Need to repeat test: HCG level of less than five occurs in non-pregnant state. A level above 25 indicates pregnancy. In between requires retesting in 4-5 days. You do not necessarily need to repeat the blood test. You may do home pregnancy test. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions for the test carefully. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time, every time. You may consider implanted contraceptive, or IUD. Practice safe sex. Get HPV vaccine.
