Hello.
Thanks for posting your query.
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) levels rise rapidly after conception and double every 2-3 days. There is wide variation on the normal range of hCG.
The normal levels of hCG, 3 weeks after your LMP (last menstrual period) is 5-50 mIU/ml. Levels peak at about 12 weeks of pregnancy and reach about 300,000 mIU/ml .so this way u can see whether u r pregnant or not.
I hope, I have answered your query. Please accept my answer in case you have no follow up queries.
