HCG levels: In pregnancy HCG is expected to approx. Double every 48 hours. Abnormal rise could be due to several factors such as abnormal pregnancy or ectopic pregnancy. It is important to also check and see if all tests were performed at the same lab. Ectopic pregnancy possibility should always be considered as it can lead to severe complications. An evaluation by your doctor is a must in this situation.

Careful Evaluation: If you put back only 1 embryo, then it is definitely an abnormal pregnancy. It could be an ectopic so you need a careful ultrasound and to be followed. If you put in more than 1 embryo, it is possible one took and grew and the other did not and that can be tricky to figure out. Still, most likely this is not viable based on the actual numbers. May need treatment next week.
