Hi, I am 26 years old and I am pregnant for couple of weeks. I read a lot about pregnancy and importance of following hcg concentration in the blood during first trimester. I would like to know how should hcg levels be increasing? I hope someone will share experiences about this subject with me.
Hi, hcg is hormone which shows developing of pregnancy especially in the first trimester. This hormone has very important role in preventing menstruation. Level of hcg usually doubles every couple of days and it is pretty good sign that pregnancy is developing well. However if there is stop or decreasing of hcg level that is not reason for panic and you would visit your doctor to make ultra sound examination.
