I had positive blood test but the hcg levels won't go up the first one was done when I was one week and it was 38 and the second one was done at two weeks and it was 7
What if the pregnancy hasn't been diagnosed as a tubal pregnancy, but hcg start out low n double or sky rocket out of nowhere.
no, as long as it is increasing in numbers, you should be fine... According to the American Pregnancy Association, hCG levels taper off after 10-11 weeks of pregnancy.
HCG IS not related to dietary intake. Certain fertility drugs could cause hcg levels to rise. HCG will not ever be detected if you are not pregnant. HCG is a hormone produced by pregnancy and has nothing to do with anything you eat. HCG can be produced if you have some cancers or ovarian cysts.
HCG levels only rise during pregnancy or if your taking medication that contains HCG. If your levels went down and then up again, this could be for any number of reasons. A strong possibility is you had a miscarriage and conceived again right after, the baby was distressed and HCG levels lowered then went up again or you was carrying twins and miscarried one and the levels went up again because of the remaining baby. You need to see your doctor to find out for definite.
Probably not that you would notice as the retained twin would soon make up the difference.
Yes, Your HCG level should never drop ---it should double and get higher - if it drops - that's a sign something is wrong and most lyikey end up in a misscarraige ----the reason i know this---its cause it has happen to me and that's what my doc told me.
Decreasing hcg numbers during pregnancy is never a good sign and is usually an indication of a miscarriage. There are rare instances that hcg levels can decrease and then go back up if, for example, you were carrying twins and you only miscarried one. Around the second trimester, however, hcg levels can plateau and show a decrease as you get closer to delivery date.
Health care providers usually will continue to test hCG levels after a pregnancy loss to ensure they return back to <5.0. If your miscarriage was very early in the pregnancy and you continue to show an elevated hCG level your doctor should do a scan to to see if you have another fetus who survived the miscarriage. hCG levels only rise in the event of a embryo in the first trimester still growing in the uterus or after taking medications that contain hCG. Otherwise after a miscarriage the levels should drop steadily and return to a non-pregnant range within about 4 to 6 weeks depending how far into the pregnancy the loss occurred.
no. your hCG levels should be atleast 20 if you are pregnant. Yes you are if your beta hcg test is above 5 anything less than 5 is not . It doubles up every 48-72 hours when your pregnant to keep the pregnancy going . .
The level of the hormone human Chorionic Gandotropin, more commonly known as hCG is the hormone whos levels are usually what is tested for during a pregnancy test which you have done by your doctor. A high level of hCG indicates a positive pregnancy. In some cases the increased hCG level can be detected in your blood as early as 8 days after conception, but in most cases it is usually around 11 days. During the course of your pregnancy your hCG levels will increase and decrease, with the levels doubling on average every 30-31 hours until they peak, usually around the 9th and 10th weeks of your pregnancy. The level of hCG then decreases slightly until the 16th week where it remains fairly constant until birth http://www.pregnancy-calendars.net/hcg.aspx
HCG? You mean human chorionic gonadotropin? Basically, any drug that will make you have sex without using birth control while you're ovulating will make your HCG level go up, because what makes this level go up is you getting pregnant. And frankly, unless you want a baby I can't imagine you wanting your HCG level to go up because this is the hormone that causes morning sickness.
