HCG 0 = AF?

Hi everyone, I am new to this site but was wondering if anyone could answer this question for me. I just finished a failed FET and I think my period is starting. Does this mean that my Beta number is abck down to 0?

Thanks

I could be wrong but I think AF is more related to ceasing progesterone than it is to 0 hCG. I had a m/c and it took me 3 months to get AF even after blood tests had shown my hCG was back down to zero. If you think about it most of the time our hCG is at 0 but we don't have AF all the time.

yes, thank you, I didn't think about it that way. I went for b/w but my doc never called me back with my numbers. I am going to call them again.

you were right my beta was 100 with AF.

Sorry to hear about the BFN. I would have expected that your beta would have been significantly lower since my office considers anything > 50 a BFP. Was it a chemical pregnancy?

When I had my chemical, I started AF while still on the progesterone and my beta on that day was 172. Every woman is different and some will get AF while they have their hcg above 5 and others won't have AF for a while even if their hcg is back down to 0.
My Dr. tested me until my number was below 5 to make sure it went down the way it should.
I'm sorry that you had a failed FET but I really hope that the next time is going to be your time.

Best of luck and big hugs!
