Got my blood test done and the report has an hcg number but i dont understand what counts as positive. Will show it to my gynac but in the meantime im too curious. Can someone explain what level means pregnant?
My HCG levels were super high which my doctor said was why my morning sickness was so extreme. If your level is above 5, you are pregnant, but keep taking small meals if the nausea starts hitting you.
Yaar, actually anything above 5 mIU/ml is positive, but it should ideally double every 48 hours in early weeks. Don't stress too much over the numbers, just let your gynac guide you.
I had an ectopic pregnancy before, so I know HCG tracking is critical. While above 5 is positive, you must repeat the test after 48 hours to check the doubling rate as recommended by your doctor.
I know how anxiety-inducing it is to wait for the blood test reports and stare at those numbers! Please know that anything over 5 is positive, so try to take a deep breath and trust your doctor.
Don't spend hours analyzing blood reports yourself. A level above 5 mIU/ml is positive, but just email the report to your gynac and let them confirm the next steps while you focus on your work.
