XP: Beta numbers, what do you think?

in Pregnant after a Loss

I am 14 DPO today.

HCG: 140

Progesterone: 9

Doctor seemed okay with them....I am really freaked. I guess I thought they'd be a lot higher....

Opinions?

    I think the beta looks good you are more looking for the doubling with the next one I would be a little more concerned about the progesterone did they mention that at all?

    He said my progesterone level is in the middle, it could go either way.

    I would request a progesterone supp. Your hcg looks good, but the doubling is really more important that an initial number.

    Dx: MFI- 3% morph
    IUIs: Gonal-F + Ovidrel + b2b IUI= BFNs

    My HCG was half yours at 15dpo. Your beta looks fine.

    The P4 number is a bit low, but keep in mind that P4 fluctuates depending on the day and even the hour.

    I'm sure you know this, but the thing that counts in the doubling time of the beta.

    I agree about the progesterone supp.  That's a little on the low side--my doctor wanted it to be above 20 at 16 dpo, otherwise she was going to give me a supp.

    My beta at 14dpo was 138. Didn't get my progesterone checked. We decided not to look at doubling, but if you are I hope the next set helps you feel more reassured. I think those numbers look just fine! Hang in there.

    Ask for a progesterone supplement ASAP. If he gives you a hard time, demand it.

    Ditto, my dr wants it to be above 20.

    The HCG looks fine, but really what you are looking for there is a doubling in 48-72 hours.  I would be more concerned about the progesterone.  Have you asked your Dr about that level?
