after miscarriage & HCG numbers
how long after your miscarriage/d&C did your HCG number go back to negative.
I had a D&C a week ago. Just tested today and number is still at 880...

Re: after miscarriage & HCG numbers
I am so sorry for your loss. 
I am not sure of the exact date but it took a good 3+ weeks (my HCG was 195k when I had my D&C). I got AF a little over 5 weeks after the D&C.

Re: after miscarriage & HCG numbers
I'm so sorry you're going through this
For me, it was 4/5 weeks and I got my period back at that time too. I was having blood tests every other day, so the wait was really excruciating.

Re: after miscarriage & HCG numbers
I'm so sorry for your loss. I know how that feels, to just want to be down to zero and be able to move forward. I've had numerous losses, but never a D&C so I can't really answer this. I do know, however, that after I passed the sac it still did take a few weeks. It definitely took longer when the numbers were higher though. Hang in there. It will go back down, sometimes it just takes a while.

Re: after miscarriage & HCG numbers
Is it coming down at all, how many times have they checked? Also what was it when you had the D&C?
Mine came down pretty fast - I'd say within 3-4 weeks. I had started miscarrying on my own and then had the D&C.
With my ectopic that I had surgery for they dropped fast too.
Everyones body deals with it differently though. One of my friends took several months to drop to zero and get her period. Ughh. hang in there!

after miscarriage & HCG numbers
never had a d&c, but I took methotrexate when my levels were around 1000. I had the injection in the beginning of July, and my levels went down in half every week. I didn't get my first AF until the very last week in August. It took around 6 weeks to go all the way down to 0, then another 2 weeks for AF to show
my first mc happened naturally, and I went down to 0 in less than a week. It varies every time unfortunately. It's hard to pinpoint when they will be 0, but I hope it happens quickly for you :(

Re: after miscarriage & HCG numbers
Waiting for my HCG level to drop was torture!
I had a D&C in March at 8 weeks.
I was able to conceive in July. It felt like an eternity waiting to try again but your body needs time to heal.
At first my numbers dropped drastically and then slowed down. Just be patient and know it'll happen.

Re: after miscarriage & HCG numbers
It took me about five weeks for my HCG to return to 0 after my eight week miscarriage back in May. We are still TTC five months later, so we are having no luck. It is so incredibly heartbreaking and frustrating! I'm so sorry you are going through this!
