Depends on individual. I tested my urine at home with the pregnancy test kit and went to GP after where she took my blood test to confirm my pregnancy. Based on the hCG values, can somewhat know how far along are you although it’s not as accurate as an ultrasound scan.

Yea, usually the doctor will do a blood test to confirm your pregnancy. But if you’re scared of needles and you confirm with urine test, maybe can ask the gynae if they can do an ultrasound instead? But ultrasound examination will cost more than a hcg blood test
