NCT ID NCT06802263
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This pilot study is testing whether an at-home urine test can accurately measure hCG levels in women with a pregnancy of unknown location (PUL). Participants will collect their first morning urine at home and compare it to a blood test done at a lab. If the home test proves accurate, it could allow women to monitor their condition from home, reducing the need for frequent clinic visits.
