If they were 55 on Tuesday, and 78 on Wednesday, is that a good rise in the levels after just 24 hours? I am also wondering, I see a lot of posts with levels much higher than 78 at 5 weeks. Is there much put into the level itself, or just the fact of whether or not they double? I would also like to know, Would a sonogram at 5 weeks show anything, or is it dependent on the Hcg Levels? I am quite certain of my dates as I charted them faithfully this cycle. My LMP was on 5/25. Thank you very much for you help. When would you recommend having another HCG? Again, thank you.
