Hi, I am 4 weeks pregnant (since lmp) and my hcg was measured at 158 and my progesterone is 42. Are those numbers a little high for this early in the pregnancy? If so, what could elevated numbers like this mean?

Thanks

Theres no telling this early in pregnancy...

Later on, around 8 weeks, if they are still high, normally the ob/gyn will look for twins or possibly other problems.
