My friend's hCG test results came back yesterday at 18381.3+. Is this a good level? We're testing ag…

hCG is monitored over time.

What else needs to be tested dynamically? With this hCG level, an ultrasound is already needed.

There's no point in tracking hCG levels when they're this high, as it's no longer informative. Just go for ultrasounds now to monitor progress there.

Let them go for the ultrasound, what's the hCG for?

What's the point of taking it then? Just do the ultrasound.

Anna In any case, we just need to monitor with an ultrasound. With these numbers, hCG testing isn't informative. We just need to watch the ultrasound for dynamics, to see if an embryo and heartbeat appear.

Anna That's understandable

Good hCG for 6 weeks pregnant. Last week I had an ultrasound and they saw the gestational sac, the corpus luteum is moving. I had another ultrasound a week before that. The corpus luteum was in the ovary from which ovulation occurred. Now I'm waiting for the embryo to grow so I can see it and its heartbeat on the ultrasound. It seems her pregnancy isn't dated from the first day of her last period, but from ovulation, just like mine)

Alena With this hCG level, there should already be an embryo visible. You should definitely go for an ultrasound to draw conclusions.

Anna HCG also rises with an anembryonic pregnancy, so this test isn't indicative for her right now.
