Do I need to fast for blood test in early pregnancy test?

There is no need to fast when doing a blood test in early pregnancy. Blood pregnancy test is relatively more accurate and sensitive than urine test, with a very low error rate and an accuracy rate of over 99%. Through blood tests, not only can we find out whether a woman is pregnant, but also we can judge the development of the fetus and the physical condition of the pregnant woman to a certain extent.

Fasting is not required for pregnancy testing.

In general, you don't need to make much special preparation for an HCG blood test. Because the blood pregnancy test is to check the HCG content in the venous blood, whether you have eaten or drunk water before the test will not have much impact on the test results. However, in order to ensure the accuracy of the test results, women still need to pay attention to some details:

1. Before taking a blood test, you should pay attention to adjusting your mood, keeping yourself in a relaxed and good mood, and psychologically avoid tension and anxiety.

2. Avoid strenuous exercise before the examination and just maintain a normal amount of activity.

3. Before taking the HCG blood test, you should maintain a reasonable schedule and avoid staying up late, so as to avoid inaccurate test results.

Best time to do a blood test for pregnancy

Both blood test and urine test are used to detect the content of HCG hormone, but one is a blood test and the other is a urine test. Usually, the syncytial trophoblast will secrete HCG hormone 6 days after a woman becomes pregnant, which will cause the HCG hormone levels in the blood and urine to begin to increase.

Best time for urine test

If the menstruation is regular, to determine whether a woman is pregnant, it is recommended to have a urine test more than 7 days after the menstruation is obviously amenorrhea. Usually, a urine test can accurately detect pregnancy one week after the menstruation is amenorrhea.

Best time for blood test

The time for HCG blood test is earlier than that for urine test. Generally speaking, the blood test can be performed one to two days after a woman's menopause. The best time to do a blood test is 8-10 days after sexual intercourse. Because the HCG content in the blood is higher at this time, the test is more accurate.
