Hello, I had a mc at 5 weeks. When I got my betas tested they were down to 17 two weeks ago a day later I started bleeding. Since then I took HCG tests at the Obgyn's office that resulted negative, but I didn't test again at home. I've been using Ovulation strips for the last 7 days trying to see the changes in my cycle, but the ovulation tests have all had pretty dark lines but no real LH surge. I read today that the strips may be coming out dark because of HCG which automatically made me think that I have hormones left over from the mc. I took a first response that has a vvvf sliver of a line.. I have been having unprotected sex since bleeding stopped and one time the day before the miscarriage bleeding started. Now I'm confused because my HCG urine tests in the Drs. office were negative after the mc bleeding, and even 2 days before the bleeding my levels were only at 17, It's been 2 weeks, has anyone else experienced this?
