Hello! I was wondering if someone can give any advice? or point to anyone with similar experiences.
I had an Ectopic pregnancy about 5 weeks ago and I had surgery to remove it. My left Fallopian tube was removed. My pregnancy tests are still positive. This is absolutely not a new pregnancy.
I have had some scans and there is nothing to see.
I then had some blood tests and my pregnancy hormone is stable at around 1000 with blood tests taken two days apart.
I have another scan booked with the consultant.
I am wondering what will happen next.
Dear jesenavaranjan,
I am so sorry to hear of your ectopic pregnancy loss. Unfortunately we are not able to provide personalised medical advice so I am unable to give specific advice as to why your hCG is still elevated. It can remain elevated for a number of weeks lost surgery, but we usually see that it has decreased by week 3-4.
I am glad you are being monitored and I hope you get more answers with your next consultants appointment.
Sending much love,
