Hi Lawrence,
Welcome to HCM.
Once the beta HCG in the blood goes down below the detection level, then there is nothing to worry. Pregnancy is not desirable until this stage is reached.
Molar pregnancy most of the time does not lead to cancer, but as a precaution the test is done to make sure every thing is alright.
The test should be continued until it becomes Negative.
Wish you all the best.
