About Pregnancy, Urine Test in Santa Fe
The Pregnancy, Urine Test measures hCG levels in a urine sample to provide a qualitative result, typically reported as positive or negative.
Human chorionic gonadotropin is a glycoprotein hormone that appears in urine and blood shortly after a fertilized egg implants in the uterine lining. The urine test uses antibodies that bind to hCG, producing a visible signal when the hormone is present above the test's detection threshold.
This test is commonly ordered to confirm pregnancy, monitor early pregnancy, or investigate symptoms such as a missed menstrual period. It is also used before certain medical procedures or when prescribing medications that may affect a developing fetus.
Results are generally available within 1-3 business days. A positive result indicates that hCG was detected, while a negative result means it was not found at the time of testing. Very early pregnancy, diluted urine, or certain medications can affect accuracy, so a follow-up test may be recommended when results are unclear.
