Is an hcg level of 872 normal for a 6 weeks 5 day pregnancy?

Answer 1

A single hCG level does not give any information about the normalcy of a pregnancy. There are a number of reasons for a lower-than-expected hCG level. Your date of concepion may be wrong, adn you may hae conceived only very recently. Or the pregnancy may not be developing normally. Follow-up with ultrasound and a repeat hCG level in two days will clarify the picture and determine what type of additional testing is needed over the next couple of weeks. If that second hCG shows a normal doubling, then your pregnancy is just much earlier than you thought. If it has not doubled, more future blood tests will be needed. If the HCG level drops, the pregnancy may be coming to a natural end. In that case, your health care provider will likely give you some options to "wait and see" or to seek treatment earlier. As long as you are well, without fever, chills, pain, you can wait and see what happens with your health care provider's followup.
