Depending on the hospital, the time it takes to get the results of a blood HCG test may vary. For most hospitals, the test may be done in the morning and the results may be available in the afternoon, while a few hospitals may need to take the results on the second day. Under normal circumstances, HCG can be measured in maternal serum about 10 days after fertilization, which is the most sensitive method to diagnose early pregnancy. The time to get the result of the HCG blood test depends on the testing time of the hospital laboratory. Generally, during normal business hours, the blood will be drawn in the morning and the test results will be available in the afternoon. If the hospital can do an emergency test, the results will be available in 1-3 hours using the ELISA method. Some hospitals may choose to draw blood in the evening, and the results will not be available until the afternoon of the second day. In addition, a few hospitals may not perform this test and the blood may need to be sent to an outside hospital for testing, and the time it takes for the results to be available will depend on the distance and the time it takes to send the blood. Therefore, you should consult your hospital for the exact time of getting the result of the HCG test. If pregnant women use early pregnancy test paper to test themselves, the result can be obtained in 1-15 minutes, which is convenient and quick, but not as sensitive as blood HCG.
