Question: last cycle was oct 12, went to the dr last night and My hcg levels are 235. no visual sac just thick uterus. dr said I'm having a miscarriage, or a ectopic pregnancy, can there be a chance I'm just early?"

Answered by Dr. Ramadevi Wani (22 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Repeat HCG level after 48 hours.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns today.
You have just had one HCG level. It is not enough to decide whether the pregnancy is healthy or not.
One cannot see a intrauterine gestational sac at this level of HCG.
To clarify things you need to repeat HCG level after 48 hours. If the level has increased by 66% or more, it suggests healthy pregnancy.
If you have further concerns, I will be happy to answer.
Best wishes,
Dr Rama
