Experiences with

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)

Obviously it contains Hcg so testing early won’t be reliable .. annoying 🤪 much love to all 💫

I went immediately to the er and my hcg was 22,300 and the intravaginal scan showed a gestation sac measuring 5 weeks 6 days but no fetal pole or heartbeat. The doc said it's too early for those to show and listed the pregnancy as viable.

. 😥 My BHCG is booked for tomorrow but to be fair even if it’s high it won’t give me peace of mind as the last time I got 1262 on 12dpt blood draw and this went up to 14409 a few days later and then the same night I got my hcg level back I began to bleed heavily.

Tested home 8dp5dt Tues BFN Tested home 10dp5dt Thurs vv faint line Blood test 11dp5dt Fri Tested home 12dp5dt Sat BFN - stopped meds Started bleeding last night Doctors called today to say HCG was 49 on Fri test 😰😰 Clinic said probably a chemical but I can’t stop thinking it’s my fault for stopping

I feel nauseous from the HCG from the sac. I have to repeat the scan in 1 week to confirm the pregnancy isn't viable. I know this is bad news, but I can't give up hope until I have to. Hoping for a miracle. Please can you share any similar stories - good and bad. Hope everyone is doing ok.

Had my hcg levels done, and i am cautiously happy... 20/09 - HCG 258,30 22/09 - HCG 569,90 I have my 1st scan booked for the 05th October..... Hopefully this time , it will stick. I have never made it to this stage in all my previous cycles.

hi ladies, It seems the 2WW anxiety was nothing considering what’s happening in my mind rind now😭 So had my second beta measured today: 10dp5dt 1901 12dp5dt 3756 They seem quite good numbers, but I can’t stop being worried as I have really painful cramps?! Could that mean anything bad? Also,

Was referred to epu the next day who found pretty much the same findings but were adamant it was 50/50 (IMO they’re not clued up on IVF nowhere near enough) the did hcg and progesterone bloods and asked me to come back for second scan in two weeks.

Can anyone provide reassurance things will be OK if any ladies have had or know of anyone who has had very low beta hcg results? It was 6.34 today @ 3 weeks. But that's very bad. 😔they will retest Friday, feeling sad, o\s.

Just curious, we transferred 2 embryos ivf and I really want twins. Tested today but received a faint line - positive though.. I’ve been reading on here the lines are darker with twins. How true is this? I’ve only started to feel symptoms today since returning from Testing so I’m guessing hormones kicking

HCG was 7 when done at the hospital, spotting and feverish 3 days later, period the following day.

Hi Ladies, Feeling desperate for some answers. Currently 4 weeks and 6 days pregnant. Tuesday (4 weeks 4 days) I had some very light 1 time spotting and started progesterone immediately. Took a clear blue week indicator test and said 2-3 weeks which would be the correct stage. I STUPIDLY just took another

I got a beta HCG level of 79 yesterday (at 14dp5dt), a very low number. I tested today with FMU e SMU and with SMU the line is visibly darker, I wonder why? Also, do you think there is a small progression from yesterday, if you compare the 14dp5dt test with the one I took this morning with SMU?

I now have a very very faint positive which can only be seen if you squint hard enough - jus for some context my bloods were 34 IU/L so I did expect this with such low initial HCG blood results. I suspect this will be another chemical for me.

I was instructed to have a blood hCG test on 14dp (this Saturday), but do you really need to after seeing BFN and bleeding at this point?

My clinic did not order hcg tests after the second, so I’ve been on the wait for more than a week now… driving myself nuts since morning and I assume it’s going to only get worse as I await the scan…. Any helpful signs/tips to keep me sane? PS.

This of course hasn’t doubled every 48/72 hours since 02/10 and could be slow rising or perhaps my hcg rocketed during week and has declined since bleed. I have to have more bloods Wednesday.

:( I feel very depressed right now, I almost would have preferred a lower HCG level to be able to quit all meds and move on… By the way, today the stupid Easy@Home was darker with second morning urine, so I think they are totally unreliable.

Clinic have told me that my HCG level is only 4 😔 they said I need to have another blood test on Saturday to see which direction the level is moving in. Has anyone had a similar experience? Clinic said it could be chemical, ectopic or just slow. I’ve got no idea what to think.

I’m just worried my HCG levels are low because I’m not seeing a solid line and not much increased from yesterday
