I have had 3 ectopics in 4 years. Its still early enough that they will be able to catch it with blood work every 48 hrs. If your hcg levels are only going up in small increments its ectopic and will not show. They will most likely give you a shot of methotrexate to kill the live cells but you are pushed back on ttc for 3 months. They can do a test after, that checks to make sure your tubes are clear and ive heard after that test people have gotten pregnant, like the fluid cleaned out the tubes. Hope this was helpful.
Chemical/ectopic? But HCG rising???
Hi all,
I got faint positives at 13dpo but then experienced a period type bleed 2 days later with cramping which still remains 4 days later. I have had bloods done twice and HCG is low and has gone from 32 to 69 in 2 days (this would be 4 weeks pregnant). I have had an ultrasound where they found a blood clot in my uterus but it was too early to see any sac within uterus or possibly ectopic.
Dr wants me back for HCG readings in another 48 hours and then go from there.
I am so petrified of an ectopic pregnancy but it is too early to show on any scans.
Has anyone had similar experiences? Doctor keeps saying it could still be viable but I’m finding it SO hard to believe right now.
So exhausted from all the unknown

Thanks for sharing, sending you lots of baby dust. Thanks for the reassurance that with close monitoring (if ectopic) hopefully we can manage it best way possible x

It would be so hard to not stress given your experiences. I can’t believe how stressed I have been over this and it is still such early days.

Im a nervous wreck now when ever I miss my periods I take a test. If it is positive I go straight to my doctor. Thankfully his office has a womens only quick care type of thing set up. So i get blood work and ultrasounds done quickly. Which sucks when ttc cause you are not suppose to stress lol. Thank you for saying that some days I dont feel strong.
