Doc mentioned some hormone level looking good in my report but i forgot the name lol. I keep hearing one is called the pregnancy hormone. Can someone tell me which one that is?
Hello! The pregnancy hormone is called hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin). It's what the urine test kits detect to confirm your pregnancy in the early days. It rises very quickly in the first trimester, which is why we feel so tired and nauseous, but it's completely normal.
It's called hCG, and honestly, I blame this hormone for all my crazy midnight cravings for gulab jamun and spicy chaat! It's the one that shows up on those pregnancy test strips. It does some wild things to our appetite!
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, or hCG, is known as the pregnancy hormone. I tracked my doubling hCG levels on my pregnancy tracker app during the first few weeks, which was so fascinating to watch. It's produced by the placenta after implantation.
It is hCG, and oh my god, that hormone is responsible for all the crazy mood swings and exhaustion we feel in the early days! It's tough, but it's also the beautiful hormone that keeps our little babies growing safely. Sending you so much love during this special journey.
Haha, it's hCG, the master of mischief! This is the hormone that makes those two lines appear on the test kit and then proceeds to make you cry over spilled milk or crave bizarre food combos. Wear its symptoms like a badge of honor!
