Question

Hcg and possible ectopic pregnancy

My hcg levels have been really low 34 at 5 weeks 48 2 days later then 95 at 6 weeks. Dr told me the pregnancy was not viable which is obvious given those hcg levels. I had an ultrasound to rule out and ectopic pregnancy and they didn't see anything in my uterus or tubes...the tech actually asked me if I was sure I was pregnant. Dr called me that evening and said that he needed to monitor me for a ectopic pregnancy still. I need blood work Thursday and another ultrasound if they are higher than the last. Has anyone experienced anything like this? I really hope it's not an ectopic pregnancy but I want it to end and they really didn't give me an idea of how or when it could end or if they could do anything to help it along. I just don't want this to drag on...

I had this happen to me in 2006. They also didn't see anything in my uterus. To be safe they gave me methotrexate to make sure it dissolved on its own so I could avoid a rupture or the need of surgery.

I had an ectopic also and my numbers looked like that, increased but didnâ??t double. I would just definitely take it easy and be cautious. If you notice any odd spotting or pains do not hesitate to go to the ER! I got the shot of methotrexate and i only needed one round to dissolve the pregnancy. Best of luck, itâ??s tough but if you stay on top of it you can avoid surgery!

Thanks girls for your responses. Had blood work today levels dropped to 33 had strong heavy cramping today and started to bleed. Relieved my body just took care of it on it's own. I can try again when my cycles return to normal.
