Test Code

The Beta hCG (Urine) test is a qualitative screening test used primarily to confirm pregnancy. Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) is a hormone produced by the placenta shortly after implantation of a fertilized egg.
This test is commonly used for early pregnancy detection, usually becoming positive around 7–10 days after conception. While urine Beta hCG confirms the presence or absence of pregnancy, it does not measure hormone levels. For monitoring pregnancy progression or diagnosing abnormal conditions such as ectopic pregnancy or trophoblastic disease, a serum Beta hCG (quantitative) test is recommended.
Results should always be correlated with clinical findings and menstrual history.
