages. It is also used as part of a screening test for Down syndrome. This test is also done to diagnose abnormal conditions not related to pregnancy that can raise hCG levels. Don't delay in arranging your Beta hCG Blood Test.
