A member asked:
Is it possible to have a drop in hcg level and still have a healthy pregnancy? hcg 42, 000 drop to 40, 000 if ultrasound shows heartbeat on thursday?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Hcg levels do go down later in pregencany and the difference between 42, 000 and 40, 000 is not clinically meaningful.
