Hello. I have had one previous ectopic pregnancy. I am now 4 weeks 5 days pregnant (from my last menstrual period on 12/17).
1/8 – I had my first blood test. They were 9000 HcG, 8.5 progesterone. My doctor put me on Prometrium 200mg 1x per day.
On 1/10 – levels were 13000 Hcg and 13.0 progesterone. The doctor was concerned that my Hcg did not double, and sent me for a pelvic and transvaginal ultrasound. Neither ultrasound showed anything, nothing in my uterus or tubes.
On 1/15 – levels at 24000 Hcg and 16.8 progesterone.
On 1/16-I was sent for another round of ultrasounds, again, NOTHING seen in uterus or tubes.
1/17- levels at 28000 HcG and 15.0 progesterone.
My question is this. My doctor seems very convinced that this is an ectopic pregnancy, since my HcG is very slow rising yet very high, and now my progesterone dropped. I have had some mild constipation and cramping, but no major pains, no bleeding at all. They keep advising me to just wait (unless I bleed or have pain), but I am very scared I am going to have a tubal rupture if I wait too long. What should I do?
