More sensitive than home kits. Our laboratory urine test or quantitative blood hCG confirms pregnancy as early as 10–12 days after conception — and the blood hCG provides a number that helps date the pregnancy and monitor its progress. Same-day results across Lagos.
A urine hCG confirms pregnancy — quickly and inexpensively. A quantitative blood hCG provides a number that can date the pregnancy, detect ectopic implantation, and be serially monitored. Lagos patients can choose whichever fits their clinical situation.
Our laboratory urine hCG test is more sensitive than most Lagos pharmacy home kits — detecting hCG from 20–25 IU/L versus the 50 IU/L sensitivity of many home tests. An early morning urine sample gives the most concentrated result, but any sample is acceptable. Result available within 30 minutes.
A blood test that measures the exact hCG level in IU/L. A rising hCG doubling every 48–72 hours indicates a healthy intrauterine pregnancy; a slowly rising or falling level suggests ectopic pregnancy or miscarriage. Essential for Lagos IVF clinics and high-risk obstetric monitoring.
After confirming pregnancy, Lagos antenatal guidelines recommend a full booking panel: blood group and Rh typing, FBC (anaemia screen), HBsAg, VDRL, blood sugar, urinalysis, and HIV. We offer these as a bundled antenatal panel — all from a single Lagos morning visit.
Neither urine nor blood pregnancy tests require fasting. Lagos patients can walk in at any time during our operating hours — Monday to Saturday, 9 AM to 5 PM — without a prior appointment. For the best urine hCG sensitivity, first-morning urine is ideal but not mandatory.
Please tell us the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP) before we collect your sample. This context allows us to interpret a quantitative blood hCG correctly — a "low" hCG is only meaningful if we know how far along the pregnancy should be.
If we are monitoring an early pregnancy — after IVF, suspected ectopic, or after a recent miscarriage — serial hCG measurements are needed 48 hours apart. We retain your previous hCG result and compare automatically, making Lagos serial monitoring straightforward.
Our laboratory hCG tests detect lower concentrations than most Lagos pharmacy kits — allowing confirmation up to 2–3 days earlier in cycle, reducing Lagos patient anxiety around ambiguous early home tests.
Our pregnancy confirmation is printed on official headed laboratory paper — accepted at Lagos Island General Hospital, Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH), and all Lagos private maternity clinics.
Pregnancy testing is a private matter. Lagos patients collect urine or give blood samples in a dignified, private environment — not at an open reception desk. Results are shared only with you.
