Pregnancy Blood Test
Many women start by using home pregnancy tests, which detect hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) in urine. While useful, these tests can sometimes give uncertain results—especially early in your pregnancy. Our at-home pregnancy blood test provides greater accuracy by detecting even the smallest hCG levels through lab analysis.
What Is a Pregnancy Blood Test?
A pregnancy blood test checks for the presence of hCG in your bloodstream. There are two types:
Qualitative hCG test – detects if hCG is present (yes or no result)
Quantitative hCG test – measures the exact amount of hCG, often used in fertility treatments
Our mobile service uses qualitative hCG testing, offering high accuracy just 6–8 days after conception.
Why Choose a Blood Test Over a Urine Test?
While urine tests are widely available, blood tests are more sensitive and better for early confirmation. A positive result from a blood test is considered over 99% reliable.
It’s a good idea to take this test if:
You’ve had fertility treatments or a history of miscarriage
You want a more accurate result than home kits
You’re testing days after conception and want to confirm early

How Accurate Are Blood Tests for Pregnancy?
While no test is perfect, blood pregnancy tests are extremely accurate. They are generally considered to be 99% or greater in confirming pregnancy. However, testing after menopause or while taking hormone supplements can yield a false-positive test result. Likewise, testing too soon after conception can cause a false-negative result.
Preparing for the Test
You typically will not need to fast or make any other special preparations. You should inform your health care provider and phlebotomist of any medical conditions or medications you currently take. The test only requires a few minutes, and you can return to your normal activities without any special precautions.
