Advanced Pregnancy test (Beta HCG)

MUMS Beta HCG Test costs £50

Beta HCG Test within an HCA appointment £80

Beta HCG Test within an GP consultation £160

This test looks at the HCG volume in the blood – HCG is secreted as the egg is implanted.

This test is very sensitive and can detect even very low levels of HCG, possibly giving a positive result earlier than an over-the-counter urine test.

HCG levels less than 5 are considered negative.

HCG levels about 25 are considered as positive.

HCG levels between 6-24 indicate a repeat test is necessary.

This test is for women who would like an early test to check if they are pregnant. A negative result does not necessarily mean that you are not pregnant as HCG may not be detectable even with this sensitive test, especially if you tested early or ovulated late. A repeat test is recommended if your period has not arrived after another 3 days.

You can have this test with our HCAs in a £30.00 Phlebotomy Appointment.

Results are available within 24 hours.

We send the test to our partner laboratory in London.

This test is important if there is a risk of ectopic pregnancy.

We often suggest this test where the early pregnancy scan does not detect a pregnancy because it is too early to scan.
