Sensitive post but concerned about hcg levels

[Sloop14]

hi all!

After my third FET, I have finally gotten a positive test. I went in for my beta at 8dp5dt and my level was only a 34. The nurse didn't seem concerned but just wanted to make me aware. Has anybody started that low after a FET and gone on to have success? Thanks!

8dp5dt is very early, 34 sounds fine to me! Wishing you lots of luck xx

Hi Sloop14,

Just to echo what LCharlton said, 8 days is super early for a beta so try not to worry. Are they going to test it again later for you?x

Yes, they will test again on wednesday

Congratulations on your first positive result. Is you clinic going to do another repeat test? hCG should double every 48-72hrs so although you have this first number you would hope that things would rise accordingly. Best of luck.xx

Hey hun, my beta at 10dp5dt was 270, so in saying that if yours doubles in 48 hours it would be 68...my clinic said at 10dp5dt for a frozen transfer they want to see anything over 50 (for fresh they like to see higher as usually a fresh implants quicker than a frozen) hcg levels are different for every pregnancy so hopefully they retest you in 48 hours and that number doubles, then I wouldnt worry 😊 congrats and very best of luck to you xx
