During normal pregnancies, the level of HCG in the blood doubles every 2 days. There is a risk for a possible miscarriage if the HCG-levels do not increase by at least for 60% after 2 days. You must measure HCG-levels in the blood once every 2 days to draw a conclusion about the risksfor possible miscarriage. TSH, T4 and glucose data tells us nothing about the pregnancy. You can’t do anything to prevent a miscarriage if it intends to happen.
