What does hcg levels of 1700 mean?
Human chorionic gonadotropin, or hCG, is produced during pregnancy. An hCG level of 7000 would indicate a 5 to 6 week gestational age.
Which hormone is tested in the pregnancy tests?
hCG is the hormone it tests for - Human chorionic gonadotropin
Pregnancy testing is based on testing of?
based upon urine....levels of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) are present in the urine (more than 25 mIU)
One positive one negative result no period and pregnancy symptoms are you pregnant?
As I was once told, "a positive is a positive"The body produced a hormone called HCG only when pregnant.HCG is the hormone that is produced by the placenta during pregnancy. This hormone is what a pregnancy test detects. It stands for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin. During a normal pregnancy, the HCG levels will steadily rise throughout pregnancy.
Can amphetamines affect a pregnancy test?
If the test is a conventional pregnancy test, it should not matter. Conventional tests detect increased levels of HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin), which can only be produced by a fertilized follicle. However, you should consult a doctor if you are pregnant, and using amphetamines.
What hormone level you should be when pregnant?
Estrogen levels vary tremendously when you are pregnant. There is no "set" value for a week of pregnancy just a very wide range. If you are concerned, you should talk to your doctor.
How cen see the women has pregnant?
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a hormone present in the blood within about a week of conception. It is the hormone detected in a blood or urine pregnancy test, but it usually takes three to four weeks for levels of hCG to be high enough to be detected by home pregnancy tests. It is secreted by cells that develop into the placenta.
How soon after implantation do hCG levels rise?
HCG stands for "Human Chorionic Gonadotropin", the pregnancy hormone. HCG is being produced by the placenta and enters the blood stream as soon as implantation happens, about one week after fertilization and ovulation, when the embryo implants and the placenta attaches to the uterine lining.
Menstrual flow begins in response to?
Menstrual flow begins in response to: 1) falling levels of both estrogen and progesterone 2)falling levels of progesterone only 3)falling levels of estrogen only 4)a rise in human chorionic gonadotropin
What does the medical abbreviation hCG level mean?
It doesn't tell you how far along you are, just that you are pregnant. HCG is the hormone women produce when they are pregnant. Here are more opinions and answers from other FAQ Farmers: * Your HCG levels double every 2-3 days during your pregnancy. * HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) is a hormone produced ONLY during pregnancy. Pregnancy tests screen for this by a urine test, it's there or it's not. * Contrary to Jamie's response, your HCG level can indicate roughly how far along you are in your pregnancy. Ask your doctor. * HCG is not only produced when pregnant. Males can have HCG levels high enough to be detected by a home pregnancy test and women can also, when they are NOT pregnant. The HCG can be produced by certain tumors. In pregnancy HCG keeps the corpus luteum around to produce estrogen and progesterone, which are necessary in pregnancy. Also, HCG levels differ from each pregnant woman and the doubling is the most important factor. A high HCG level can also indicate a multi gestation pregnancy
What does it mean when a doctor says your hormone levels indicate that you're pregnant?
one hormone that is a good indicator of pregnancy is hCG which stands for human chorionic gonadotropin. it is only present if the woman is few weeks or maybe days pregnant. ask the doctor what hormone is he/she particularly referring to. as i know it, pregnancy test kits that can be bought in pharmacies measure the amount of hCG in the urine. --thoughtfulobserver
What is hCG?
HGC LevelsHere are answers and opinions from FAQ Farmers: I don't know the exact definition, but it is a hormone a woman's body produces when she is pregnant. Home pregnancy tests have chemicals that "look" for HCG in the urine. If there is HGC in the urine, the test will show a positive.HCG stands for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, a hormone ONLY produced during pregnancy. I'm not really sure if "levels" are important, just if it's there or not. That's what pregnancy tests screen for in your urine.From what I understand, after two or more blood tests, the doctor can tell wheather the levels of HCG are rising, or lowering. If they are rising, it is good, because it rises a lot over the first three months (also the cause for most morning sickness). If they levels are rapidly decreasing, it's a sign of a miscarriage (that happened to me, that's the only reason I know all this), and if it's slowly decreasing, it probably means your into your second trimester, when the levels do drop or stop excessivly reproducing, but of course, still stay in your system. From one blood test, they can see if your pregnant, that's how the home pregnany tests work as well, but they can't tell if the pregnancy is viable until one or more blood tests are taken. I don't know if all this is totally right, but it's the gist of it.The Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is a hormone produced by the mother's body during pregnancy. This is also the hormone for which a home pregnancy testing kit will test. Most home pregnancy tests will detect levels of HCG at or above 50mlU, but some 'early response' style tests can detect smaller amounts. In a normal pregnancy, the HCG levels should at least double every two to three days in the first trimester. This is why two blood tests taken a couple of days apart are often used to determine the viability of an early pregnancy.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To be honest part of your answer is wrong. You can receive HGC after you are pregnant as well. If you look up on the internet about molar pregnancies... there is weird way that HGC levels are given off into your body without you being pregnant._____________________________________________________________________Rising HCG levels during pregnancy is important. If not enough HCG amount to support the current state of pregnancy the baby may be miscarried. Urine samples are done at every dr. appt. to check to make sure you have the right levels etc...
