Jes Beta 6.2 only

Post by jes77 »

Dear Ladies, Ghost,

My scheduled beta test is on 12th Aug, but I went today (8/8/08).
10dp4dt.

and my beta is 6.2 and progestrone 41.7 nmol.

I do not have any hope. Dr. told me to continue the medicines and come for another beta on 11th Aug.

I had my HCG shot on 4th August, I think the 6.2 should be from that HCG shot.

GOD - why such a pain !

Jes.

Hi Jes,

I'm sorry your numbers were low. I have heard some stories about peoples numbers being low and they doubled after a few days. Also some people can start with low numbers and then they have a sudden surge. I hope you get some good news :)
Take care

Jes....don't give up yet. I highly doubt the 6.2 is from the hCG. Wait for your next beta to see. I'll be thinking about you!
I am an infertility nurse and I work in a major IVF facility. I am willing to answer questions and give guidance, however, since I am not treating you, only your physician can give you the most accurate information.

This is confusing. You say you are 10 days post transfer, so your transfer was on the 2nd. But your hCG shot was on the 4th? 2 days after transfer?

That must be hCG for luteal support, which is somewhat unusual these days. hCG promotes progesterone production by the corpus luteum, and that progesterone promotes endometrial development. Most clinics just give the progesterone directly.

Given your hCG shot was only 4 days ago, the answer is yes, a reading of 6.2 could easily be from the hCG shot. Sorry if that sounds negative, but we can't ignore a 4-day old hCG shot when interpreting an hCG level.

It is clear BFN as expected !

I have stopped my medications and expecting my perid to start in a day or too.

we are planning to change the clinic as well.

I have lot of general questions about frequent IVF failures linked with Male Factor, which I will post in a day or two.

Thanks a lot for all your support.. and good luck ladies..

Best regards,
Jes.

Sorry to hear that. It seemed likely to turn out that way, given the details you posted before. Your "positive" was probably your 4-day old hCG shot.
