There is two possibilities.. It is a new pregnancy..... or there is retained product.. retained product can cause your lvls to drop slower... 6800 is pretty high still so it could very much be a new pregnancy..


When I had retained product, i was testing positive but my lvls were stuck around 50... they started off at 5000 before my d&c..

I guess it's different for everyone. I was around 7 weeks when I had a m/c. Did a d&c. One week later my level dropped to negative.

Seriously, I think you should call your doctor and tell them that you got a positive test and haven't had a period yet.  The only way to know if it's a new pregnancy is to get your blood drawn and your hcg levels checked every 48 hrs to see if they're doubling.  I had a d&c on sept 13th, I got my period again 5 or 6 weeks later.  Depending how far along you were it could take up to 6 wks for the hcg to get out of your system.  Good luck!
