I had done Quantative Beta-HCG blood test almost 7 days before my period is due.It was said that this sensitive test shows the level of HCG in blood and the result was ( HCG < 1) which means negative.


Here are the three Questions:

*Can this kind of test detect HCG in blood one week before period is due????

*What's the HCG level supposed to be one week before period is due ( if there is pregnancy) ????

*Is the result i got from the test accurate? or still early ?


Please answer any of the questions or all of them if you Know.

What's your opinion? please advice soooooooooooooon.

Here are the answers to your questions.

1. It can IF you implanted before that day. But if you did not (which most women do not implant until that day or after) there would be no HCG to detect yet.

2. This is a website that can help you with the levels at certain times in the pregnancy.

3. I would say that you need to stop worrying or you are going to worry yourself into a missed period. Just relax and wait until you miss your AF to test again.

You probably are not pregnant. So relax. All this worrying is not going to do you any good.

HTH!
