Question

How long?

Okay, so, I'm currently in the midst of a chemical pregnancy, I was just wondering how long it takes for the hcg to get out of your system? I'm still testing + on my tests.

First let me say I am sorry for your loss. Just remember you have a little angel waiting on you:) When did you find out that the pregnancy was not progressing, or that there was not a zygote? I am assuming it was rather early... I lost a baby at 10wks and it took over 6 weeks to return to normal. If you were not very far along (which again I am assuming since chemical preg are usually early on), I would think it wouldnt be but a week or two at most. Are/ or have you already had a "period"? Are your lines getting lighter (which would indicate dropping hcg)? I do not want to falsely get your hopes up, but if your lines are getting darker or not going away after a while, I would go see a doc for confirmation. I was told I had a mc at 6 weeks, but my blood work showed increasing hcg...later an ultrasound confirmed the pregnancy was still viable (i ended up losing it at 10 wks for good). I will be better able to answer you with some more info.... I hope this helps a little

hcg takes about the same time to get out as to build up - just as it doubles in 2-3 days, it cuts by half in 2-3 days. so if you start from say 1000, two-three days later you have 500, two more maybe 200, etc etc. takes a while.

Hello ladies, thank you for answering, I'm sorry for not responding sooner, my week has been busy. I got a faint positive on a Wondfo at 10dpo, 4 days before my missed period. My strongest positive was the second day I got a positive, then they started to grow a little fainter, so that's when I knew I was going to have a chemical pregnancy. It was my first pregnancy so I kind of figured it would end up with a sad ending. My period came on the day it was supposed to, I continued to get very faint positives about three days into my period. Then, it dissipated completely. I'm supposed to ovulate on the third, hopefully my cycles aren't going to be crazy after this. Thank you for your well wishes!
