Could I be a few days ahead of where I thought?

Question

So little back story we bd on 4/14  cd 11 and I think I might’ve ovulated early cuz my hcg came back as this so it puts me in 6 weeks and my first test put me in the 5 week mark when I should have only been 4 weeks that test was 2444 and here’s the test from yesterday. What do y’all think?

Answer

It’s possible you ovulated early. But HCG is hugely variable. My HCG had me a week ahead through every early test. But I was seeing a fertility specialist so we knew exactly when I ovulated. I just made lots of HCG. I wouldn’t stress about it. As long as it’s increasing normally it’s a good sign. You’ll get a solid idea of sates at your first ultrasound. Congratulations!!

Answer

You can’t determine weeks pregnant by HCG because the ranges are too large. Just go by LMP until dating scan. Just know you could measure a few days early based on expected early ovulation. Spent can also survive several days, so day of BD may not be exact conception date.
