Hcg levels

Hcg Levels went from 9784

to

14,876

Not quite doubled, but it was a bit short of 72 hours time.

Dr. wants to repeat the ultrasound on Friday. I am simply going to go absolutely insane until then!

Anybody have experience with hcg levels that were a little off (good or bad) and care to share their story?

I don't remember off hand what the number was, but when I got my blood test results, it appeared that I was two weeks further along than I was.  The ultrasound cleared that up. Baby was measuring 7 weeks and had a strong heartbeat.  I'm still progressing from that timing, not the blood work.

Here is another post from a few years back, hopefully this will give you a little piece of mind. Good luck! And T&P for a great ultrasound on friday!

My numbers were doubling every 2 days or so and recently they only doubled one time in a week, which is a little concerning. The numbers are in my siggy if you're interested. My RE's office explained that once the levels reach a certain point they start to double slower, and yours seem pretty high so I don't think you should be too worried because they are still increasing. 

I have to go back for a 3rd ultrasound tomorrow to see if everything is okay.  

Good luck!

the higher they get, the longer they take to double. my were sky high, and doubling appropriatly for how high they were. i was told my pregnancy was most likey not viable due to levels being off. 8 months later my healthy as horse baby girl arrived. good luck, and stay positive!

Thank you ladies!!

 

This is especially helpful for anyone who might be going through something similar:

 * For HCG levels <1200 mIU/ml, the expected doubling time is 48-72 hours.

* For HCG levels 1200 to 6000 mIU/ml, the expected doubling time is 72-96 hours.
* For HCG levels >6000 mIU/ml, the expected doubling time is >96 hours.

This actually just gave me a little hope that my levels doubling one time in a week might be normal... if they are doubling every 96 hours then that might be true. Thank you for sharing.
