Low hcg

[Lolepops]

Hi just wanted some advice as I’m not doing great. Had a frozen transfer on 28th March and today was my test date. I’ve been getting faint positives on frer till Wednesday when it started to fade. I’m still getting very faint positives and I’ve had my bloods done today which is coming back at 10.8 . They class it as a positive and have told me to continue medication and repeat the bloods Sunday. I know it’s not worked and it feels like it prolonging the agony as I’m already feeling horrendous. Anyone had this low ? I just want to move on but the clinic say the official line is to retest . Please anyone has this ? Please be honest as I know it’s negative . Just don’t want to spend another two days feeling in limbo Thank you x

Thank you for your kind words. In my heart of hearts I know it’s failed - just an agonising wait till Sunday for them to confirm this.

How are you doing ?

I would feel the same as you that it’s a chemical but the clinic have to give it every effort just in case it’s not and those double bloods are the only way to tell for sure 💜 either way you will know you have done everything possible, sending hope and hugs xx

Thank you. Yeah my line has pretty much disappeared. Seems crueler to have a positive that’s taken away. I’m hoping they can just tell me to stop the meds so I can start my period and feel mentally better. Thank you for taking the time to reply xx

You are right, I definitely found it crueler than a straight negative 😥 even when my tests went negative the clinic did the bloods to double check (although for me they were pointless) but it did give me some closure to move on. I’m thinking of you lovely I know the stress/limbo is horrible! Xx

I'm sorry, it's really cruel. My GP did mine on my last one and it was 21 - she said anything over 5 is technically pregnant but they would have expected higher at the stage I was at so they didn't have much hope. They asked me to keep taking the meds in case it started to double or until it got to <5. They also wanted to keep testing to rule out ectopic. It took a long time on that one to drop compared to the first one I had (and even though that first one was higher) and the limbo was pretty horrible. I think just keep doing what your clinic advises as you never know and sometimes extra progesterone etc can make the difference. But if it does go, just take as much time as you need and know that it doesn't mean it won't work - my clinics kept telling me to have gotten implantation and some development was really positive, but it's not much comfort at the time.
