Common questions about beta hCG testing
Need early pregnancy confirmation? Here's what you need to know.
How early can this test detect pregnancy?
Blood tests can detect pregnancy from about 6-8 days after conception (ovulation or embryo transfer), which is before your period is due. Home urine tests usually don’t work until the day of your missed period or later.
What if I just want peace of mind?
That’s completely valid. If you’re anxious, have irregular cycles, or just want definitive early confirmation, a blood test removes doubt. Many people find the certainty of a number (rather than squinting at faint lines) very reassuring.
Can this test tell me how pregnant I am?
Roughly, yes. hCG levels correlate with pregnancy stage, but there’s wide variation between people. We can give you an estimate based on your level, but an ultrasound scan is needed for accurate pregnancy dating (usually from 6 weeks).
When should I test after IVF?
Usually 9-14 days after embryo transfer (your clinic will advise specific timing). Testing too early can give false negatives or low levels that cause unnecessary worry. We can provide serial testing to track hCG rise after initial confirmation.
What hCG level confirms pregnancy?
Any hCG level above 5 mIU/ml confirms pregnancy. Levels at first detection are usually 5-50 and then rise rapidly. We’ll tell you your exact level and what it means for how far along you might be.
Why have a blood test instead of a home test?
Blood tests are more sensitive, detect pregnancy earlier, give an exact hCG number (not just a line), and remove doubt when home tests are faint or unclear. Essential after IVF, before certain medications, or when you need definitive confirmation early.
Happy stories from Parents
Real experiences from those who trust our care.
The staff are great and the service is impeccable. Lauren the sonographer is empathetic, personable and so kind which made our 8 week scan a wonderful experience
I’ve visited Flowan a few times over the last few years for various reasons and every time the service and care is outstanding. There are clinics much closer to me I could opt for but travel out of my way to Flowan simply for the service.
Felt safe and comfortable at this clinic! Very good service, would recommend!!
We came for an early pregnancy scan. Such lovely, professional staff at the clinic. Explained everything super clearly and were so friendly! Would really recommend.
The team are so friendly and helpful, really excellent service. We asked not to see the gender of the baby but for it to be part of the surprise package and we couldn’t be happier!! Such a lovely experience seeing our baby
