Re: Normal HCG for 5 weeks

  • The American Pregnancy Association says 18 -7,340

    But everyone is different. What matters is that you are doubling every 48-72 hours.

  • HCG levels range dramatically between individuals.  Since numbers double every 48-72 hours early in pg, the number might have ben half that just two days earlier, so even though two women may both be 5 weeks, the number would vary a lot based on when the egg implanted and HCG began to rise.  Plus, some women's numbers go up faster than other.  Here's info from a chart I found:

    3 weeks LMP: 5 - 50 mIU/ml 4 weeks LMP: 5 - 426 mIU/ml 5 weeks LMP: 18 - 7,340 mIU/ml 6 weeks LMP: 1,080 - 56,500 mIU/ml 7 - 8 weeks LMP: 7, 650 - 229,000 mIU/ml

    Did you ask your doctor is he/she felt the number was in the normal range?  If your egg implanted just a couple of days on the earlier side, it could account for being in the higher range.

  • The doctor said everything was normal.

    Could it be a sign of multiples?

  • My HCG was at 800 something @ 5 weeks.  Which I also figured was about 16dpo.
