Brief Answer:
Beta hCG levels indicate pregnancy status
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I understand your concerns.
Following is my reply:
1) This could be biochemical pregnancy. Meaning pregnancy seen on urine test and beta hCG on blood test but not on ultrasound scan.
2) It might have got aborted or it is too early pregnancy to be detected on ultrasound scan.
3) Beta hCG levels help to follow up with raised values indicating live pregnancy or non viable pregnancy.
Let me know if you need anymore help.
Regards

Thanks for your reply doctor!
If the the beta HCG test is positive, Baby is fine? when can we observe something in uterus.
Is it too early means my last period is nov20th.As per the my last period it's 7 weeks pregnancy. Is there any possibility that sac will not be visible in 7 weeks pregnancy?
If it's aborted, what are the causes for the same. Please explain me in details..Thanks!

Brief Answer:
Sac should have been visible at 7 weeks pregnancy
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
You can see sac clearly only if beta hCG is above 5000. This should be the minimum level at 7 weeks pregnancy.
