Hi, In the Quantiative Beta HCG blood pregnancy test, the value of HCG that the tests looks for before you get a positive, is low because it determines and confirms pregnancy very early. If you have low HCG in your blood test result, this may means several things. * Your not as far along as you thought you was. * Your at risk of miscarriage. In the case of risk of miscarriage, the doctors usually repeat the blood test within 48 hours to see if HCG levels have decreased or increased.

Is low blood sugar a symptom of pregnancy?

Low blood sugar is not a routine symptom of pregnancy. If you suspect you have low blood sugar, see your doctor immediately, because this could be a complication of pregnancy known as gestational diabetes. Gestational diabetes is treatable and does not mean you have diabetes for life--it is a pregnancy induced condition. Most doctors and midwives will have you do an oral glucose challenge test at some point, which screens for this condition.

Over the counter pregnancy test are directly proportional to the pregnancy time of the person. If the pregnancy is in the early stages it is highly probable that the test will show a false negative, because the levels of hCG in the urine are still too low to be detected.
