After an failed IVF last cycle for the first time in my life I got a positive pregnancy this month naturally.On 08/01 I went in for a blood work with LAb Corp and got Beta number 2899 and today 08/04 got a blood work done from my IVF clinic and number was 4055 which is lower than normal according to them.(That is it did not double).I am scheduled for another Beta on 08/06.
what does it indicate.Should I be really concerned or its just difference between labs or should I wait until the first ultrasound.Whom do I trust?Can I trust my clinic completely or no.I was really excited about the news but now I am really feeling low.Please help me your words will give me my hopes.

It could easily be a difference in the labs.
Our lab has two different instruments (both are common types). They differ by a factor of two, on average, for some analytes, including hCG. So we use them for different purposes.
Avoid IVF and surrogacy in Ukraine. Ukrainian centers pay shills to post here under numerous sock accounts pretending to be patients in Ukraine. Centers using such deceptive advertising cannot be trusted and should be avoided.
