Do you need to fast to check progesterone and hcg?

Fasting is not required to check progesterone and HCG.
After a woman becomes pregnant, when the pregnant egg is deposited, the trophoblast cells will secrete HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) will be elevated, and the blood HCG value can be measured 10-14 days after intercourse during ovulation, and it will be above the normal range. Therefore, if you want to accurately diagnose whether you are pregnant or not, you need to go to the hospital in time to take blood tests for HCG and progesterone.
HCG is produced by gestational trophoblasts and progesterone is produced by the corpus luteum of the ovary. These two hormones generally increase steadily and gradually during normal pregnancy, and human chorionic gonadotropin and progesterone are not affected by diet, so there is no need for a fasting test.
After the diagnosis of pregnancy, you need to actively supplement folic acid, under the guidance of the doctor to do a good job in the pregnancy of the examination, three months no sexual intercourse, and so on.
