I am currently 5weeks and 4 days but with no symptoms at all, on the 5/11 i had my hcg and progesterone level done and the hcg was at a super high as I got told and progesterone was low, but due to no symptoms I have done a few more test and I keep getting the 2nd line very faint should I be worried.

someone able to help because its driving me insane.

I'm not sure I'd you have heard of the hook effect. In simple terms its when the hCG gets so high that the pregnancy sticks get a bit confused and they dont register properly. This could defo be a reason but of course unless you get an actually beta hCG done you wont know for sure. Fingers crossed.xx

I had hcg done on Thursday and they said it 12001 which is super high n they didn't say anything else, I have to have progesterone levels done again tomorrow, might push for another hcg x

That's really decent and there is no way it could drop so quickly to give a real faint line so I think it's your hCG. If you can get you're levels rechecked I'm sure it would help settle your nerves. I would however step away form the pregnancy tests, I know it's hard but it sound like its causing more stress than good.xx

Hi raxi, I've been given this test by my clinic and have just read the instructions the control line is the line closest to the dip end and the results line is the other one. Looking at your test the results line is much stronger than the control line 😊
