@tgrills I say this gently and understanding of how hard it is…but stop testing with that system!! It will tell you nothing about your hcg levels

@tgrills I’m not sure what intito is but it sounds like it measures LH not hcg? Am I right? If so - you really can’t use that to check your hcg. I know how scary it is after loss but I would get bloodwork rather than drive yourself crazy with home tests.

@domenka What are your dates based on? The rise is certainly concerning. While hcg does slow down, yours hardly rose at all so you do have a right to be worried. I would be guarding my heart with this.

@josephjurg Yeah if it’s a low amount it can happen. Is it likely and common? Not so much.

@ghillie All you can really do is get betas. It’s possible it’s still the miscarriage. You wouldn’t be testing positive from pregnancy on any of those dates yet if you weren’t negative from the mc on your tests until 3/29-4/01. Imo it sounds like it’s still hcg from the previous pregnancy but...
