Where/how do you figure out your HCG level?

Question

Im 5 weeks, first time pregnant and have no idea what my levels are. how do I get it?

Answer

You don’t.  You doc may only check them if there is a problem.  May I suggest not knowing your numbers cause it’s a stressful game 🙄

Answer

I’m 19 weeks and haven’t had them tested this pregnancy and I’m glad tbh I find it less stressful. With all my losses it added more stress constantly checking the numbers. It’s not going to change the outcome x

Answer

You go to the doctor to confirm the pregnancy, they will draw some blood and then test the hCG levels.

Answer

I never found out mine. I’m 12 weeks 2 days now but my doctor said they don’t check them unless I’m bleeding or something. Less stress for me lol.

Answer

Your doctor would order them if needed.

Answer

There's no real need to know them

Answer

Every doctor seems different. Mine ordered bloodwork as soon as I called and told them I had a positive test (all three times) to check HCG and progesterone. When they called to confirm the levels with me, that’s when they schedule my ultrasound. Only if there was a problem, like my HCG was low on #2, did I need a second draw.
