How long did your tests look like this after a miscarriage?

Starting bleeding on Saturday and my positives got weaker and weaker. Phoned GP Monday morning and reported an MC.

Not my first so knew the drill.

Have been continuing to get positives. Been having cramps on left side, and left side back and shoulder pain. Reported it to out of hours doctor who told me to wait it out and go to a&e if pain gets severe.

Tested this evening and this is the current positives and I'm worried it's not passing as it should.

My doctor told me to look out for these symptoms with an ectopic, maybe worth ringing someone

Hi OP I ended up overnight in hospital when I miscarried but was told by the gynaecology team to test one week after the miscarriage to check whether it was positive (had a line similar to yours) then, after calling back with my results, I was told to test again the following week (also had a similar faint line). I went in that day, they did another test, it was negative so they discharged me. I didn’t really believe it to be honest but a week after that I got my period (which I believe you only get once your hormone levels return to normal?).

I've been told to test three weeks after MC and if it's positive then there could be stuff retained. I plan on testing weekly though as they said if I get a negative earlier then just let them know.

I was still positive at 2.5 weeks after miscarriage but tested negative after 3 weeks.
