Hello, and I hope I can help you today.
Your falling HCG levels definitely mean your pregnancy is not viable and at some point may result in miscarriage. Depending aon how many weeks along you were, you can have bleeding, even with clots, before you completely pass the pregnancy.
So I recommend you follow up with your GYN Doctor so they can perform an ultrasound and check your HCG level again to make sure all the pregnancy tissue has come out.
I hope this adequately answered your question and that my advice was helpful.
Best wishes, Dr. Brown
