Are you still bleeding? I think I waited a couple of weeks after mine.

If you feel feverish, any pain or smelly discharge get thee to the docs for a check.

My last erpc I got a negative after 16 days. This one I got a positive at 14 AND had continued bleeding and a sense of "fullness" and it turns out I had retained products (including part of the placenta) so had to have a repeat procedure.

I say maybe leave it a couple of days and then go for a follow up scan. Better safe than sorry!

Thanks iggly and escapeartist. Really good to have your advice. It is so annoying to have worries like this on top of everything else, and getting a positive test was surprisingly upsetting.

The bleeding stopped a few days ago and I have no severe pains, although I do have mild period-like pains in lower back and stomach. I think I will take another test early next week and contact the doctor if that is still positive.

Thanks both.

Hi Wild,

I am so sorry for your loss. I remember you getting your BFP on the thread we were on .

After my ERPC is was 2 weeks before i got a negative test. My doctor told me it can take a good few weeks for your HGC levels go.

Stay stong x

Hi figaro!

Thank you, and nice to see you again, as it were. I see the thread on the conception board is still going strong. Hope this month will be your month for a BFP - fingers crossed. Provided this HGC level issue sorts itself out I may join the thread again soon, as we are keen to get back to ttc.

Lots of love and good luck
