HCG level at 4 weeks

29 replies

I am 4 weeks 4 days (since my last period)
After already having 2 miscarriages in a row this year I am understandably worried.
Yesterday I went to my local EPU and had a blood test just to settle my mind. I have no pain, no bleeding and nothing that makes me think I could suffer a 3rd miscarriage.
I wish I never went now as my HCG levels have come back at 82!
Is this normal, has anybody had a level so low and continued to have a healthy pregnancy? I'm back tomorrow for a second blood test but I am on pins, hoping they have doubled and just need some reassurance. Thanks in advance.

They can’t see a reason for the bleeding, they could see a embryo with a heartbeat, but very small. They didn’t seem concerned but I know it is very small considering I have a report from exactly the same stage of pregnancy with my DD. Trying not to worry as they didn’t seem worried and I know measurements are very difficult when they are tiny. Hope you’re doing ok x

Aw good that's brilliant news.
I've had a dose of methotrexate to remove the baby from the tube. I wish you all the best xx

Hi everyone

Really hoping to get some advice/reassurance.

Last AF was 29th Jan, last time had relations was Feb 16th, I have had 3 positive pregnancy tests last week, and I started to have a bit of blood appearing after going to the toilet when wiping, not every time but the last 3/4 days it's been on and off

I went to the clinic yesterday and they did some bloods, my HCG levels were 77, but they're saying it should be closer to 1000 for 4/5 weeks since last AF.

Obviously I'm really upset this is our first pregnancy and we were so excited been trying for almost 2 years! I'm 33 for reference.

Today also iv started getting period like cramping in my groin, I wouldn't say it's painful but uncomfortable definitely. No change in bleeding though.

I'm going back to the hospital tomorrow to get more bloods done but has anyone else been through this?

Thanks xx
