Question : Hcg levels went from 13789 to 10379 in the space of two days what does that mean?
Brief Answer:
Can be a threatened abortion.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
A decrease in HCG levels suddenly is suggestive of a threatened or an impending miscarriage. Any subchorionic bleed can also cause such a fall in HCG levels. An ultrasound scan is needed to detect the cause.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
