Pregnancy Test (Qualitative)

The Pregnancy Test (Qualitative) is a common diagnostic method used to determine if a woman is pregnant. It measures the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a hormone produced by the placenta after the embryo attaches to the uterine lining. This test can be conducted using a blood or urine sample. A qualitative pregnancy test only provides a positive or negative result.

  • Profile Name: Pregnancy Test (Qualitative)
  • Sample Type: Urine/Blood
  • Preparations Required: No specific preparation or restrictions are required for this test.
  • Report Time: 4 hours

Typically, hCG can be detected as early as 10 days after conception, but this can vary between individuals and pregnancies. A positive result confirms pregnancy, while a negative result suggests that the individual is not pregnant. However, it's important to note that many factors can influence the results, and all outcomes should be discussed with a healthcare provider for accurate interpretation.
