HCG : Is found at some amount in any pregnancy. In an ectopic pregnancy the baby plants in the tube instead of the uterus. As it grows and stretches the tube it causes pain. If not found the tube will burst and needing will start and the mom can die. It is not possible for this baby to live.

Variable: May or may not increase but if it increases will not be a normal increase which is doubling of the HCG every 3 days, or stay the same also the Progesterone level is usually very low with an ectopic and once the beta is more than about 2200 should be able to see something inside the uterus.

If your hCG beta levels are doubling an an early pregnancy, do you still have a chance of having an ectopic pregnancy?
Early pregnancy-Im concerned about a drop in my progesterone level. DPO 12: HCG 100, Progesterone 34.7 and then DPO 14: HCG 298, Progesterone 27. HCG obviously looks good- but concerned about Progesterone dropping. Had a missed ectopic 3 months ago?
I have an ectopic pregnancy I was given the methlotrexate shot a week ago today on 9/1 my HCG level was 1900 up from 1060 last week. Did the shot work?
My HCG rose from 119, to 185, to 304, and now to 893 over the course of one week. I am currently 4 weeks, 6 days. Does this seem normal for my HCG to increase later and not double right away? or does this mean ectopic pregnancy?
My hCG level went from 524 to 616 im six weeks and three days could I have a normal pregnancy or is this a ectopic again?
