My hcg is going up but slower than expected and doc has asked me to repeat the blood test. Im really worried it could be ectopic. Does hcg still rise in that case? cant stop overthinking till my next scan.
I remember my doc saying that HCG levels can indeed rise with an ectopic pregnancy, but they often don't double as expected or might be lower than they should be for the gestational age. That's why blood tests done a few days apart are crucial, along with early ultrasounds to locate the pregnancy. Please connect with your gynac ASAP.
Haan, HCG levels will rise even if it's an ectopic pregnancy. The important thing is how quickly they are rising, that pattern is what the doctor looks at. You should definitely speak to your gynac and get proper monitoring and ultrasounds done if you have any doubts. Don't delay, okay.
Oh, this sounds like a really concerning question, dear. Yes, HCG levels do rise even with an ectopic pregnancy, though sometimes they might not rise as quickly or as much as in a healthy uterine pregnancy. Please, please talk to your gynac immediately about any concerns or symptoms you're having. It's so important to get it checked quickly for your safety.
While apps can track a lot, for something as serious as an ectopic pregnancy, you absolutely need professional medical guidance. Yes, HCG will rise, but the pattern is different. Your doctor will do blood tests and ultrasounds to confirm. Pls see your gynac immediately if you suspect anything or have pain.
