[quote=Anonymous]A second beta is done to see if it is doubling, and sometimes subsequent ones are done to rule out an ectopic. There is no medical reason to keep doing betas, but nowadays patients demand them and also demand certain medications. Since things like progesterone support are not harmful, demands are usually given into. I agree, it is more harmful than helpful with regards to the serial betas. Also, progesterone does not prevent miscarriage it prolongs it's occurrence if it is going to happen. [/quote]
