Brief Answer:
Not worrisome.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
HCG levels of less than 10 are just a normal physiological variation and are not worrisome. Such minor fluctuation in these levels is asymptomatic. You only need to monitor the trends by getting the repeat levels checked after 2 weeks.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
