Why do some women have low hcg levels than
other women? I've taken 4 hpt and all
came out negative, yet, for some reason I
want to believe I am pregnant.
I'll do some research, but just wanted to
know who else tested negative on several
occassions and then found out they were
actually pregnant after visiting the
doctors office?
Thanks, for sharing your stories!

The hcg levels vary in women for different
reasons. In some cases they are low and
eventually increase. Sometimes in early
pregnancy the numbers are low enough that
a hpt cannot detect this hormone to give
you a positive result. It doesn't always
mean that you are carring to eventually
miscarry. Doctors order a series of
blood work to determine hcg levels and
progesterone levels(this one carries the
baby to full term) to see one if there is
a pregnancy and two to see if the pregancy
can be carried along. There are so many
scientific reasons why. Your best bet is
to see a healthcare professional. Good
luck

Lisa-didn;t you post in another one that
you got your period? If yes and your
tests keep coming out neg then you're not
pregnant right now.
