What Are The Symptoms Of Ectopic Pregnancy?
At 4.4 weeks pregnant my hcg was 1600, but no gestational sac could be seen on the transvaginal u/s. At 4.6 weeks my hcg was 3000, but no u/s was performed. Could hcg of 1600 have been still too low to see anything or is this most likely am ectopic pregnancy? Thank you for your answer!

Hello!
Thanks for your query.
The gestational sac first appears at about 4 weeks gestational age, and grows at a rate of about 1 mm a day through the 9th week of pregnancy.
Your level of HCG is increased .
You should wait for another week for TVS to determine where is located your pregnancy,is intrauterine because your gestational age is lees than your LMP,
or is extrauterine.
Take care of your self
