Question
The hormone that confirms pregnancy is:
The correct answer is
HCG
The correct answer is HCG.
hCG is secreted by the syncytiotrophoblast soon after implantation and can be detected in serum about 8–10 days after conception; urine and serum pregnancy tests detect it.
LH and FSH are pituitary gonadotrophins and TSH stimulates the thyroid; none of them confirms pregnancy.
Short trick: hCG = human Chorionic gonadotrophin—only the placenta makes it.
