The human chorionic gonadotropin also referred to as HCG is a hormone that plays a significant role in the initial stages of pregnancy. The hormone is created by the placenta when a woman is pregnant. The production of the hormone begins in the first week of pregnancy itself and is detected in the blood or urine. The beta-human chorionic gonadotropin test or Beta HCG test is helpful to diagnose pregnancy by determining the presence of the hormone in your blood.
