If you go for a blood test to see if you're pregnant how long do the results typically take?

Not to long a couple of days. It depends on the lab you have it done at

The time to get the results will depend on the lab and also the kind of blood test.

There are two different pregnancy blood tests to measure human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG).

Qualitative Pregnancy Blood Test - This can only give a "yes" or "no" answer as to whether HCG is present. This test gives results similar to what urine based home pregnancy test kits do.

Quantitative Pregnancy Blood Test – This test can actually measure the exact amount of hCG in the woman's blood. This measurement can help give a rough estimate of the age of the fetus. It can also help determine if the pregnancy is progressing normally. The qualitative test, described above, is not able to provide this extra information.

It is important to remember that if the test is done too early, there will be a negative, as t takes at least 7 days after fertilization for the test to become positive. In most cases, by the time a woman has missed her period, the test will be positive if she is pregnant.

So if you are asking this, in relation to your other post about the woman who is claiming to be pregnant by your boyfriend - get him to ask for the verifiable copy of that woman's lab results from the clinic.

Also, when you are asking questions in relation to the original post, please keep all of that in your original thread. It gets confusing.

Thank you.
