Beta hcg was 470.5 on 7th oct. hcg 5000 injection on 8th oct to prevent miscarraige. beta hcg on 12th oct was 2693. is this from shot or pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most likely...: from the shot is my best guess. The hcg has a half life of around 28 hours, so every 28 hours your hcg level should go down by half in that time period from the synthetic hcg that was injected.Since you had the 5000 U injection you will not likely get an "accurate" pregnancy hcg test until about 10 days after the shot which would be on or after Oct 18th to really know how your pregnancy is going.
