What is a normal hCG level at 4 weeks?
Typical hCG Results 4 weeks: 5 – 426 mIU/ml. 5 weeks: 18 – 7,340 mIU/ml. 6 weeks: 1,080 – 56,500 mIU/ml. 7 – 8 weeks: 7, 650 – 229,000 mIU/ml.
What is a good first Beta hCG level?
An hCG level of less than 5 mIU/mL is considered negative for pregnancy, and anything above 25 mIU/mL is considered positive for pregnancy. An hCG level between 6 and 24 mIU/mL is considered a grey area, and you’ll likely need to be retested to see if your levels rise to confirm a pregnancy.
How is beta hCG calculated?
The beta hCG levels are also measured using a test known as quantitative hCG testing. This test measures the quantity of hCG in your urine in terms of mIU/mL or IU/L. The indeterminate value represents the grey area. The beta hCG levels will be tested multiple times during the pregnancy to confirm a healthy pregnancy.
At what hCG level will I miscarry?
When you miscarry (and also anytime you give birth), your body no longer produces hCG. Your levels will ultimately go back to 0 mIU/mL. In fact, anything less than 5 mIU/mL is “negative,” so effectively, 1 to 4 mIU/mL is also considered “zero” by doctors.
What should hCG be at 6 weeks?
Standard hCG levels
| Pregnancy week | Standard hCG range |
|---|---|
| 6 weeks | 1,080–56,500 mIU/mL |
| 7–8 weeks | 7,650–229,000 mIU/mL |
| 9–12 weeks | 25,700–288,000 mIU/mL |
| 13–16 weeks | 13,300–254,000 mIU/mL |
How much should hCG increase at 5 weeks?

Does a high hCG level mean a strong pregnancy?
If you are pregnant, very high levels of hCG can mean a multiple pregnancy (such as twins or triplets). It can also mean a molar pregnancy or Down syndrome. You may also be further along in an early pregnancy than you thought, based on your last menstrual period.
How much should hCG double in 2 days?
In most normal pregnancies at an hCG level below 1,200 mIU/ml, the hCG usually doubles every 48-72 hours. At levels below 6,000 mIU/ml, the hCG levels normally increase by at least 60% every 2-3 days. A rise of at least 35% over 48 hours can still be considered normal.
How do I calculate my hCG level?
Percentage difference = Absolute difference / First β-hCG level x 100. Doubling time = Time between tests in hours / log2 (Second β-hCG level / First β-hCG level) One-day increase = (2(24 / Doubling time in hours) – 1) x 100. Two-day increase = (2(48 / Doubling time in hours) – 1) x 100.
What should hCG level be at 5 weeks?
