Hi,
It is very sad that you had an unwelcome outcome of your pregnancy. The cause of that miscarriage should be thoroughly evaluated in order to prevent future complications. There is not much to be worried about the duration of bleeding so long as they are regular and without any further complaint. The beta-hCG level is normal. You should see a specialist and go through a series of investigations that could include a trans-vaginal sonogram, complete hormonal profile and tests of tubal patency. Urinary infection has to be cleared before attempt at conception is contemplated as this can lead to infertility. Please see your doctor for further suggestions. Take care.
