I believe that most expectant mothers are not unfamiliar with HCG. After the menstrual cycle is delayed, it is necessary to make a judgment based on the changes in HCG. Only when the HCG value significantly increases can pregnancy be determined. Under normal circumstances, after pregnancy, HCG will continue to increase and decrease, which is abnormal. So why does HCG value keep decreasing?
In the early stages of pregnancy, the HCG value should double, and if it continues to decline, it should be considered as the cause of ectopic pregnancy. The level of HCG will gradually increase with the continuous development of the gestational sac, and when the development of the gestational sac is restricted, there will be a decrease in HCG. The uterus is the best place for the development of the gestational sac. If the gestational sac implants outside the uterus, its development status will definitely be poor, so the HCG level will continue to decrease.
If it is a normal intrauterine pregnancy, the continuous decrease in HCG may be caused by poor development of the gestational sac, such as chromosomal abnormalities, or if the pregnant woman is infected with a certain virus, which can lead to abnormal development of the gestational sac, resulting in a decrease in HCG. It is recommended that pregnant women go to the hospital for ultrasound examination in a timely manner to understand the developmental status of the embryo.
In short, a decrease in HCG is a bad sign. After such a phenomenon occurs, pregnant women must pay attention and actively go to the hospital to investigate the cause of the decrease in HCG. If there are problems with the development of the embryo, timely intervention and treatment are necessary. If treatment is not possible, the pregnancy can only be terminated in a timely manner.
