Question : Hello Doctor, MY LMP date is 15/12/15 I missed my period so took a home pregnancy test which gave me a very light line so I did a Beta HCG test on 21st XXXXXXX which showed a count of 260 Non Pregnant, so did another test on 23rd which result was 385.02 and last test done today which result was 1027.32

Had a mild spoting so my Dr asked me to take a medicine (Duphastom). I am taking it since 23rd XXXXXXX

I am confuse whether I am really pregnant or not, If pregnant will this be a successful or not, please help me.

Get an ultrasound done

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
If your beta hCG levels are above1000, then you are definitely pregnant.
Since you are 6 weeks pregnant by the date of your last menstrual period.You should get a ultrasound done to confirm the pregnancy and its viability.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Please do get back for further queries.
Wishing you good health.
