really high beta numbers

Hi Ladies,

I am certainly not complaining over having a BFP, but am having concerns over extremely high numbers. My FET was on 12/12 and my first beta was 12/26 with a level of 2475, Beta #2 was today with a level of 8,288, we transferred one embryo but even with ladies carrying twins/multiples these numbers seem excessively high. Asking my nurse about it today, she didn't seem concerned and said there really was no "normal," that levels vary so much from one person to another. Just wondering if any of you have heard of numbers like this before............thanks!! Congrats to all with recent BFP's. Prayers and hugs to those with BFN's.

Re: really high beta numbers

  • Did you transfer a day 5 embryo?  I was given this https://betabase.info/index.php by the others on the board and it seems pretty accurate if you did a day 5.  Check it out.  I think you are totally within that window.  Congratulations!!

  • I have had high betas (to the point where my friend was convinced I was having triplets) and there's a singleton in there.

    The reason there is a range is because everyone's hormone levels are different.

    Congrats!
