mIu is a scientific term of measurement meaning: milli-International units per milliliter (a milliliter = 1/1000th of a liter). mg - milligram (1/1000th of a gram)
Simplified, this means there are 10 milligrams of hcg (pregnancy hormone) per liter of urine in your body.
I don't know what the cut-off levels for a pregnancy test are. I suggest you contact your physician to discuss in more detail exactly what the results mean for you.

The hCG levels should not be used to date a pregnancy since these numbers can vary so widely.hCG levels in weeks from LMP (gestational age)* : * 3 weeks LMP: 5 - 50 mIU/ml * 4 weeks LMP: 5 - 426 mIU/ml * 5 weeks LMP: 18 - 7,340 mIU/ml * 6 weeks LMP: 1,080 - 56,500 mIU/ml * 7 - 8 weeks LMP: 7, 650 - 229,000 mIU/ml * 9 - 12 weeks LMP: 25,700 - 288,000 mIU/ml * 13 - 16 weeks LMP: 13,300 - 254,000 mIU/ml * 17 - 24 weeks LMP: 4,060 - 165,400 mIU/ml * 25 - 40 weeks LMP: 3,640 - 117,000 mIU/ml * Non-pregnant females:
That number is well within normal limits. The numbers can vary quite a lot and still be normal. Please see the chart below: 10 DPO: 10 - 50 mIU/ml HcG 13 DPO: 20 - 100 mIU/ml HcG 16 DPO: 40 - 200 mIU/ml HcG 19 DPO: 80 - 400 mIU/ml HcG 22 DPO: 160 - 800 mIU/ml HcG Since you were 56 at 16 DPO, you are within the normal limits. Congratulations on your pregnancy!
Blood pregnancy tests are able to determine how much hCG or pregnancy hormone is in your system at a time. A test with a reading of under 5 mIU/ml is considered not pregnant. A level above 25 mIU/ml is considered to be pregnant while any reading between 5 and 25 requires a repeat test to know one way or another. For a healthy pregnancy to be maintained any number below 1,200 mIU/ml must double every 48-72 hours.

The healthy hcg level at 3 weeks is 5 - 50 mIU/ml

The BHCG varies with the gestational age of the fetus. It can range from 0 to over 100,000. It begins at 0 and doubles about every 2 days until it peaks around 10 weeks gestation then begins to steadily decline and then levels off for the remainder of the pregnancy.
Well I suppose you can take a pregnancy test at any time but for best result I recommend * Take the test in the morning, if possible, because your hCG (pregnancy hormone) levels are at it's highest * Don't drink a bunch of fluids before taking the test because it will dilute your urine and can affect the results * Take the test no more than 1-2 days before expected period. Although some test say that you can see results up to 5 days before your missed period the percentage of accuracy is very low. * urinate for as long as possible on the foam like strip * wait for the results
It means that your beta human chorionic gonadotropin blood serum level has been tested and has come back with a value of 1.2 nanograms per mililiter (ng/ml). This converts to exactly 18 milli-International Units (mIU). The conversion is 1 ng/ml = 15 mIU. Hope this helps!!
A woman's blood syrum is tested for a hormone called "hCG". hCG is detectable in the blood serum of approximately 5% of pregnant women by 8 days after conception, and in virtually all the rest by 11 days. HCG rises progressively from conception.A blood serum level of less than 5 mIU/ml (5 IU/L) can be considered negative and anything above 25 mIU/ml (25 IU/L) positive for pregnancy.
