help with interpreting hCG levels

[sonkT]

Hello,

I am on bromocriptine due to elevated prolactin and took medication to induce ovulation. We had our IUI on Mar 11th and I have 28 day cycle. My cycle started on Feb 26th. I tested positive with at-home urine kit and got my hCG levels tested on Monday 27th. They were at 43.4 and again on Wednesday at 69.5. Nurse is predicting that it is abnormal pregnancy and wanted me to come in for another hCG tomorrow Friday.

Is there a light at the nd of the tunnel? Is 49.5% increase low? She said they wanted to see hCG at 100 with doubling over two days.

I do not have any pregnancy symptoms.

Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot!

Put the results into this calculator. It will help you see how it compares to the minimum levels expected.

I don’t think the raise is too low at this early stage but the trend is important to monitor so hopefully you see another decent rise with the next blood test.

sorry I just realized I had a typo in the second hCG level.

first hCG: 43.4
second: 64.9

thank you @Madwife123 i put in my numbers in the calculator and it is showing 2-day increase as lower than normal :-(
