Low hcg at 5 weeks?

Question

I’m exactly 5 weeks and I got my hcg done today and I’m at 220. This seems very low... I’m freaking out as this pregnancy is right after my miscarriage... I’m trying to stay positive but I can’t help but think of the worst... 
Any insight or even positive stories to keep my spirits up? I’m just so nervous!!
Thanks in advance!

Answer

Have you had a scan to confirm the measurements? My HCG levels at what I thought was 5-6 weeks pregnant were saying I was 3-4 weeks so I was worrying like crazy i got a dating scan which indiaxated I was 5 when I should have been 7 no heart beat or feral pole then 3 weeks later I got a follow up scan which had a healthy heart beat and a 8+2 week baby so sometimes you may just ovulate late. 
Try be as positive as you can because it didn’t help me worrying!! 
Good luck x

So everything ended up being ok?? My HCG was 475 right at 5 weeks so I’m super nervous. I go in tomorrow for more bloodwork

Answer

The first number doesn’t mean much. My first number at 4w1d  was 182. They just need to double every 2 days. I went in at 5w1d and it was at 3484. If you’re feeling uneasy, ask them to do another one just to make sure. Congratulations!
