B HCG

Hi, I stared the HCG diet 10 days ago using the drops. I also am trying to have a baby so I had sex three times during the week of ovulation. Last period was on January 8. I have had pregnancy symptoms, five positive pregnancy tests, no period. I did have some spotting but it was brown which makes me think that I am pregnant. I am not sure if it is the HCG drops causing a false positive test. Last night I put some of the drops on a pregnancy test and it was a faint positive. My dr. recommended a blood test and then another 48 hours later. I have poor insurance coverage as I am a business owner, and I don't want to spend the money on the blood tests this early. I usually have a 28-31 day cycle. I am thinking of just waiting a couple of weeks, I live a healthy lifestyle. Advice, sorry to ramble on. Jaclyn

Hi Jaclyn!! your issues as to whether the test for pregnancy is actually positive or not are actually confirmed by the serum beta hcg which if doubles in 48 hours means a viable and growing pregnancy. please get the blood tests for the pregnancy done as told. Also ,i hope you had rhogam after in your 1st pregnancy and after the miscarriage. Also your previous pregnancy with history of incompetent os means that this condition is likely to happen again so go in for prophylactic encirclage of the ...

She told to use it as per instruction ..I read the manual its written to take 4-misoprostol tablets after 1-3 days of taking the mifepristone tablet. Its mentioned to take Misoprostol Vaginally. As my pregnancy is only 23 days i don't want to take misoprostol vaginally..rather i want to take it orally. Can i take Mankind Brand's Unwanted Kit's Misoprostol dose orally in my case. If not mankinds any other good brands..cipla, sun alternative for using misoprostol orally. S. Dey. Age-25, Weight 49, Hgeight 5 ft.

Hi, The time gap is same whether drug (misoprostol)taken orally or vaginally.the drug whether taken orally or vaginally it is to be taken 2+2,you will take the first dose after 24 hours of mifepristone and then after 12 hours rest of the 2 tablets. But these drugs will be useful only if the pregnancy is intrauterine. Hope you have confirmed that. Yes it is possible that some products of conception are retained even after drugs and that can be confirmed only after an ultrasound,which is to be d ...

I need to abort my 3 to 4 weeks old pregnancy. I have tested my urine wait the pregnancy test tube (HCG test tube). It gave me a positive pregnancy result. Now i wish to abort it at home. I do not wish to go to the hospital and am not economically well too. hence please guide me with the quick abortion in a simple way.

Hi!! Pregnancy cannot be less tahn 4 weeks as it is always counted from the day of the last menstrual period,so your pregnancy should be calculated accordingly.Also,termination of pregnancy ,is not such a simple procedure, so kindly consult a gynaecologist,get an ultrasound done for early pregnancy to calculate the exact size of the pregnancy,blood group and haemoglobin done. Taking over the counter medications cause more harm and may even be life threatening,so kindly refrain without proper pre ...

Hello Doc I am diagnosed for PCOS ,TTC with siphene 100mg. On the 13th day of my periods the follicular study shows Right 8.3X8mm ,left 9.9X7.2 mm, i was not convinced with the scan report due to some reasons which i faced during my previous scan ,so went for another ultrasound scan from another hospital on the 14th day of my periods. The folicular size on 14th day shows Right :10.6x7.6mm and Left 14.9X9.4mm My question here is how can the follicules in a day grow from 9.9x7.2mm to 14.9X9.4 mm? and are there any chances for me to concieve this time with follicules 14.9x9.4 mm on the 14th day by an HCG shot at the right time ? and taking ultrasound scans many times is of any harm ????

Hi, Ideally if some one has a regular cycle(periods) the follicle should be mature and ready to rupture on thirteenth day,size of a mature follicle is around 20-21mm when it ruptures. It depends why metformin is given to you if the only cause is pcod and is just given for this then it would be stopped after you conceive,but if you have type 2 diabetes(insulin resistance) along with pcod then it would be continued life long. Many people achieve periods after they have their first baby. ...

what can cause hcg level to rise apart from pregnancy? i have missed period for only 2 days. Because of my curiosity, i brought two home pregnancy test kits and checked. when i checked for first time with I-CAN kit, i got faint pink line. I was happy that i was pregnant. The very next day, when i checked with APOLLO kit for confirmation, i got nothing. Im really in the state of confusion. Am i really pregnant or what?

Hi, Just wait for a few days, do it on seventh day of missing your periods,although some test kits are very good and they even would tell or give positive result on second day of you missing your periods,but still you can wait for a few more days to get confirmatory results. Do it on 7th day. Other causes of raised hcg are usually not so common. ...

Period was late 4 - 5 days, then I had sudden cramping and thought it was my period symptom. Went to the ladies and realized I had passed out a lot of water like liquid on my panty liner. Later in the evening, cramping became bad, went to toilet to check, I had passed out a jelly bloody like tissue that is quite huge like a small air balloon....(it's not blood clot) and went hospital. At hospital, nurses did a pregnancy urine test but results were negative. Question: Can I pass out gestational say due to maybe some blighted ovum case but urine test still show as negative ....hcg levels low?? I had a miscarriage before just 1.4yrs ago where baby was 3 months then suddenly no heartbeat and had to perform a d/c.

If pregnancy test done on same day and negative and serum beta hcg test low, can be biochemical pregnacy . Ectopic pregnancy should be ruled out. Best thing could have been biopsy of the sac like thing which was expelled out. It can also be a decidual cast.U should also get a scan done which is to be interpreted in accordance with b hcg report ...

I have been married for 5 years, had 2 abortions (normal) (so I am not infertile since I concieved twice and was normal), now trying to concieve for 3 years but facing PCOS.. The gynac has given clomeva -500 for 3 months, and HCG iv- 1000 for egg release, but still unable to concieve, for last month she has prescribed PROGYNOVA, and I have not got my periods for this month, which was due on 15th June... I got my pregnancy reports negative..... ( I wish to wait but she has prescribed MEPRATE; to start my periods).... she is planning to do ASM test and tube test later.....

Hi. There is a way to compromise if your doctor wants to induce your menstruation but you want to wait. Instead of Meprate you may take Duphaston 2x a day for 10 days. If you are not pregnant, you will have our menstruation a few days after last intake of Duphaston. But if you are pregnant, this will act as hormonal support for your pregnancy. ...
