5w3d pregnant, HCG 172000...

[ssjad]

Today's dating ultrasound showed no Molar pregnancy, one embryo.

Any ideas about what could cause an HCG so incredibly high?

Possibly missed a baby or two.I also read that some chromosonal problems result in high hgc but don't qoute me on that.You might also just be one of those ladies who has high hgc.Anyways congrats on thw pregnancy!

I would love multiples... it would be great if there were some babies hiding in there.

I've had really high hcg in both my pregnancies. When they did bloods at 12 weeks for the downs screening it was 3x the normal with my first, and this time it was 5x the normal! Coupled with a lowish papp-a it gave me a high risk for down syndrome this time, but we had the amnio and it has come back clear. The doctors think I'm just one of these people that make a lot of hcg. They said it could indicate some placental issues further on and I might need a growth scan at 32 weeks but they arent concerned.

High hcg can usually mean multiples, chromosome abnormalities, molar pregnancy or 1 very strong determined lil bean
