What a high Beta HCG (Total) means, and common causes

A raised beta HCG confirms pregnancy in most cases. The number should roughly double every 48 hours in early pregnancy.

Common causes: Normal pregnancy, multiple pregnancy, molar pregnancy, and in non-pregnant people certain germ cell tumours.

What a low Beta HCG (Total) means, and common causes

A low or undetectable level means no pregnancy, or a pregnancy too early to detect.

Common causes: Testing too early, ectopic pregnancy where the rise is slower than expected, and miscarriage where levels fall.

Frequently asked questions

Above 25 mIU/mL is generally considered positive, with below 5 negative.

Because the rate of rise matters more than any single value. A slow rise can suggest an ectopic pregnancy, which needs urgent attention.
