HCG levels, what's yours?

keightlynn · August 2013

Mine is like crazy high... At 6w exactly it was 75000+!!!! They looked for twins but none to be seen. One sac, one heartbeat. Could a possible identical twin be hiding since it was such an early US? It's driving me nuts why my level is this high.

What's your levels?

At 4 weeks exactly, it was 200, up from 25 four days before.

Weds at 4w it was 104 last Friday 4w2d it was 252. Getting another drawn this Friday.

Last Thursday I was at 454 (I'm about 5w, haven't had the dating u/s yet) and two days later on Saturday it was to 1410....

the last time my betas were checked, i was 2,023 at 4 weeks exactly. if i do the math and assume exact doubling (which is unlikely... i was more like 250-270% increase between all of my betas, so the doubling estimation is conservative) my 6w levels would have been somewhere around 250,000.

that's a big reach, i know... and i know your levels start to taper off after a certain point... but mine were VERY high for when i was tested (higher than the highest level reported on betabase.info) and i am only having one baby. i wouldn't doubt you only have one baby too. u/s techs don't generally "miss" sacs in the uterus at the 6w mark

congratulations!

At 13DPO I was at 128. 16DPO was 480. My doctor only does 2 betas, so I have no idea where I'm at now.

Sometimes high betas correspond with multiples; sometimes high betas mean absolutely nothing but you're pregnant! I had extremely high betas with my first pregnancy (can't recall the exact number)...just one baby.

16 dpo 137 and at 19 dpo and 4 weeks 4 days 756.

How do you know your levels? Is this something done at the Dr office?

WifeofaComposer · August 2013

20dpo = 1,178
22dpo = 2,973

I think mine are fairly average levels. Our doctor is happy with them, so I'm happy with them.

1983sas · August 2013

@mooncusp22 , hcg numbers are from blood draws. Not all offices do it - I only know my numbers because I had a m/c in June and they wanted to make sure my numbers were doubling. You can request them, I think, but I wouldn't worry if I didn't have to. No one's numbers are alike, and there is a HUGE range of normal, even from woman to woman

sistersiren69 · August 2013

I'm six weeks along with twins and my report today just said >5,000

sambrownmac10 · August 2013

My test at 14dpo was 174 they didn't do a second said they were happy with those numbers.

LyndseyLC · August 2013

no clue? how do you find out? Dr.? My first appt is at 10 weeks Sept 19th. I am worried mine are low since I dont really have any pregnancy symptoms. If low does that mean more chance of miscarrage
