HCG level at 6wk5d was roughly 34,500... Clomid pregnancy and waiting to find out if it's multiples next week? Any insight on the hcg levels indicating one way or another? Thanks!
HCG levels don't indicate multiples...Only an ultrasound can determine that. Did you have ultrasounds throughout your cycle to know how many mature follicles you had before ovulation?
Someone on my BMB is expecting triplets and had HCG within normal range, she had no idea until her ultrasound.
The range is so large that you could have one in there pumping out 40,000 or two pumping out 20,000 each, both would be considered completely healthy. In the end, an ultrasound is the only way to really know.
