Hello ma'am and welcome.

HCG levels are very important to help sustain pregnsncy and yours seem to be slightly low. But do not worry, some times these levels can be low in the early stages and rise later. But the levels you have do indicate some problems with pregnancy, either one that may not sustain itself with these hCG levels or one that is not in the normal location (i.e. an ectopic pregnancy).

Wait for a while and report for an ultrasound examination to confirm/rule out ectopic and then help to direct the way forward.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
