Patient's question:
During pregnancy, it's always particularly uncomfortable, and morning sickness is also very severe. How much does blood hCG increase daily in the early stages of pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Hello, in normal pregnancy, the level of HCG in the blood rapidly increases, reaching its peak at 60-80 days of gestation, with a peak value of 10,000-12,000 μg/L. It then gradually declines, dropping to its lowest point around 160-180 days of gestation, but still remains significantly higher than normal levels. After this, it slightly rises again and continues until delivery. In twin pregnancies, serum HCG levels increase more than double compared to single pregnancies. In ectopic pregnancies, serum HCG levels are lower than those of normal pregnancies at the same gestational stage.
