How To Improve HCG Levels During Pregnancy?
HI i am 31 year old currently staying in US, i am currently pregnant (5 wks) but my hcg levels are not rising well and my doctor is concerned about impending miscarriage. I had a prior missed miscarriage at 7 wks back in 2012 and later had D and C which resulted in moderate scarring in the uterus. This was corrected in 2013 and since them i am scar free. I would like to know the reason for my miscarriages.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
At 5 weeks of pregnancy the decrease in HCG levels is suggestive of an impending miscarriage. Increasing the hcg levels by external supplementation will not help.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
