What Is It? Keloids are raised overgrowths of scar tissue that occur at the site of a skin injury. They occur where trauma, surgery, blisters, vaccinations, acne or body piercing have injured the skin. Less commonly, keloids may form in places where the skin has not had a visible injury. Keloids differ from normal mature scars in composition and size.
A: The earliest you can get a positive result on the most sensitive pregnancy tests is seven days after ovulation. Implantation needs to occur before hCG is produced, and that generally happens between 6-12 days post ovulation, usually by 10 days after.
HCG is the pregnancy hormone. It is the hormone that is produced by the placenta after the embryo implants in early pregnancy. HCG is also the hormone that is detected by at home pregnancy tests in early pregnancy. For the first few weeks of pregnancy, HCG levels double every two or three days until finally leveling off. Later in the pregnancy, after the HCG levels begin to level out, they will slowly begin to drop again. Many women are concerned about their HCG levels, and what can happen to them if they begin to drop.
