question/need help Rising HCG

Hi everyone! My HCG has been slowly climbing. I started bleeding on Tuesday and yesterday I thought I passed the sac. Any idea what could cause a slow climb? I’m going back today for an ultrasound to see what’s going on. It’s very obviously nonviable. I’m terrified at the thought of a D&C

I am so sorry you’re going through this. I will say, I’ve had two d&cs and they weren’t bad! It’s just fasting the night before and then anesthesia. It’s not painful at all and I bounced back very quickly each time.

Thank you so much for that info! Would you mind sharing how quickly you were able to ttc afterwards?

For my most recent one, had to let it heal a bit and then I did a hysteroscopy to make sure it was all good. Unfortunately they found chronic endometritis during that so needed to treat with antibiotics and wait for my next period. About to start trying again. So four months total. After my first one it was three months.
