Low HCG

**Emma09** · August 5th, 2012, 02:54 PM

I am looking for other people's experience with low HCG.

Today I am CD31- 14DPO- 9days past IVF transfer of a 5 day embryo.
I experienced implantation bleeding on CD25&26.
Had my BT today.
My HCG is very low 26.
My progesterone is also low- starting pessaries tonight.
It's a long wait till my repeat BT on Wednesday.

I'm quite hopeful that it's still early, so my HCG could go up.
Anyone have any stories (positive or negative) that they can share?

Should add that I got a BFP on Friday just gone.

DD started at 27 at 16DPO, and is now a rather active three year old - don't fret on the starting number hun - just stay positive til Wednesday!

If it was a FET, those are notorious for low hcg levels early on. I have a friend who had low, slow-rising hcg levels after her last FET and her little boy just turned 1. He was perfectly healthy in spite of terrible test numbers in those early weeks. It's far too early to throw in the towel! I'm keeping my FX for you!!

My hcg (natural pregnancy) was 18 at 14dpo cd 28 and I'm now waiting impatiently for this boy to arrive who is 6 days past his EDD.

I don't recall implant bleeding (was so long ago)

Will keep my fingers and toes crossed for you and I hope your hcg rises nicely

Thanks ladies.

It was a frozen egg transfer

i'm crossing everything for you hun, and can't wait to know your next BT results.

stay positive!!!

This is reassuring for me too Emma! I spent the last two days googling and there's no answer!! Some seem to lead to live births and others didn't. We can cross everything and hope its good for both of us xxx

Glad at least you've got some answers and can take your progesterone to help it stick.

Emma I had implant bleeding on the Thursday morning one wipe of pink then nothing. This was 11 days after we last dtd. I got the faintest bfp on the Friday night, Sunday I got positive digital and then Monday I got positive bt hcg of 35. Which was 15 days after we last dtd. As it was a natural cycle I didn't really know when I ovulated but assume it was a day or 2 after dtd.
Good luck sweetie hcg has to starting building somewhere before it gets higher!!
