hi:

I just found out that my hcg levels are at 197...10 days post transfer (2 blasts..14 days post retrieval)...could this mean that i am carrying twins...since normal levels this ealry in pregnancy are usually between 50-100???
I wrote you on monday regarding the hpt results coming out positive after only 5 days post transfer and today i finally took the blood test..results are are 197.

what is your opiniion on the twin factor???
thanks
keren

A value of 197 on Day 14 post retrieval could be either a singleton pregnancy or twins. Unfortunately its not very clear. I'm afraid you'll have wait for the ultrasound examine in a couple of weeks.
