Shop - Beta Human Chorionic Gonodotropin Hormone (BHCG)

The Beta Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (BHCG) test measures the level of the beta subunit of the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in the blood or urine. This hormone is produced by the placenta shortly after conception and plays a vital role in maintaining pregnancy. The BHCG test is commonly used to confirm pregnancy, assess its progression, and monitor conditions such as ectopic pregnancy or molar pregnancy. Elevated levels of BHCG may also indicate certain types of tumors. The test can provide results early in pregnancy and is essential for evaluating reproductive health.
