HCG Levels

in 1st Trimester
I’ve never been pregnant before, and I can see my blood test results online which is nice, but then I have to wait for a nurse to contact me back to explain things, and even then they don’t give much info. I am 6 weeks and 4 days along now, my latest results say my HCG is 59,761 and progesterone is 11. My results two days ago were HCG 38,039 with progesterone at 17. My progesterone went down and that worries me.
Is this normal?

    HCG is supposed to double every 48 hours.  If your HCG level is doubling in that timeframe, then your PG is progressing as it should be according to HCG.  I'm not sure about progesterone levels, I'd recommend googling that.  However, if your doctor/nurse are not concerned, and you are not considered high risk for PG, then you should not worry yourself.

    RE 1: ALL the testing - 'unexplained'  "Yinz can do IVF or try on your own"

    Feb 2017 - 4th MC: 6 weeks

    RE 2: More tests. Still 'unexplained.'  Called fat for an entire hour-long appointment, cried a lot

    Feb 2019 - 5th MC: 6-7 weeks

    IUD - March 2019-March 2023

    RE 3:  Repeat all the tests. Hoping to try IVF.

    At some point, your HCG levels start to plateau. I wouldn’t recommend googling. Wait for your doctor to get back to you and take deep breaths.
