HCG Levels During Pregnancy, Normal? Bleeding Moderately, Red. Normal?
I am 38. I am 4 wk 6 days pregnant. My hcg levels yesterday were at 33. Lastnight I started spotting brown blood after sex. This morning I have moderate bleeding and it is bright red with some quarter size clots. I have called my dr, she doesnt want to see me and said nothing can be done right now. She is going to test my hcg levels in a week. Am I miscarrying? Should I go to the er or wait the week? Should I stay off my feet ...I wait tables.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Since you are having active bleeding, you need absolute bed rest to stop the bleeding. Repeating the levels of HCG after 48 hours will be helpful in detecting the status of your pregnancy. If the bleeding continues then going to an ER is recommended.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
