Whether menstruation is on time can to some extent prove a woman's health, and it can be said without exaggeration that menstruation is a barometer for women. Although their physical constitution is different, each woman's menstrual cycle is also different. However, if a woman's menstrual cycle does not come in a certain month, it is also possible that she is pregnant. So, can HCG be checked if menstruation is delayed by 6 days?
If a woman's menstrual cycle has been delayed by 6 days, it is possible to check for pregnancy by checking HCG. Of course, this is also one of the fastest and most accurate methods for pregnancy testing. According to the examination results, the HCG value of a normal person is generally less than 3.1. If the examination value exceeds 5, the possibility of pregnancy can be considered. If the examination value exceeds 10, it can basically be concluded that pregnancy has occurred.
In general, if a woman's menstrual cycle is delayed within 7 days after sexual intercourse, there is still a high possibility of pregnancy. In addition to blood tests, one can also choose methods such as morning urine tests and early pregnancy test strips for judgment. Generally, HCG testing can be conducted on the same day.
If a blood HCG test is required, it is necessary to go to the hospital on an empty stomach in the morning for blood sampling. During this period, it is important to pay attention to rest, avoid smoking and drinking alcohol, avoid eating spicy and cold foods, and do not rest too late. If the test result is not pregnancy, it is necessary to observe the menstrual cycle, color, and amount to prepare for adjustment.
