What Causes HCG Levels To Drop And Then Rise Up?

November 2nd I found out I was pregnant at the ER with HCG levels at 1468. 2 days later, my HCG dropped to 485. That s when the nurse told me over the phone that I had a miscarriage. On November 12, I went in for my my 3rd blood draw to make sure my HCG was going down the way it should and instead it went UP! My HCG shot up to 762! What would cause my HCG to drop and go back up?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your hcg level goes up due to pregnancy but you have miscarriage so level is down. But there may be some tissue left and it leafs to high hcg. You should go for dilatation and evacuation. Clear your uterus completely.
Consult your gynecologist and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
