Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Hello, a urine early pregnancy test measures the level of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in the urine. This test method is a qualitative and semi-quantitative examination, with a minimum detection limit of 25 mIU/mL. Since it measures the hormone level in the urine, this test needs to be performed seven days or more after a missed menstrual period to determine if pregnancy has occurred.
