It's simply a reliable blood test to confirm pregnancy early on, usually around 10 days after conception. Since we don't have time to keep waiting and guessing with multiple home kits, getting this test done gives a clear, definite answer quickly. Just get it done at a lab nearby and show the report to your gynac.
This is a quantitative blood test that checks the exact levels of human chorionic gonadotropin in your body. It is amazing because, unlike urine tests, it actually helps you track the precise age of the fetus. Most pregnancy tracker apps will tell you that these hCG numbers should ideally double every 48 hours in the early weeks!
With my PCOS history, my periods were always irregular, so home kits were very confusing for me. My gynac advised a Beta hCG test, which is a blood test to measure the exact hormone level to see if the pregnancy is progressing safely. It really helped ease my anxiety during those crucial first few weeks.
It is just a simple blood test that measures the pregnancy hormone in your body. My doctor suggested it in the first month to make sure my hormone levels were rising perfectly, which they were! It's a super positive way to know everything is on track right from the start.
During my early pregnancy, my doctor ordered this test to confirm my pregnancy, as my home urine tests were very faint. It basically measures the exact amount of hCG (pregnancy hormone) in your blood, which is way more accurate than home kits.
