Its a good idea, but I wonder how accurate your results will be. HCG tests (done via blood samples) are notoriously bad as a predictor for how many eggs are actually in the ovaries. Its a very broad indicator yes, but nothing more than that.

This is really quite different from say testing a mens sperm where you can accurately count the exact number to the nearest million.

Have you compared your accuracy with an HCG test? What is the delta between your home test results and an HCG test?

Hi! Are you referring to human chorionic gonadotropin (hcg)? If so, HCG is used in pregnancy tests not an ovarian reserve test. We do not test for HCG.
