Which test is better in one month of pregnancy, UPT or HCG? Which test gives a good result in 4 to 5 weeks of pregnancy?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
At 4 to 5 weeks of pregnancy, both UPT (urine test) and Beta HCG (blood test) can detect pregnancy. Beta HCG is more sensitive and accurate, especially if periods are irregular or UPT shows faint lines. UPT is useful for quick home checks, but blood test confirms and tracks pregnancy progress. At 5 weeks, HCG greater than 1,000 mIU/mL is typical.

I missed my date before last month it was on 14th of September and I took a urine test at home for pregnancy. There was a weak pink line but on 28th September I had brown spotting and my period started on 30th September. Again my date was on 29th of October but I noticed a very small brown spotting on 21st of October. Then I immediately visited a gynecologist on 23rd October and she put me on the following drugs fol xt, ecosprin 75, and duphaston 10 mg and asked me to come two days after I missed my period. I visited her again on 1st of November because I missed my date on 29th of October. She wrote a urine pregnancy test in which I got a positive report and I told her about my lower abdomen and lower back pain on even slightest strain or standing. Then she put me on the following drugs fol xt, ecosprin 75, duphaston 10 mg, susten sr 300 mg and also gave a progesterone 200 mg injection. She told me to use the above medicines for 20 days and to be completely in rest for these 20 days. Now what is my exact situation?
