[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've posted several times on this board because I am extremely surprised to be pregnant (history of ectopic pregnacy and 7+ years infertility). At 5-6 weeks ish I have a relatively low HCG, 270. i Know what matters is doubling time, but if my progesterone is normal - 28 - should i not be thrilled? because what i am gathering online is that 99% of pregnancies with normal progesterone above 25 are viable and fine. only fear is that i miscarried from last month and that's why there is HCG, since i had a very long cycle and lots of bleeding. but then again I had taken a high sensitivity pregnancy (urine) test and it was negative.[/quote] The hcg level matters more than the progesterone. Unfortunately, 270 is not a great number for the 5-6 week mark. While it's important to have a good progesterone number, that alone is not a sign of a pregnancy that will continue. Is there a chance your dates are off and you are earlier than 5-6 weeks?[/quote]
