HCG level
HCG Didn't Double
QUESTION
Dear Midwife,
I found out I was pregnant and my first Beta was 233. I went 2 days later for more blood work and an ultrasound since I am prone to miscarriages and on the ultrasound the tech and the doctor both thought they saw the beginning of a gestational sac. I was shocked. I have read a sac can not be viewed until levels are about 1000 and mine were below that at that time. The doctor told me my levels must have jumped to see the beginning of the sac. I had them tested again and they went up to 381 which they said was ok but not awesome.
