Elevated BHCG Levels. Ultrasound Showing Sac In Uterus. Will The Levels Raise Again?
My BHCG has risen at the 6week mark but not doubled. My progesterone is 150, ultrasound showed sac in uterus with something in it but too early to say if it was fetal pole developing. My dr has ordered another us this Thursday 6 days after my last and bhcgs again this Friday. Is it possible that my levels will rise again and that my pregnancy will continue along normally?

You have to monitor your beta hcg levels every 48hrs. If they are not rising adequately then there is a chance of a missed abortion. By 6-8 weeks,fetal pole and cardiac activity should appear.Repeat the ultrasound after 2 weeks.
