Home test showed positive but i want to confirm with blood test now. Im a bit clueless, do i go to a lab directly or need a doctor's slip first? pls guide, first pregnancy so dont know much.
Most local labs like Apollo Clinic or Metropolis do this test quite cheaply. You can even use apps like Pharmeasy or Tata 1mg to book a home sample collection, which is very convenient.
Any standard diagnostic center or pathology lab can do a Beta hCG blood test. You don't even need a doctor's prescription for it in most labs. Just walk in or book a home collection online.
I just called my hospital's desk and they directed me to their in-house lab. It's best to get it done through your hospital or a reputed chain like Suburban Diagnostics so your gynac gets the reports directly.
I was so panicked about my faint line that I rushed to a nearby Lal Pathlabs for a blood test. It's super simple, they just take a normal blood sample and give results the same evening. Don't stress!
You can easily get it done at any nearby diagnostic lab like Dr Lal Pathlabs or Metropolis. It is a very simple blood test that gives clear answers, so don't worry. Wishing you all the beautiful news!
