A beta hcg value of 1.2 ng/ml is equal to exactly 18 mIU. The formula for conversion is 1 ng/ml = 15 mIU. Most hospital blood tests actually test in ng/ml, which confuses some people since the values seem so low prior to conversion. The ELISA radioimmunoassay test (the most popular US/UK hospital hcg test series) gives results in ng/ml only. Most doctors and nurses do not convert the values for their patients unless specifically asked to..

What does the medical abbreviation hCG level mean?
It doesn't tell you how far along you are, just that you are pregnant. HCG is the hormone women produce when they are pregnant. Here are more opinions and answers from other FAQ Farmers: * Your HCG levels double every 2-3 days during your pregnancy. * HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) is a hormone produced ONLY during pregnancy. Pregnancy tests screen for this by a urine test, it's there or it's not. * Contrary to Jamie's response, your HCG level can indicate roughly how far along you are in your pregnancy. Ask your doctor. * HCG is not only produced when pregnant. Males can have HCG levels high enough to be detected by a home pregnancy test and women can also, when they are NOT pregnant. The HCG can be produced by certain tumors. In pregnancy HCG keeps the corpus luteum around to produce estrogen and progesterone, which are necessary in pregnancy. Also, HCG levels differ from each pregnant woman and the doubling is the most important factor. A high HCG level can also indicate a multi gestation pregnancy
What is a Haematology lab test HCG for?
HCG - Human chorionic gonadotropin Produced during pregnancy and made by the developing embryo soon after conception and later by the syncytiotrophoblast (part of theplacenta) HCG is also released by tumours and is an important part of detecting their presence. Levels of hCG may be measured in theblood or urine. Most commonly, this is done as a pregnancy test, intended to indicate the presence or absence of an implanted embryo. Testing for hCG may also be done when diagnosing or monitoring germ cell tumors and gestational trophoblastic disease. Most tests employ a monoclonal antibody, which is specific to the β-subunit of hCG (β-hCG). This procedure is employed to ensure that tests do not makefalse positives by confusing hCG with LH and FSH. (The latter two are always present at varying levels in the body, whereas the presence of hCG almost always indicates pregnancy.)
Why is the blood value low in the blood pregnancy test?
Hi, In the Quantiative Beta HCG blood pregnancy test, the value of HCG that the tests looks for before you get a positive, is low because it determines and confirms pregnancy very early.

In the case of risk of miscarriage, the doctors usually repeat the blood test within 48 hours to see if HCG levels have decreased or increased.

Can you be pregnant with 3 positive urine tests but hormone blood level of 3?
i don't think so but maybe. HCG is the hormone human chronic gonadotropin, which is produced by placental cells during pregnancy. Yes, you can be pregnant with an HCG level at 3. Typically, below 5 is negative and above 25 is positive. It can be this low in the first week or two of pregnancy. Some women have lower HCG levels during pregnancy than are typical. Ectopic pregnancies can result in low HCG levels. It can also indicate a problem with the pregnancy. It is best to have at least two HCG readings a couple days apart, if you are relying on HCG levels. If you think you should be 5 or more weeks pregnant but have low HCG levels, it would be a good idea to double-check with an ultrasound.
