Question

How soon after your levels are below 5 after a miscarriage can you take a pregnancy test again?

I had a miscarriage on April 12, 2015 at 5 1/2wks. Levels were less than one on April 15, 2015. The doctor told me that we can try again right away. But it was not a normal period so wondering when would be a good time to start testing again? My husband and I are heart broken but want ttc right away, as I feel we are ready.

I'm sorry for you loss... If your levels were less than one, a pregnancy test will no longer be positive due to your previous pregnancy, so you can test anytime. I've had a miscarriage myself at 4w4d and fell pregnant the next cycle (now at 7w1d). I hope this gives you some hope! Good luck!!!!!

I am wondering the same thing. I have a miscarriage at 6 weeks on March 22nd. My levels didn't go down to 0 until April 7th. I'm still waiting for my normal period to happen....... Good luck to you and your husband!

I was 4wks and 5 days when my hcg levels dropped. My miscarriage was more like my normal period. It lasted for 3 days light like usual. Took a test a week later it was negative. And that was on the 28th of March. And I was told to keep trying. To treat the misscarriage as a regular period. And I did. Continued to count my ovulation dates up and I just took a pregnancy test today and it's positive!!!????good luck. I say keep trying.
