Doctors unsure if Ectopic or not πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Hi everyone,

On Friday I was told they could not rule out an ectopic pregnancy as they found follicles and then a small black hole next to one during my internal scan. I could clearly see the screen and they are still unsure if it’s another follicle or ectopic.

I initially thought I miscarried 4 weeks ago.

I started blood tests on Thursday 30th September and have had these every 48 hours since.

They were 47,51,45,41,37. Today they were 70 which I am baffled with.

I have had bleeding since Tuesday 14th September. This stopped yesterday so I was really hopeful that my hcg would be much lower today.

I have a meeting tomorrow to discuss the jag but I wanted to flag up my concerns, the bleeding and also the fact I am 100% ovulating right now.

I have no pain and no bleeding.

Is ovulating possible and has anyone else experienced something similar?

Thank you in advance x

Dear Megan,

I am so sorry to hear of your loss and that I didn’t get to this post sooner.

I hope you have more answers by now.

Sending much love,
