My test came positive but my hcg numbers are not rising the way they should and doc wants to rule out ectopic. Im honestly bohot scared right now. Does hcg still show up if its ectopic?
My heart goes out to you, ectopic can be so stressful. Yes, the test will show positive, but HCG levels can be irregular. Please reach out to your doctor immediately for a scan, especially if you have even a little pain on one side or spotting.
Yes, HCG is detected because there is a pregnancy, but the levels usually don't rise properly or double like a normal pregnancy. Please don't ignore this if you suspect anything, and get an early ultrasound done by your gynac to make sure the baby is in the right place.
Actually yes, HCG is produced but the levels might rise very slowly. I'm currently pregnant and my doc checked my HCG twice early on to confirm it's progressing fine. Did your doctor suggest a scan or blood tests yet?
Yes, the home test will show positive because HCG is present. But ectopic is serious, so you need to be very careful and under medical guidance. When I had my C-section delivery later on, I realized how important early medical checkups are for safety.
