Human hCG value

What is human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)? When it comes to human chorionic gonadotropin, I believe many friends are very confused. Although we rarely hear of this term, for pregnant women, this name is not unfamiliar. Today we will take you to learn in detail what human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is and introduce to you the significance of human chorionic gonadotropin.

Human chorionic gonadotropin is a glycoprotein excreted by the human placenta. This type of glycoprotein is a very important hormone for the body, especially for test tube embryos in the early stages of pregnancy. Human chorionic gonadotropin plays a very important role. It can promote the conversion of estrogen and progesterone levels, and has the effect of stabilizing and nourishing the fetus. Once pregnant, human chorionic gonadotropin will appear in the woman's body. If the human chorionic gonadotropin test is found to be slightly low or not detected, it means that the pregnancy has failed.

Human chorionic gonadotropin is commonly known as hCG. For the early diagnosis of pregnancy, the hCG value is of great significance. At the same time, the hCG value test is also closely related to some pregnancy-related diseases, somatic tumors and other diseases. In addition to being used to identify early pregnancy, the hCG value can also detect abnormalities in pregnancy and whether there are abnormalities in placental function. For example, if a patient with ectopic pregnancy undergoes hCG testing, there will be a 60% chance of being positive. And if the patient has abnormal uterine bleeding, an hcg test may show a positive result three days later.

Today we have introduced to you what kind of hormone human chorionic gonadotropin is, and also introduced to you the practical significance of human chorionic gonadotropin in clinical medicine. Generally speaking, human chorionic gonadotropin is the main test method used to diagnose early pregnancy. In addition, the hCG level in the urine of patients with hydatidiform mole, testicular teratoma, etc. will also be elevated to a certain extent, so ACG can also be used to test these diseases.
