Hcg levels 6800

[Lauren85]

Hi everyone,

I’m so confused. We got told we had non viable pregnancy last week. We are still being monitored by our fertility clinic. Got bloods today and the hcg levels are still rising. Got scan last week and seen a sac but nothing inside it.

Are we being silly and thinking we could still be in with a chance of having a baby in the sac? We get another scan on Friday so I’m really hoping they see something inside the sac??

Your definitely not being silly hun hopefully things have just took time to be picked up on the scan. Wishing you so much luck for friday 🤞🏻😘💗

I had this with my last pregnancy nothing in the sac couldn’t see the pregnancy hcg rising from 17500 to 23000 but I was 9w thought it was ectopic but eventually after a good search they found a tiny yolk sac but didn’t progress in the 2w I ended up having a Mva as my body wasn’t mc naturally. I sorry I’m guessing it could be similar?

I understand your agony. In my first ivf fet, I had same situation, only sac and nothing inside. But Hcg was super high 16000 for five weeks. After couple of scans doctor declared blighted ovum/ anembryonic pregnancy. I was suggested dnc, I did a secret Hcg it went to 35000. In short Hcg is just a parameter, wat we see on ultrasound is real. I then made up my mind. Basically for ivf patients since it’s all calculated accurately when we go for 5 week scan there should be yolk sac fetal pole and a heartbeat to call it a viable pregnancy

So sorry to hear this Lauren, I had the same thing a few months ago from my FET. Empty sac / blighted ovum, it’s so sad. My inbox is always open if you need xx

I’ve had that too last year. Hcg levels were high but nothing inside the sac at 7 weeks. Had a D&C in the end. It’s super sad, I feel for you guys. Good luck with the scan on Friday xxx

Update.. so had scan this morning and sac is growing but still empty 😔 got more bloods done to check levels. When will this end 😔

So sorry to read this Lauren. I had very similar in my first blighted ovum where the sac continued to grow for 4 weeks, my body didnt realise there was nothing in it. I really hope this isnt the case for you but the growth did start to slow and it got to a size where it was impossible to be a viable pregnancy and I finally had the answer. Sending you both hugs xx

Sorry to hear that it’s happened to you 😔 we are 7weeks along and still nothing. Fertility clinic still havnt gave us answers 😩

I first went in at 5w5 days and had to go back at 7 weeks and then back again at 9 weeks, it was at 9 weeks they finally admitted defeat and I had surgery a week afterwards. I am still so hoping this isnt your situation but you so deserve an answer, how harrowing for you xx
