A member asked:

I was on bc nuvaring for 5 months, now ttc beta hcg 6.8 but got my period; whag does this mean?

HCG: An HCG of 6.8 is very low - could just be a lab error. Even though you had some bleeding, you could still be pregnant. Another HCG test should be done. A urine HCG test will not be positive until the level is 25 or above.

Hcg: It is hard to give you and useful information with only one bhcg level. This is higher than some labs would consider a normal non-pregnant level. You would really need to have a follow up level to get any further useful information. You should follow up with your doctor.
