Is it okay if doubling time for your betas slows down?

I had betas done at

11DPO 60

15DPO 546

22DPO 8135

Between the first two the doubling time was 30 hours, now it's 41 between the last two. Does that matter?

  • You are still within the normal range so I wouldn't worry.

  • From everything I've read, once beta's go over 5000 they can take from 72 to 96 hours to double.  I would say your numbers are great as my numbers with my miscarriage were not even that high at 8 weeks!

    I talked to my mom ( she is an infertility nurse) and she said they like to see a 65% increase at least between tests

  • Totally normal, your hormones don't continue to double at the same rate after the first few weeks. I can't remember the exact stats but they do slow down and then plateau around week 10.

  • It should double within 48 to 72 hours so yours is perfect.
