Q regarding blood pregnancy tests...?

Question

Hi goin through tests at the moment as been ttc for nearly 11 months. had a hormone test and that is fine, then had 21 day ovulation test and not enough hormone was seen so got to have another one. would this blood test picked up if i was pregnant - do they test for the same hormone/chemical? due on yesterday and still no period...so wondering if the reason they didnt pick up enough hormone in my 21 day blood test was because i am pregnant?? goin for pelvis scan today at hospital as part of my tests, would they tell from this if i was so early on pregnant?? thanks

Answer 1

A transvaginal ultrasound scan might pick up an embryo at 4 weeks - it happened to me (all they can see is a dot).

Don't know about the blood test - I would imagine they will only test for the hormone that they're looking for.

Do an hpt first so you don't get your hopes up too much when you're in the waiting room if you're not pregnant.

Good luck.
