Hi, My wife is currently 6 weeks 1 day pregnant and started to see blood spotting and bleeding. We are suspecting it could be the symptom for ectopic pregnancy. We have taken blood test on 07/04/2013 and the HCG level is 381. Could this be a symptom for Ectopic Pregnancy. Please reply.. We are worried.. My email address is YYYY@YYYY
Hello Thanks for your query. For 6 weeks of pregnancy, your B HCG is definitely low. Yes, it could be a sign of ectopic pregnancy. It could also mean a failing pregnancy, or a missed abortion as it is called. Please go for a transvaginal ultrasound which will easily differentiate the two. Take care.
