First Trimester Screening
From dr: One of the hormones measured, HCG, was low and this prompts some increased monitoring as the pregnancy progresses. Most of the time, the pregnancy progresses normally but I recommend additional ultrasound surveillance as noted below. In your case, the recommendations for low HCG are the same as the plan we made for your pregnancy at the time of your visit.Low beta-hCG - Adverse outcomes have been noted in patients with extreme low first trimester free beta-hCG levels, < 5th percentile (<0.38 MoM). Women with free beta-hCG <0.38 MoM there is a 1 to 4 percent risk of pregnancy loss before 20 weeks, depending upon the degree of reduction of the marker. Free beta-hCG less than the 1st percentile (<0.21 MOM) was associated with a significantly increased risk of intrauterine growth restriction, with positive predictive value of 14 percent
I'm trying not to get scared but this is my rainbow baby. Anyone else have any similar results and pregnancy progressed well?
