What does Beta Human Chorionic Gonadotropin - Urine measure?
This test detects human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a hormone that is commonly produced during pregnancy. It may be used to help determine whether pregnancy is present, including in people with missed periods or pregnancy-related symptoms. Healthcare professionals may also use it as part of the evaluation of certain pregnancy-related conditions. Results are interpreted along with medical history, symptoms, and, when needed, other tests.
