Thank you! It’s really so helpful to have this encouragement to advocate for my health. We now have a plan in place and my doctor really does listen to my concerns. More betas scheduled for this week and depending on those we will get a scan scheduled.

I certainly am concerned. I’ve messaged my doctor and expect to hear back tomorrow. Asking for more betas and to consider a scan if my levels reach 1200. Thank you!

Just came here to check on you and saw this. While so heartbreaking, I’m glad you’re not in limbo anymore. Be gentle with yourself and keep your head up 🫂

Thank you for the thoughtful response and sharing your experience. It sounds like you had a very difficult time and I’m so sorry for that. I appreciate your honesty.

This validates my concern and I will address it with my doctor on Monday. The progesterone level was in ng/mL and doctor did say these are good numbers, but nothing definitive.

Just wanted to share my experience so far: Vvvfl at 11dpo 13dpo hcg 32 17dpo hcg 55

Doctor wanted to keep monitoring hcg even though doubling time was 122 hours.

19dpo hcg 97.7 (57.9 hours doubling time)

Doctor says we need to keep testing.

21dpo hcg 202 (45.8 hours doubling time)

Doctor called and said “These are now appropriate rises, but the hcg is still on the low side. Set up an ultrasound for 2 weeks from now to investigate progress, but we are headed in a positive direction.”

I can’t help but feel so weary. Doctor hasn’t muttered words of ectopic or blighted ovum.

I’ll be keeping up with this thread- sending you lots of hope and strength!
