HCG - can you help?

Baby_B · Jan 24, 2009 5:56AM

My HCG at 5+3 has come back at 14866 which is REALLY high. My gp said you would expect that level for people who are 6+. I'm really worried as if you google 'high hcg' loads of stuff about molar pregnancies comes up but I have read that it can also be a sign of twins.

Does anyone have any experience of hcg levels and twins?

Hey sorry dont know what my level was but know i POAS 7 days before af and it came up as a strong +ve which my mw said was an early indication of twins. have you been booked into a EPU?

I got bfp at 10dpo, but it was quite faint. Got darker really quick though.
Haven't been booked into epu. Got another blood test today so when I get the results of that - which probably won't be until next week

- I will speak to gp about early scan.
My progesterone at 4dpo was 66 and I was taking clomid, plus I'm a twin and hubby's mum is a twin so it seems quite likely - eeek!

Hi

twins run maternally due to hyperovulation, so if your a non-id twin then ur chances increase (twins on dh side dont have ne influence) plus clomid increases the chance of hyperovulation.

good luck, hope you join us xxDBxx

Just to update you - I had a scan last night and turns out it's just the one baby! My hcg levels are just really high. x
