How long for negative test after MMC?

I know everyone is different but just wondered if anyone is willing to share when they got a negative HCG test after miscarriage?

Miscarriage started naturally with most tissue passing two weeks ago, still ongoing bleeding which I have been told is normal, scan to confirm no retained tissue that needs intervention but still really strong line on tests

Also any success stories after MMC welcome 🙏

I've had 4 MMCs now and it has always been around 3 weeks after. Sorry you're going through this x

Sorry for your loss, I know how hard it is 💔

2 and a half weeks for me, and they said it should be negative by 3.

I’ve had:
First MMC
Successful pregnancy
Second MMC

Hoping for another successful pregnancy but my cycle has been all over since the second MMC so making it a bit difficult.

So sorry you're going through all of this. 4 weeks for me still positive. Fingers crossed!

@Moosey898 I am so sorry that must be an awful thing to deal with 🩶

@Tinytotdriver ❤️ this was my first pregnancy so very anxious about what the future holds, just keep trying to think no amount of worrying will change it unfortunately

@ByPoisedTurtle same to you ❤️❤️❤️ naively I never realised how long of a process this all was

So sorry to hear about your loss.
I had a MMC back in 2021 and it was around 2 weeks before i got my negative test - i then had a successful pregnancy.
I had another miscarriage earlier this year at around 6 week and i bled for around 7 days and i got a negative test a few days after i finished bleeding which was surprising!
I have had 3 cycles since that loss, i am hoping that we do go on to have another baby xx

4 weeks since medical management of MMC and still positive albeit very faint. First BFP after 3yrs of infertility and ivf 💔💔😭😭

I was told to test 3 weeks after my MVA for miscarriage, and not to try again until I’ve had a period. Test was negative, I’m clearly ovulating this week, so now we wait!

@PlanBFertility your story is exactly the same as mine - 3 years, IVF and a first BFP that ended in MMC too! Just wanted to say I hope you're doing OK 💗
