HCG Pregnancy Test

The HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) progesterone test is an important examination used to evaluate the pregnancy status and related physiological conditions of women.

HCG detection:

1. Generation and significance: After fertilized eggs implant, the placenta begins to form and secrete HCG. By detecting the HCG level in blood or urine, it can determine whether a woman is pregnant, and the degree of its increase can also reflect the development of the embryo.
2. Early diagnosis: In the early stages of pregnancy, the HCG level will rise rapidly, which helps to detect pregnancy as early as possible.
3. Abnormal indication: If the HCG level does not increase ideally or declines, it may indicate problems such as poor embryo development, threatened miscarriage, or ectopic pregnancy.

Progesterone detection:

1. Secretion and function: Progesterone is mainly secreted by the corpus luteum of the ovary and plays an important role in maintaining pregnancy, such as supporting embryo implantation and inhibiting uterine contractions.
2. Evaluation of luteal function: By detecting the progesterone level, the functional status of the corpus luteum can be understood, which has certain significance for judging the stability of pregnancy.
3. Reference value: Abnormal progesterone levels may be related to situations such as insufficient luteal function and threatened miscarriage.

Doctors will combine the test results of HCG and progesterone, as well as the clinical symptoms of pregnant women, for comprehensive analysis and judgment to provide more accurate diagnosis and corresponding treatment suggestions.
