I had HCG and Progesterone bloodwork done at 15dpo. I got my levels back- HCG was 1,060 and Progesterone was 26. Of course I googled and it seems like my level is really uncommon on the high side. Looking at my chart and when I got a + opk, I don't think there is any way that I ovulated earlier than I think.
Any insight into what this could mean or anyone else have high levels early? Googling seems to bring me info on both multiples and molar pregnancy, both of which freak me out (moreso the molar pregnancy obviously).
Re: Anyone else have very high HCG levels early?
Thanks! I didn't get to speak with her bc I missed the call but she just said the # looked good and since it was high, I didn't need to come in to do a repeat just go for my u/s at 7 weeks.
Should I call and request a 2nd or just go with what she says? It seems like the doubling is what is important, right?
Love, Amanda

This doesn't mean your hCG levels are high.
BFP #1 9/7/10, EDD 5/14/11, Violet born 5/27/11.
BFP #2 4/9/12, EDD 12/16/12, M/C Rory 4/24/12.
BFP #3 10/6/12, EDD 6/16/12., Matilda born 6/17/13.
Exactly this. A pregnancy test picks up HCG at some pretty low levels. Someone here can post the link.
To the OP = If your doctor isn't concerned then I wouldn't worry. A lot of times they don't even do HCG levels. I didn't get them done with my 2nd or 3rd and everything is ok.
This. I only had them done, because I know too much TB. lol
Nope she just said that since my # was "good" and high, that I didn't have to come in for a repeat. She didn't seem concerned at all.
Now I am debating if I should call and ask for a repeat.
My numbers were higher than what the range was on the charts but, I think it is important to remember, those are just an average range. Being outside of it does not mean anything is wrong.
If you would feel better having a second test done, call you doctor. You can tell her that you are really worried and that you would feel better if you could make sure your levels are rising like they should.
