  3. HCG detection time

  Generally, HCG will appear in the urine a few days after pregnancy. However, due to the small amount in the initial stage, it is not easy to detect, and it will be gradually obvious until 10-14 days later. Blood tests are more accurate than urinals, and a woman's blood level of HCG increases from day 9-11 after conception and doubles every two days thereafter. In the first 8 weeks of gestation the growth is rapid to maintain the pregnancy. After about 8 weeks of gestation, HCG gradually declines until it reaches a relatively stable level at about 20 weeks.
