Hi, I got a positive pregnancy test, which I also confirmed with an HCG blood test. In that test, my values were 779 and 1387, taken a day apart. I am having red brown discharge with light cramps. When I went to the doctor, she suggested a hormone injection and Miprogen tablet for two weeks. Will this situation settle or is there any risk of complication? Please suggest.

Your hCG is rising, though slowly. Mild cramping and brown discharge in early pregnancy is common. Hormone injection and Miprogen (progesterone) help support pregnancy. Rest well, avoid physical exertion, and repeat scan as advised. Situation may settle stay positive.

My last period was on 22nd July, and my pregnancy test is positive. An ultrasound shows a small gestational sac, but no cardiac activity is detected yet. How long should we wait for cardiac activity to appear, or could this indicate another issue? Please advise.

Can a beta HCG blood report be wrong in early pregnancy? Because my cycle length is 40 to 45 days. I got my beta HCG test done after a 1 day delay as per my cycle and the report came negative.
