Overview

Beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG) is the beta subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a hormone primarily produced by the placenta during pregnancy. Its presence and levels in blood or urine are crucial for diagnosing and monitoring various pregnancy-related conditions, such as ectopic pregnancy, molar pregnancy, and fetal growth restriction. It also serves as a tumor marker for certain cancers, including testicular cancer and gestational trophoblastic disease.
