How To Treat Elevated HCG Level And Discomfort During Urination?

I have a question I am 6 weeks pregnant. I had my hcg level drawn and then 48 hours later I had it drawn again my numbers almost trippled within the 48 hours. However I had this done when I was 3 weeks pregnant. I have been feeling a little uncomfortable here and there on my left side however it doesnt hurt its just uncomfortable when I have to pee or have a bowel movement. My appointment with my OB/GYN isn t until next week. Could this uncomfortable feeling that I am experiencing be the corpus luteum?

Hello dear,i understand your concern.In my opinion the uncomfortable feeling in the abdomen might not be a major problem.It might be muscular origin as muscle cramps are quite common in pregnancy.The tripling of Hcg is a good sign.Nothing to worry.Avoid physical strain and intercourse.Take rest.Consider getting an ultrasound in the next appointment.Take panadol if pain is severe.Constipation might also cause similar problem so see to that the bowel movements are normal.Take adequate fluids upto 3 litres per day and healthy nutritional diet.
