Congratulations on taking a proactive step in monitoring your health! Beta-Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (BHCG) is a hormone produced during pregnancy, and it is commonly used as a marker to confirm pregnancy or monitor its progression. BHCG levels are typically measured in milli-international units per milliliter (mIU/mL), and they can vary significantly throughout pregnancy, with normal levels ranging from 5 to over 200,000 mIU/mL depending on the stage of gestation.
To assess BHCG levels, a blood test is performed, often in the first trimester of pregnancy. This test helps healthcare providers evaluate the health of the pregnancy, detect potential complications, and identify conditions such as ectopic pregnancy or miscarriage.
