How long does it take to get a negative pregnancy test after a miscarriage?

Question

Hello so it’s been 20 days after my miscarriage and I still get a faint positive test. Last week my hcg levels were 47 after it was 1200. I tested two days ago and it was negative I tested today and it’s faint positive. I was 5 week pregnant but I had a blighted ovum. My doctor is going to check my hcg levels on the 20. Just waiting hormones to go back to normal. I been having sex since October 5th it’s only been a week. Any ideas ladies. How long does it take for hcg levels to go back down. I mean it’s been a week since I had 47. I thought it would be low now.

Update this morning I just got a strong positive ovulation test after 20 days of my miscarriage. I been testing ever since I got a negative pregnancy test. About a week now. I been having a lot of nausea and sore breast. I am praying 🙏🏼 that soon i can get pregnant again. Hoping for a rainbow 🌈 baby for all of us that are going through a miscarriage. Baby dust ✨✨✨✨ to all.

Answer

Various tests have different levels of sensitivity. I'm 7 weeks post loss and have a lab confirmed value of 2. At 4 weeks post loss it was 7. At 5 weeks it was 6. 
FRER is still positive at a level of 2. Pregmate is still faintly there at this level. Digitals and Walmart cheapies are now negative. Check the sensitivity level of your tests and use the same tests consistently while tracking your levels down.

Answer

I miscarried at almost 11 weeks Sept 5. Passed mostly on my own, but I ended up needing a D&C Sept 10. HCG strips tested positive for 3 weeks, and my period finally returned October 7. Just confirmed LH peak and ovulation yesterday/today.

Answer

Sorry about your loss. 
It took mine 12 weeks for it to be negative HCG levels in my system. Worst 12 weeks of my life! And now I’ve been trying since but nothing. Hoping your levels come down fast so you could get back to trying again!🤍

Answer

Everyone releases their HCG differently. Some faster than others. I've seen people get pregnant right after a MC without a period. It took me 3 almost months for my HCG to go down to 5. Now, I'm currently waiting for my HCG to go down as well and it's been 3 weeks since my D n C. In the meantime, we can just prepare our bodies by eating healthy, taking your vitamins and de-stressing (which is not possible for me cuz my job is always stressful, hard for me to avoid). I also wonder if you're further along in the pregnancy, if it would take longer for hcg to go down. I was 8 weeks at the time for the first mc and this time, I was 13-14 weeks.

Answer

Mine took 6 weeks. The 4th draw was 15. A week later it was 9. Then finally was negative.
