What does 6 mIU mL mean?
An hCG level of less than 5 mIU/mL is considered negative for pregnancy, and anything above 25 mIU/mL is considered positive for pregnancy. An hCG level between 6 and 24 mIU/mL is considered a grey area, and you’ll likely need to be retested to see if your levels rise to confirm a pregnancy.
How far along am I if my hCG level is 6000?
Normal hCG doubling times
| hCG Level | Doubling Time Expected |
|---|---|
| Under 1,200 mIU/ml | Between 30 and 72 Hours |
| 1200-6000 mIU/ml | Between 72 and 96 Hours |
| Over 6,000 mIU/ml | Over 96 Hours |
What should hCG level be at 4 weeks?
Standard hCG levels
| Pregnancy week | Standard hCG range |
|---|---|
| 3 weeks | 5–50 mIU/mL |
| 4 weeks | 5–426 mIU/mL |
| 5 weeks | 18–7,340 mIU/mL |
| 6 weeks | 1,080–56,500 mIU/mL |
How many days after implantation do hCG levels go up?
Implantation occurs on average 9 days after ovulation (range 6-12 days) or about 5 days before a missed period. hCG levels are detected in the blood as early as 2-3 days, and in the urine 3-4 days, after implantation.
What is a normal hCG level one day after missed period?
For example, just one day after your missed period, your hCG level may be just 10 or 15 mIU/mL. Or it may be more than 200 mIU/mL. Each pregnancy is different in this regard. What really matters is the change over time. Different people will have different baselines and still have lasting pregnancies.
How many days after a miscarriage can you test hCG levels?
Doctors chiefly use doubling times to confirm a pregnancy, not diagnose a miscarriage. According to the journal , a 53 percent or greater rise in hCG levels after two days can confirm a viable pregnancy in 99 percent of pregnancies.
How often do beta hCG levels double in early pregnancy?
Beta hCG levels usually double about every 2 days for the first four weeks of pregnancy. As pregnancy progresses the doubling time becomes longer. By 6 to 7 weeks beta hCG levels may take as long as 3 1/2 days to double. hCG normally reaches a peak level at about 8 to 10 weeks and then declines for the remainder of the pregnancy.
