Second opinion for pregnancy

The question

Hello,

On 9/15, I tested positive on an at home test. On 9/21, I went to see an ob for an transvaginal us where a sack could not be detected. The same day, I got my blood drawn for hcg and progesterone levels. Hcg is at 426 and progesterone is at 8.4. Two days later (today), took another hcg blood test and the level came back to 460. A very slight increase. What could this mean?

Answer from Dr. Geoffrey Sher

That is not encouraging as the hCG should have at least doubled in 2 days!

 

Sounds like this could be a "chemical pregnancy"

 

Sorry!!
