The Beta Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (BHCG) urine 24-hour test measures the level of the beta subunit of hCG in a 24-hour urine collection. This test is used primarily to confirm pregnancy and monitor its progression, particularly in cases where early detection is crucial. Elevated levels of BHCG in urine can indicate a viable pregnancy or may suggest conditions such as ectopic pregnancy or trophoblastic disease. The 24-hour collection helps provide a more accurate assessment of hormone levels over a full day, offering insights into the body’s hormonal status. Proper collection and handling of the urine sample are essential for accurate results.
