PREGNANCY CONFIRMATION QUESTION #1: HOW SOON CAN A BLOOD TEST CONFIRM PREGNANCY?

The answer to the question, “How soon can a blood test confirm pregnancy?” is 7 to 12 days after you conceive. However, according to American Pregnancy, “It is possible that these tests can be done too early and show a false negative result. If you receive a negative result and still do not start your period, another test should be done.” If you are eager to find out whether you are pregnant or not, a blood test can confirm pregnancy sooner than other methods. You can easily book online for an appointment at our practice!

PREGNANCY CONFIRMATION QUESTION #2: WHAT ARE OTHER WAYS OF CONFIRMING PREGNANCY?

A missed menstrual cycle is one important sign that you may be pregnant. Especially if your periods are regular, a missed period is an indicator of possible pregnancy, and you may want to seek further confirmation with either a urine test or blood test. Urine and blood tests both test for the same pregnancy hormone: human chorionic gonadotropin, or hCG. Your body begins to produce this hormone as soon as a fertilized egg implants in the uterus, and rapidly produces more of this hormone each day of your pregnancy.
