Your heath care provider may recommend the "Quantitative hCG - Blood Test" in the below given situations:
- Pregnancy Confirmation: The test is commonly used to confirm pregnancy. It can detect hCG in the blood as early as 8 to 10 days after conception, even before the missed period. This makes it useful for early pregnancy detection, especially when the results of a home pregnancy test are inconclusive or when early pregnancy complications are suspected.
- Monitoring Pregnancy Progress: The hCG Total Quantitative test is performed serially during pregnancy to monitor the progression of hCG levels. It can help assess the viability of the pregnancy, confirm appropriate fetal development, and detect any potential pregnancy complications, such as ectopic pregnancy or miscarriage.
- Evaluation of Trophoblastic Tumors: In cases of suspected trophoblastic tumors, such as gestational trophoblastic disease or choriocarcinoma, the hCG Total Quantitative test is ordered to monitor hCG levels. These tumors can produce abnormally high levels of hCG, and the test helps in diagnosis, treatment monitoring, and assessing the effectiveness of therapy.
