The present invention relates to methods for analyzing concentrations of hyperglycosylated hCG (H-hCG) and hCG equally in blood, serum or urine samples, preferably urine samples, from female patients to determine with an unexpectedly high measure of accuracy whether or not the patient is pregnant and to appropriately monitor hCG levels during the course of pregnancy. In preferred aspects of the present invention, the method utilizes an assay system which can be used in the home or at a point of care facility in a convenient manner with serum or urine samples, in a highly accurate predictive manner.
