HCG levels at 7 weeks pregnant

6 replies

Hi all, just wondering if anyone can tell me if my hcg levels are okay? I got my blood test at 6 weeks 6 days and it came back as 62, 760. It seems acceptable as they told me levels can be from 4000 to 153000... I just wonder what most peoples numbers are at this stage or if anyone had similar or lower levels and had a healthy pregnancy?
I'm asking because my symptoms are milder than my first pregnancy and it feels like the hcg isnt very high. Thank you

Hi OP, that seems a good number but one on its own doesn’t really say anything, do you have another blood test scheduled to see if the levels have increased? It should near-enough double in 48 hours

Hi @Eeyorehoney , thanks for the reply. I ended up going for a private scan on the same day as they had a cancellation. There was a strong heartbeat so I decided not to repeat the blood test and wait to do a scan again in a few weeks. I was just curious as to what other people's levels were at this stage or if low hcg correlates with mild symptoms...

I only got hcg tests done at 5 and 6 weeks, then once I knew level was high enough I went for scans.

At 7 weeks, scans are definitely more reassuring once you see a heartbeat as hcg level doubling levels slow the further you get on and it would only be stressful to try and monitor them.

I'm around 8 weeks and for a few weeks I was worried as symptoms have been super mild, it feels more like a light hangover feeling with some food aversion, no nausea etc.

Yes @T2024 , I cant believe how mild my symptoms are...I experience very mild nausea when I get hungry but I just keep my tummy full and I'm fine 😃 I'm hoping to get another scan post 8 weeks. The sonographer told me when you get past 8 weeks, the chances of miscarriage reduces down to 5 percent.

That's so good @Toddlermum2024, I had a scan at 7+5 the other day and seen a heartbeat hoping that it still puts me at good odds. Hoping to go at 9 weeks if I can hold out lol and hopefully see a strong little baby 🤞☺️

I had a private scan at 6ish weeks and they were able to tell me the exact heartrate which was good to see whether it was a strong rate for that gestation.

Thats good @2021expecting I think 9 weeks is a good time to have another scan. I think I'll try wait until then too!
