According to the Danish medical handbook, the pregnancy hormone hCG can be measured in the blood 6-8 days after conception - often before a home urine test turns positive. If your result is positive, we recommend that you contact your own GP, who will take you through the standard pregnancy care.
If you have pain on one side of your lower abdomen, vaginal bleeding or feel dizzy, contact a doctor straight away - not a blood test.

The most important test for men is a semen analysis. We do not offer it - it is arranged through your own GP or a fertility clinic. Hormone tests are sometimes part of the doctor's investigation, but a blood test says nothing about sperm quality.
If your partner wants to know his general health, a health check or a hormone package with testosterone, LH, FSH and prolactin can give a snapshot. A healthy weight, exercise and avoiding tobacco and more than 10 units of alcohol a week are good advice for you both. Read about men's health →
