What is the value of βhcg for pregnancy?

β-hcg is the general name for human chorionic gonadotropin. It is a common female hormone, mainly secreted by placental cells. It is often used in clinical medicine to detect whether a woman is pregnant, because after a woman becomes pregnant, β-hcg will begin to rise, and will also change with the change of pregnancy weeks. During pregnancy, β-hcg can also be used as a direct basis for detecting the health of pregnant women and fetuses. Therefore, for pregnant women, β-hcg is one of the most important hormones. So how does β-hcg change in the early stages of pregnancy?

β-hcg is not a stable standard value after pregnancy. It will change with the change of pregnancy weeks. Taking early pregnancy as an example, that is, before 13 weeks of pregnancy, the change curve of β-hcg tends to be hyperbolic, that is, a trend of first increasing and then decreasing. Under normal circumstances, before 8 weeks of pregnancy, the β-hcg of pregnant women will double in value, reach the highest value at 8 weeks of pregnancy, and slowly drop to the upper medium level after 8 weeks of pregnancy, and remain in the upper medium level until the end of pregnancy.

In terms of actual β-hcg values, different weeks of pregnancy will have different normal value ranges. For example, at 3 weeks of pregnancy, the normal β-hcg value will be between 50-500IU/L. At 8 weeks of pregnancy, it will be around 200,000IU/L. From 9 to 13 weeks of pregnancy, the normal value of β-hcg will slowly drop to between 10,000 and 100,000IU/L. If the β-hcg of a pregnant woman drops rapidly at this time, it should be paid attention to, because it may be caused by delayed fetal language development and needs to be properly handled.

As mentioned above, β-hcg will change with the change of pregnancy weeks. The changes in different stages also directly reflect the health status of the fetus and the pregnant woman. Therefore, it is necessary to have a certain grasp of the changes in β-hcg values ​​during prenatal check-ups. At the same time, in order for pregnant women to go through the pregnancy healthily and smoothly, they should also do a good job of dietary care for pregnant women. Pregnant women should not eat raw or cold foods, cold foods, and other foods that are bad for the body. The nutritional supply of pregnant women during pregnancy should be ensured with a variety of nutrients and rich categories of foods. In this way, the health of pregnant women and fetuses can be guaranteed.
