Being pregnant causes HGC to be in your body. If you want more detail than that; it's a hormone that your body produces when you are pregnant. That is what home pregnancy tests detect. If you have HGC in your urine, you are pregnant.
P.S. its actually HCG... if you'd like info on HGC, please go to this wikipedia link:

There is a wide range of Serum Beta hCG during the first month of pregnancy. If the egg is fertilized, blastocyst implants in the endometrium on day 21, and hCG levels are present. Beta hCG levels should double approximately every 2 days for the first four weeks of pregnancy.
some people have had low beta hcg levels and not be pregnant i am one of them,.,
test used to measure the levels of hormones in the blood plasma
Tumor hCG refers to human chorionic gonadotropin produced by certain tumors, such as germ cell tumors and trophoblastic diseases, which can indicate malignancy. Beta hCG, on the other hand, specifically refers to the beta subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin, which is measured in blood tests for pregnancy confirmation and monitoring. While both forms of hCG can be present in the body, tumor hCG is associated with cancer, whereas beta hCG is typically linked to pregnancy. In clinical practice, measuring beta hCG levels can help distinguish between these conditions.
I believe that is impossible you hcg levels cant rise unless your pregnant
Beta HCG is a molecule composed of two pieces: alpha and beta HCG. Free beta only stresses you're talking about a loose beta subunit instead of it assembled into the intact HCG molecule.
Yes, it is possible to still be pregnant with a Beta HCG level of 246 a day after a week of bleeding. While a drop in HCG levels can indicate a miscarriage, levels can vary significantly in early pregnancy. It's important to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation, including additional HCG testing and an ultrasound, to determine the status of the pregnancy.
It just means that your HCG levels are within the 4 week age.
Yes, hCG levels can continue to rise in cases of a blighted ovum, as the hormone is produced by the placenta, which can still develop even when the embryo does not. This can lead to misleadingly high hCG levels, giving the appearance of a viable pregnancy. Ultimately, a blighted ovum is diagnosed through ultrasound, which typically shows an empty gestational sac without an embryo. Monitoring hCG levels over time is essential to determine the status of the pregnancy.
Yes, a high beta-hCG level can occur even if a woman is not pregnant. This can happen in cases of certain medical conditions, such as trophoblastic disease, certain cancers, or hormonal imbalances. Additionally, a recent miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy may also result in elevated beta-hCG levels despite the absence of a viable pregnancy. Therefore, further medical evaluation is often necessary to determine the cause of elevated levels.
My daughter sam has phantom beta hcg her levels are at 182 and have been for 1 year they said she could have pstt.My sisters can down with this 1 and half ago she had pstt and phantom bete to what can i do does anyone have this that can help me.They said sam had something under her liver but have done nothing.
Yes, having low hcg levels or no hcg levels while pregnant can be hereditary
