Suggest Treatment For HCG 900 During Pregnancy

hello, my sister did the pregnancy test and was found to be pregnant 3 days after she missed her period. a few days later she started seeing some blood so asked her doctor and he asked her to do the HCG test then repeat it after 48 hours. she did that, it was 700 something and after three (not two) days it was 900 something. he told her it is a weak pregnancy so she wil lose the baby in a few days. she is still seeing some brownish fluid from time to time but no blood i.e hasn t lost it yet. should she take some enhancers of pregnancy to help keep it or not?

OBGYN,  's  Response
Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood the concern. If the pregnancy is viable and progressing well, serial serum beta-hCG titres should show doubling every 2-3 days. Since, unfortunately, this is not so, the viability of the pregnancy is questionable. In such an instance, there is no use in giving external hCG to maintain the pregnancy. Progesterone supplements can do more harm than help in such situations. Yet, you can wait for a few more days while following up with serial serum beta-hCG titres and sonograms to see if anything positive happens. Meanwhile ask her to take absolute bed rest and avoid stress. Hope you find this information useful. Take care.
