Question 1

what does beta hcg positive for a virgin girl indicate?

Accepted Answer

Possible mass: If a girl is truly not pregnant and has an elevated (usually quite high) beta-hcg, this could be caused by certain tumors such as germ cell tumors.

Question 2

hcg positive in urine but not in blood. what will cause this?

Accepted Answer

Several reasons: First of all urine tests are prone to false positives, meaning you are not pregnant but it shows you are. In addition, it may be a low value and an early miscarriage and even a blood test a day later is already negative.

Question 3

i have the placenta from my sons birth 2 months ago. i read that blood from the placenta can be infused to me. theres blood in the placenta. if thats transfused back into me, and hcg comes from placenta, will that blood make me hcg positive?

Accepted Answer

: No good would come from infusing blood from a two month old placenta, You would be at risk of getting infections and developing clots in your blood vessels.

Question 4

u/s at 7wks showed no heartbeat. dr. said get d&c or wait to miscarry. almost 2 wks later, no miscarriage, hcg positive. can the dr have been wrong?

Accepted Answer

Possibly : Your hCG will continue to be positive but if it is declining it is a sign of a miscarriage. You should check with your doctor to see if your levels are declining. If they are increasing, it is possible that you were too early to see a heartbeat.

Question 6

12 days past frzn blast trnsfr 1st blood test has hcg level of 38. dr said its positive but low - go back in 2 days for 2nd test. should i be hopeful?

Accepted Answer

Certainly!: Your doctor is right you should check again. I wouldn't call it too "low" because there is no absolute "how low is too low, " but it's lower than is often seen. Why not stay hopeful?: congratulations on the positive, and please keep your appropriate follow-up.

Question 7

on oct 22 my hcg level was 5000 and  i been getting positive test. on today i went for an ultrasound and they couldn't find anything. should i be worried?

Accepted Answer

5000: It's tricky to give  good answer without more information but basically you should see an intrauterine pregnancy at hCG above 2000. You would NOT however see fetal pole or heartbeats at 5000. Work closely with your doctor, hope this helps.

Question 8

my beta hcg level was 380 sunday and monday its 578 had iui done march 19th positive test april 2nd today had us anxiety not sac?

Accepted Answer

Concern: I know you are worried because you would expect your numbers to be higher. The fact that it went up that much in 24 hours is actually a good thing. One would not expect to see a sac in the uterus until it got higher 900-1000 on transvaginal ultrasound. Please stay in touch with your fertility doctor and let him continue to monitor you with ultrasounds.

Question 9

what does a positive pregnancy test with a 300 count hcg mean? what does the hcg level indicate?

Accepted Answer

Congratulations: You are pregnant. The level depends on the duration of pregnancy. See this site for more information on HCG levels.

Question 10

my hcg level is 5 blood test did not come back as negative or positive for pregnancy could i still be pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Depends: An HCG level of 5 is inconsistent with pregnancy, unless it was done too early. Conception, as defined by the generation of a fertilized ovum, occurs within day or so of the sex. However, it takes about 3 weeks for the embryo to make enough HCG to produce a positive pregnancy test. Blood test may be done a day after a missed period. Home pregnancy tests should be done 4-5 days after the missed period. If the result is negative repeat the test in 4-5 days. Use first morning urine and follow instructions for the test carefully.
