Hello ma'am and welcome.
CRP is raised either in a infectious or inflammatory process, the body can recognize the non-viable pregnancy as foreign resulting in an inflammatory process in your reproductive tract, which could cause a raise in CRP.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Development of gestational sac without embryo is called blighted ovum.

Early elevation of hcg levels can be seen due to the placental tissue.
But because of absence of fetal tissue expected rise will not occur.
Decreasing hcg levels may indicate absence of embryonic tissue.
Rise in CRP (C reactive protein) levels indicate:
- Impending abortion or preterm labor
-Subclinical infection etc.
So, you can consult gynecologist once and take tablets to induce abortion.
Take care.
