Thanks for posting Q on HCM
A good quality urine preg test is fairly accurate to predict pregnancy.
Quantitative B Hcg assays will give rough idea re no of weeks into pregnancy & in a normal viable pregnancy levels should normally double every 2-3 days ( 85% of cases)
this also means in upto 15% of normal pregnancies the doubling of levels is slower than normal.
this applies normally to preg upto 6-7 weeks after which rise in BHCG levels slows down & serial Ultrasound examination is a better predictor.
I find this answer helpful
