Beta hcg declined from 165 to 130 in 48 hours. What does that indicate?

Question

I got my beta hcg tested on 12th (18 dpo) it was 165. Today when tested, it was 130. Is there a problem? Anyone?
I do not have any spotting, bleeding or cramps. Started taking folic acid tabs from yesterday. Can it be the reason?
Update: It was an ectopic! I had an ultrasound today. But not severe.

Answer

Ectopic or chemical

Answer

It isn't supposed to go down. You may be having a chemical.

Answer

It can mean bad news. I’m sorry you are going through this

Answer

I’m sorry but that sounds like a miscarriage. My hcg went from 115 (Thursday) to 148 (Saturday) to 112 (Monday) and I began heavily bleeding Thursday. They should never be dropping.
Has your ob talked to you?

Answer

Sounds like a threatened miscarriage. Hopefully we are all wrong and everything ends up ok 🙏🏻

Answer

It's never supposed to go down. Sounds like an impending miscarriage
