Question

1st af after d&c, my hcg levels were 8.30 2 days ago and a faint pos preg test?

I had a mmc last month and a d&c Oct. 31. I took pregnancy tests after to watch my levels drop. About a week ago i thought i got a negative. I took another a few days ago and it looked neg then 3-10 mins it turned up a very faint second line. Took another the next morning it was the same. Phoned my doctor and went in for a blood test Wednesday (2 days ago). The nurse said my levels were at 8.30 and to go in for another blood draw in a week. I just started what i believe is my first period after the d&c yesterday. Is it possible to get a period with hcg still in my system? And if my levels are under 25 how did it show up on the hpt?

yes it is possible to start a period with hcg. after my last m/c i started period with leftover hcg about 100.
it takes longer for the urine levels than for blood levels both to rise and to fall, so you can have 8 in blood and still 20 in urine.
