Hey guys need some advice

[Anika123]

So I had a misscarriage just last week and was asked to do another pregnancy test to confirm if I’m not pregnant

so did one today not sure what to make of it
rang my docs will get a call in afternoon

? Is it too early

I'm sorry to hear about your miscarriage. If it was just last week and you haven't had a negative pregnancy test since, this is almost certainly HCG left from the pregnancy - it can take a while to drop down enough for a test to be negative (for me it was 3 weeks before I got a negative test after miscarrying). I'd test again in another week's time.

Yes I’d say it’s too soon, you can still get a positive pregnancy test for up to 4 weeks after miscarriage. I’m sorry OP x

How far along were you?
I had a miscarriage in August, I was 10 weeks. My epu monitors HCG post miscarriage. Initially after 48h but then every week. It took 2 and a bit weeks for my levels to be 25ish. They usually monitored until below 20 so they said wait a week and do a pregnancy test. If it was positive they would run another test. I did a test at 3 weeks post miscarriage and it was negative. My HCG started at 17000 so it took sometime to come down. It should half every 48h or thereabouts.

I was 8 or 12 weeks I think

That's peak HCG levels they could have been 10k-20k+ potentially 100k+
Let's say they were 10000 it would take 18 days to get below a detectible level. I would wait until 2.5-3 weeks post miscarriage and test again

It can take at least 3 weeks to get a negative pregnancy test post miscarriage, sometimes longer. I was advised to wait 3 weeks before testing at all. Leave it another 2 weeks and test again, if that one's positive contact your GP as could indicate retained tissue. I'm sorry for your loss.
