Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

HCGs...

I know a ton of people ask about this, so I apologize in advance. The day before I officially m/c (4/10) my levels were at 23,000. The next day when I did miscarry (4/11) they had dropped to 13,000. When I went to my Dr. for a F/U (4/14) the had dropped to 1,400. Wednesday (4/21) when I went for my weekly draw, they were down to 150. Anyone want to play devil's advocate and tell me that I should be at 0 this coming Wednesday (4/28)??

Re: HCGs...

  • It seems like they should be at 0 by Wednesday because they seem to be dropping pretty rapidly.  I would be surprised if they weren't, at the very least, below 5.

  • I bet you'll be at zero.  If not, you'll be very, very close.  Good luck...let us know when you get the results!

  • It took me 2 weeks exactly to drop from 135 down to 13.  It then took a week to go from 13 to zero.

  • From what I understand...as long as you're bleeding, your numbers MIGHT not reach the "<5" mark.  They MIGHT...but MIGHT NOT.  I hope yours are down to 0!!!!!!!!!

  • Well as of yesterday (knock on wood) I'm officially not bleeding anymore. I am just so fed up with being poked and prodded, so I'm hoping, scratch that, praying I'm down to zero on Wednesday...

  • Good luck! My HCG has been taking forever. It went from 70 at week 2, 20 week 3, 14.5 week 4, 12, week 5, and I hoping for 0 next week. I hope you get a 0 at your next blood draw.
