Does not seem to: It is imperative that you contact your OB ASAP so that s/he may look into the matter, may be by imaging, to avoid complications of ectopic pregnancy.

My HCG rose from 119, to 185, to 304, and now to 893 over the course of one week. I am currently 4 weeks, 6 days. Does this seem normal for my HCG to increase later and not double right away? or does this mean ectopic pregnancy?
