HCG Level

Hey ladies!
Got my HCG level drawn today because I don't know when my LMP was. I have access to my chart online, and the level came back at 23,562. I have no idea what this number means!

Anyone had a similar value to this and remember how many weeks they were? My "guess" would be that I am around 6 weeks if I try to approximate my last period (which I think may have been around September 17th.). So just curious if this number would correlate to that gestation.
Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks a lot!

Re: HCG Level

  • HCG is really bad for estimating gestation because of the huge range for each week. It confirms that you're likely close using your LMP (and that you're definitely pregnant) but that's about it.

    My 2nd beta was 2900 at 4w6d. Based on that, I could have reasonably been between 5 and 6 weeks gestation which is a huge range developmentally.

  • That number correlates with 6 weeks. I'd say you are 5 -6 weeks.
