Qualitative Pregnancy Blood Test

* This is not a home test kit. You will need to visit a local lab for testing.

Also Known As

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin Test, HCGTest, HCG Qualitative Blood Test

The Purpose of a Blood Pregnancy Test

You suspect you might be pregnant, but you want to know for sure. The best way to do that is by taking a blood test for pregnancy. It’s an accurate way to determine if you are expecting, and it can detect pregnancy early on—as soon as 10 days post-conception.

What Does the Qualitative Pregnancy Test Measure?

This test detects the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), a hormone produced by pregnant women. It’s important to note that there are two types of blood tests: A qualitative blood pregnancy test evaluates whether you are producing HCG to determine if you are pregnant. A quantitative test, on the other hand, measures the actual levels of HCG in your blood. At-home urine tests also measure HCG, but they are generally not as accurate or reliable as blood testing.

Who Should Take a Qualitative HCG Test?

Women should take this test if they are showing early symptoms associated with pregnancy:

  • Breasts that feel tender or swollen
  • Missed period
  • Nausea or vomiting any time during the day or evening (not just morning sickness)
  • Fatigue
  • A frequent urge to urinate

Qualitative Blood Pregnancy Test Preparation

You don’t need to follow special instructions before the pregnancy blood test.

Blood Pregnancy Test Results

The results are simple: a positive report detected HCG, confirming your pregnancy, while a negative test means you are not pregnant. (The quantitative test reports include actual numbers for your HCG levels, which can give you an idea of how far along you are in your pregnancy.)

If you are trying to conceive and your HCG qualitative blood tests regularly come back negative, you may want to talk with a doctor to see if you are having trouble getting pregnant and require fertility testing, which is also available through Personalabs. If you need to find a physician, ask us about our special telehealth service, which connects you with one of our board-certified physicians.
