Doctor's answer:

Hello, the blood HCG early pregnancy test (human chorionic gonadotropin) is a hormone that is well-known and most commonly used by gynecologists as a "pregnancy test." It is composed of an α and β dimeric glycoprotein. After a woman becomes pregnant, HCG is present in both her blood and urine. Progesterone is a natural gestagen hormone secreted by the corpus luteum of the ovary. It has a significant morphological effect on the estrogen-stimulated endometrium in the body and is essential for maintaining pregnancy.
