How much does a prenatal test cost?

Patient's question:

Friend doubts she is pregnant now and wants to go to the hospital for a thorough examination. She wants to know how much an early pregnancy test costs.

Doctor's answer:

Different hospitals may have different fees for various tests. If a urine test is used to diagnose early pregnancy, the cost is approximately 10~30 yuan. If a blood HCG test is conducted, the cost is around 60~70 yuan. If an ultrasound is performed, the cost ranges from 120~150 yuan, which is just a rough estimate. Blood HCG can clearly test the hormone levels during pregnancy. Compared to traditional urine HCG, blood HCG is more accurate with lower error margins and can reduce detection time. Blood should be collected 7 days after the embryo implants, or 7 days after menstruation, for high accuracy. The cost will vary depending on the cause, so it should be tailored to your specific situation.
