HCG levels

Hi girls..

I had my DandC 3weeks ago now and my HCG is down to 8. Can I still get pregnant if we start trying again? Or does it have to hit 0 before you can conceive again?

Thanks girls xxx

Hi most studies have found that hcg needs to get to zero before ovulation can happen - it can happen once you get below 10 but that's the exception rather than norm

Hi @Lea89, how are you? My cycle went back to normal straight away. I was still getting positive hpts when I ovulated. My first af arrived 2 days later than normal.

I was also told we didn't need to wait for af to try again. No luck for us so far though. Good luck 🤞 x

@venusstar Hellooooo!! Aww it’s so lovely to hear from you, I’m really well how are you?

Well, I must be due my period in around 1 week as it’s been 3 weeks since my DandC surgery now. My HCG got to level 8 after 2 weeks post surgery so EPAU we’re happy to discharge me at the level. We’ve only been trying for the past 1 week so it’s just a waiting game isn’t it. If I haven’t had my period within the next 2 weeks I will do a test xx

Glad you're well @Lea89

I'm having a bit of a rough time. I'm under a fertility clinic and had a hsg this week which triggered my emotions about the miscarriage, everything just came flooding back. I know I will be OK but feeling like it's an uphill battle at the moment.

Fingers crossed af doesn't arrive next week for you 🤞 xx
