It could mean that the pregnancy is only just beginning. A second beta test will tell whether the human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) levels double within 48-72 hours. It also could mean that there is a pregnancy, but it is not viable. If the HCG levels lower after two days, without doubling, then the pregnancy will most likely miscarry. This is often called a 'Chemical Pregnancy'. The period will begin within a few days, and doctors will request that the beta levels continue to be checked until they return to zero.

If you do not have a period because of being on birth control previously can your hcg be low because of not having a period?
Your body produces HCG only during pregnancy.
My HCG levels are low my Dr. told me to wait until my next period before TTC again after miscarriage. Can you get pregnant with low HCG levels or is ovulation halted until HCG levels are less than 5?
You can get pregnant agin. It is best to wait until your hcg is 0 before trying to get pregnant again.
Can having low hcg levels or no hcg levels while pregnant be hereditary?
Yes, having low hcg levels or no hcg levels while pregnant can be hereditary
Can pregnancy test will positive 2 days before your last period?
A pregnancy test can test positive 2 days before you are supposed to have your period however, you will have a low amount of HCG (the hormone the test identifies) at that time and you still may be pregnant even with a negative est. It is best to wait a few days after your missed period and then test with the first urination of the day.
What is the normal HCG level at 6 weeks?
HCG levels are detectable at low levels as early as 7-9 days after ovulation. During the first 3-4 weeks after fertilization the HCG level doubles every two days. By the fist missed period the level will be 50-250 mIU/ml. HCG will peak at approx. 60-70 days after fertilization at 80,000-150,000 mIU/ml, then gradually decrease during the remainder of the pregnancy.
The first day of your last period was oct 16th 2009 when would a home pregnancy test confirm pregnancy?
Depending on the length of your cycle (today is CD28 for you) you may get a positive result now. If your cycles are normally longer, like 30+ days, then you may have to wait another day or two to get a positive result if you are indeed pregnant.Most sensitive pregnancy tests you buy in the stores can detect as early as 5 days before your missed period. Not every woman will produce enough hCG before the period is missed though, so a negative result may be produced even though you are pregnant.Normal hCG levels for 3 weeks from LMP (last menstrual period) are between 5 - 50 mIU/ml, and for 4 weeks from LMP, between 5 - 426. So you can have low hCG, too low to be detected by a test yet, and still be pregnant with a healthy growing baby.
Will your HCG level be to low to take a pregnancy test if your period is one week late?
Can be different for everybody, but it might help if you take the test first thing in the morning when your HCG levels are the most concentrated.
Can you take a pregnancy test a week before your missed period?
I have bit it didnt show up till I took 1 the first day of my missed period but every one is different. And on my first day of missed period I could barely see the lines cause my hormone levels were still low
What are possible causes of false positive reactions with presumptive screening for tests of blood?
There are no reasons for hcg in your blood apart from pregnancy but there is a rare cancer that can make hcg in your blood but very low levels we had a 8 yr old patients with hcg in her bloods. Other answer is pregnancy
Is it possible to be pregnant but have such a low HCG count that your body still has AF?
HCG doubles about every other day, so if you get your period, chances are you are not pregnant. Not True. Many women can testify upon having a PERIOD while being pregnant. Some can testify upon having a PERIOD all 9 months of her pregnancy.
How many days do you take hcg in a row before taking a break?
HCG Dosing: min 23 days, max 40 days (unless extreme hunger sets in earlier) This HCG period is comprised of: 2 Loading Days 21-38 VLCD Very Low Calorie Diet Days This is then followed by a nonHCG period of: 3Days/72 hours VLCD Very Low Calorie Diet Days, without HCG So, when the HCG is taken for max 40 days (to prevent immunity from setting in), you're on 2 binge days plus 41 VLCD days.
Can you get an accurate pregnancy test before 5 days after your missed period?
You can do up to 6 with the tests that promos accuracy up to 6 days. Basically how they work is immediately upon implantation the embryo starts producing HcG. It gets higher and higher each day. The sensitive of the test determines how low the results can be and get you a positive. Most standard tests don't detect low levels because there are other factors, especially in older women, than can cause low levels of a different for of HcG but that would still yield a positive result.
