HCG Calculator

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) Calculator can predict the HCG value in the next 2 weeks based on your last tested HCG value.

The unit of HCG: 1mIU/mL = 1U/L

What is the "HCG"?

HCG stands for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin. It is a hormone produced by the placenta during pregnancy. HCG plays a crucial role in the development of the embryo and fetus, particularly during the early stages of pregnancy.

One of the primary functions of HCG is to support the production of other important hormones, such as progesterone, which helps maintain the uterine lining and support the developing fetus. HCG levels can be detected through urine and blood tests and are commonly used in pregnancy testing kits to confirm pregnancy.

The examination of HCG is of significant importance for the early diagnosis of pregnancy, as well as for the diagnosis, differentiation, and course observation of pregnancy-related diseases, trophoblastic tumors, and other conditions.

HCG doubling calculation refers to the rapid increase in HCG levels during the initial 1 to 7 weeks of pregnancy, doubling approximately every (2.2±0.5) days. When HCG levels exceed 10,000, the rate of increase slows down, and doubling calculation is typically no longer suitable as a reference.

The commonly mentioned "HCG rising >66% every 48 hours" is suggested as the minimum growth rate; a rate lower than this suggests a high possibility of ectopic pregnancy or poor embryonic development.

In addition to its role in pregnancy, HCG is also sometimes used medically for various purposes, such as fertility treatments and in certain weight loss programs.
