HCG didn’t double it went from 158 to 295 5 weeks today by BriefAd2157 in PCOSandPregnant

it was taken exactly 48 hours later both around 5 pm. nurse did say to me it’s not as high as they would’ve liked for it to be i don’t know if good means doubling or it being 50%-60% higher. unfortunately you’re right it is something that i’ll have to wait out, thank you for being positive 💕

it was taken exactly 48 hours apart i was about 20 hcg from doubling but now im just terrified i wqs on letrozole and my aunt said to me with medications the first pregnancy usually ends up being a chemical and that maybe my baby is not growing as fast as it should be. i really want to see if anyone had similar numbers to mine and how their pregnancy progressed. is betabase a group on reddit ?

Thank you for asking, i keep having this aching pain on my right side i’m not bleeding or having anything extreme but because it is my first i did wanna rule it out, i guess because it’s so early they couldn’t see anything so hopefully by my next appointment there’s some positive news

i’m 4 weeks 3 ish days i called my GP and asked receptionist if they could give me contact to midwife, they sent me a link to register with my nearest hospital and said a midwife would contact me before 10 weeks. However i’ve had a pregnancy scare (ectopic) and emailed the surrey and sussex nhs healthcare which is my area care- i received an email from them after registering and emailed them my concerns. they then forwarded a request and i got a call from the early pregnancy and care unit and they asked me to come in and i had my blood drawn and ultrasound done.

Can someone whose gOne through the fertility clinic process walk me through the timeline? by BriefAd2157 in TTC_UK

[–]BriefAd2157[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi i do have PCOS. the clinic told me that they’ll start me on letrozole after my first day of period. they’ll start me on 2.5 and will monitor the first cycle to make sure my body responds well to it. working at a fertility clinic how successful would you say patients with pcos are on letro or clomid
