A member asked:

If my pregnancy doesn't show up at 5 weeks on a scan but shows positive on home test, is it possible for ectopic pregnancy? i had 3 positive test

Possible ectopic: It’s possible you have an ectopic but more likely just a very early pregnancy. Typically your blood beta-HCG levels are monitored to see if increasing and a scan is repeated a week or two later. It’s also possible to have a spontaneous abortion.

Blood HCG: You blood level of HCG need to be monitored serially, every 2-3 days, to see if the level is rising as it should in a normal uterine pregnancy. Wish you good health and a healthy baby!
