Question

HCG Levels at 4 Weeks??

Hi Ladies,

I recently got my BFP and went for the routine bloods at 3 weeks 5 days. I went to get the results yesterday and the GP sent me for another test saying "they arent even 200" which my reading was 186? She also said she wouldnt give me a refferal to the OBGYN as the results would alarm him?

So its safe to say i am now alarmed myself and dont know what to think? I am to go for my next bloods in a couple of days.

Your thoughts please and what your early reading is/was?

Thanks!

That's actually on the high end for 3 weeks 5 days! Mine were 112 at 4weeks 1 day (ivf pregnancy) and at 4 weeks 2 days my clinic is happy for anything over 50.. Honestly it's the doubling time that's more important.. Your gp needs to learn a thing or two cause those numbers are GREAT!

That number sounds great to me! You aren't even 4 weeks yet. A GP probably isn't as informed about OB stuff. It's more important that they are doubling properly.

Well i just called back the GP office and spoke to a nurse as the doctor was not available. The nurse said that my results show according to their chart that i and not pregnant? She said it is 180U/L ? Is this different because i am in Australia?

I am completly and utterly freaking out now. Are they idiots or am i wrong?

Jesse theyre idiots! I'm in aus too- technically the nurse shouldn't be giving you the results as they're not trained in normal/ abnormal levels! 180 is great.. I'd be asking to see a different dr.. Some gps do Healy of pregnancy/ baby stuff.. If your in Sydney I can give you the name of a great gp!
