Question 1

After seven days of a missed period, is the beta HCG test report 100 percent accurate? Is fasting required for a beta HCG test?

Question 2

I missed my date before last month it was on 14th of September and I took a urine test at home for pregnancy. There was a weak pink line but on 28th September I had brown spotting and my period started on 30th September. Again my date was on 29th of October but I noticed a very small brown spotting on 21st of October. Then I immediately visited a gynecologist on 23rd October and she put me on the following drugs fol xt, ecosprin 75, and duphaston 10 mg and asked me to come two days after I missed my period. I visited her again on 1st of November because I missed my date on 29th of October. She wrote a urine pregnancy test in which I got a positive report and I told her about my lower abdomen and lower back pain on even slightest strain or standing. Then she put me on the following drugs fol xt, ecosprin 75, duphaston 10 mg, susten sr 300 mg and also gave a progesterone 200 mg injection. She told me to use the above medicines for 20 days and to be completely in rest for these 20 days. Now what is my exact situation?

Question 3

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.

I am 26 years old. It has been 62 days since my last period, and I am trying to conceive, but my urine pregnancy test shows negative. I am worried. For the past week, I have been experiencing stomach burns and slight changes in my body condition. What could be the reason?

62 day delay + negative urine test. Do Serum Beta hCG to confirm pregnancy. If negative, could be hormonal/PCOS. Stomach burn may be acidity, hydrate, eat small meals. Consult gynecologist if planning pregnancy.
