Hello,
I started spotting on Friday which would have made me 5+3.
Just been for a scan today which has confirmed I've had a miscarriage. He said my uterus lining is still a little thick and hence I am still spotting. I have bled and only marked a sanitary towel. I kinda predicted the outcome as I've been testing HCG every day and I saw a peak on 22dpo had cramps the next day and then started spotting 24dpo (last Friday). On Monday my hcg was on 70 previous Monday (20dpo) it was 159 and today it's 75.
My hcg test are still positive but had plateaued but today the line is darker so coincide the slight increase. BBT is still elevated above cover line but has dropped slightly. I have positive LH which I suspect will be hcg.
What's going on?

Confirmed miscarriage but slight hcg increase.

Hi lovely, so sorry you're going through this. I didn't want to leave your post empty. I think the best thing to do would be to ask your epau their thoughts on this as us on here can only guess. My epau do not recommend regular testing following a miscarriage and say to just test 3 weeks after. I hope you get some answers soon.
