Hey girls. I posted this in the teen pregnancy thread too but oh well. Does anyone happen to know if this test is a quantatative test or a qualitative one?

What this test does is it gives the precise amount of hcg that you have in your body. Then it will give you a number then you will look at the number on the side and it will tell them around about how many weeks you are and then they confirm that with an ultrosound to make sure everything measures up. Also I believe they call it a quantatative. If that is spelled right I hope. Good luck I hope I answeed your question for you

I had the test done yesterday afternoon and the tech. Doing it said at the earliest, i'd get the results this afternoon. But I haven't heard from anyone so i'm assuming it might take a couple of days. The doctor's office is the one that calls with the results, right?
