Hello,

Thanks for your query.

I have read you query and I understand your concerns about pregnancy status.

Following is my reply:

1) Congratulations !!! You are definitely pregnant.

2) Your serum beta hCG blood test is good and value seems to be excellent and corresponding to the period of pregnancy.

3) You can directly get transvaginal ultrasound scan after 10 days.

4) Meanwhile start folic acid tablets.

I hope I answered you query and addressed your concerns.

Let me know if you wish to ask any further questions. I will be glad to help you.
