Beta-Hcg

by Kristie__0, Sep 29, 1998 12:00AM

  My Hcg level is not at the level it should be at.  Is there a treatment
  or medicine that the doctor can prescribe for me to bring the level up
  to normalcy and help prevent me from having a miscarriage?
Dear Kristie:
hCG is the hormone secreted by a "normally developing pregnancy". It is a symptom of a problem; it is not the problem. A parallel example is when your vacuum cleaner stops picking up dirt because the bag is full. Adding suction is not answer: putting in a new bag is the solution.
There is no treatment that raises the hCG level and saves a failing pregnancy.
