Patient's question:
At 35 days pregnant, I had a thorough check and my progesterone level was 15, HCG was 8800. I had brown discharge and was taking medication to support the pregnancy. Now at 40 days, my progesterone is 127, HCG is 50035. Is this normal? I've had two injections but still have brown discharge. What should I do? Can the baby be saved?Doctor's answer:
Based on the data you've described, the rise and doubling of blood hCG is very good. Now that progesterone has also increased, the likelihood of preserving the pregnancy is high. There is a small amount of brown discharge, and you don't need to worry about it. Many women experience this during pregnancy, and it is a common phenomenon. For example, if you previously had cervical inflammation or erosion, it may have been relieved after becoming pregnant. As long as there is no fresh peeling or significant abdominal pain, the pregnancy can generally be preserved. Now, relax your mind and focus on the treatment to preserve the pregnancy. Try to rest as much as possible.
