Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What is the normal hCG level 5 days after implantation?Doctor's answer:
In a normal pregnancy, the fertilized egg begins to produce HCG six days after ovulation, and blood HCG can be detected around the seventh day. After that, it doubles every 1.7 to 2 days. You mentioned doubling every two days, which doesn't seem entirely accurate when calculated.Hello, generally, an early pregnancy test can be done around day 35 of a missed period, or a blood HCG test can be performed 10 days after intercourse to confirm pregnancy. After conception, it's important to rest and maintain proper nutrition, avoiding spicy and irritating foods. Regular prenatal check-ups, such as ultrasound for fetal anomaly screening and Down syndrome screening, should be scheduled.
