A member asked:

I recently went to the doctor and they said that i am pregnant. however my hcg levels are very low. is my baby in danger?

What did yoru doc te: Tell u , if your HCG levels are low that is either bad or you could be very early, a normal Progesterone level is reassuring and the bhcg should double very 3 days and u should be able to see a fetus with a htbeat on us at 6 1/2 weeks.
