Q: i had implantation on the same day i had beta quantitative done 5/6 dpo, would there have been hcg detected? my level was <1.00.

Not usually: Following HCG shot prior to retrieval a blood test for b-hcg will be positive for about a week. Would expect neg beta on day of et but honestly why would you check it?

Q: what are reasons for false negative for a quantitative beta hcg test?

False negatives: All lab tests have a certain percentages of false negatives and positives.

Q: does the hcg diet (using injections) effect the beta hcg in a quantatative blood test?

Beta HCG : A very good question. The pills and injections given in the "hcg diet" will cause blood and urine levels of bhcg to rise. However, two measurements, a week or more apart, should differentiate between pregnancy ( where the levels will rise predictably) and diet drugs, assuming you are taking a constant dose for the diet treatments.

Q: is hooks effect seen in quantitative beta hcg blood test? does it have to be diluted to check if high levels if present?

No: The effect is only seen in some one step HCG urine tests. Serum quantitative tests are not subject to the effect.

Q: in quantitative beta hcg test, wil they dilute the blood also 2 check for high amount if hcg if present?do they do test both with conc.blod and dilute?

Not routinely: If the ordering doctor has a concen about very high HCG levels, as may happen in some tumors, s/he should notify the lab so that a dilution may be done.

Q: does quantitative beta hcg use serum to detect hcg in blood?

Yes: Serum is the part of blood. It is the liquid part left when blood clots and is centrifuged . Many 'blood' tests, including beta HCG are done on serum.

Question 1

what does a beta hcg quantitative result of 303,5 miu/ml mean?

Accepted Answer

HCG level:  Women who are not pregnant usually have an HCG level  less than 5 mIU/ml.   An HCG quantitative result of 3,035 mIU/mL is consistent with pregnancy.  4 weeks: 10 -708 mIU/mL &amp; 5 weeks: 217 - 8,245 mIU/mL.

Question 2

went to the dr for hcg test and it reads, beta hcg quantitative interpretation negative, what does that mean? i'm 5 weeks pregnant, hcg was 1300.

Accepted Answer

Conflicting results: A BHCG negative means that you are not pregnant. A BHCG of 1300 means that you are early pregnant. Both test results can not be true if they were done on the same day.

Question 3

hi, i did a beta hcg quantitative serum test once 39 days after sex and it came back negative 1.2 and took a home pregnancy test a week after, it came back negative too. is it accurate? should i worry about cryptic pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

: You did not state but I assume you has missed your period for at least one month (39 - 14 + 7). Ectopic pregnancy or normal pregnancy is ruled out with two negative tests, blood and urine, presumably on day 25th and 32nd after missed period.

Question 4

what is the best time to take a quantitative serum beta hcg test?

Accepted Answer

3 wks after sex: There is no need to rush. A pregnancy test gives a reliable result 3 weeks after sex (3 wks after when conception might have occurred), or 1 week after missing a period. If done sooner, a positive result is likely real, but a negative result may be due to testing too soon, and thus lead to a repeat test. If a woman gets her normal regular period, then she is not pregnant, and a test isn't needed.
