Examples of hcg in a Sentence

  1. Mary Jane Minkin:

    Besides hCG, the body doesn’t secrete anything in the urine that would give you a clue that you’re having a baby, so if the test doesn’t measure hCG specifically, and no natural method does, it’s not going to prove anything.

  2. Mary Jane Minkin:

    But certain fertility treatments contain hCG, which can lead to a false positive, it can be really tough, especially when you really want to get pregnant, to find out that you’re actually not.

  3. Mary Jane Minkin:

    There are absolutely no sex hormones in urine, hCG increases the same amount for boys and girls, so with a urine test, there is no way to know the sex of the baby.
