After pregnancy, women must protect themselves and regularly undergo prenatal check ups to better understand the development of the fetus. Especially in early pregnancy, timely blood routine examination is necessary. The changes in HCG levels in the blood can provide insight into the actual development of embryos. Will the HCG value decrease after pregnancy?
After pregnancy, there may be a sudden decrease in HCG values. If a decrease in HCG values is found, it is important to pay attention to the specific reasons. Check if it is caused by biochemical pregnancy. The fertilized egg is formed by the combination of sperm and egg cells, but the fertilized egg is not successfully implanted and is discharged from the body during the next menstrual period. This process is called biochemical pregnancy. After combining into a fertilized egg, there will be an increase in HCG, but the HCG value will also decrease after the fertilized egg implantation fails.
Additionally, a sudden decrease in HCG values may also be due to fetal arrest. The implantation of the fertilized egg went smoothly, but the abnormal development after implantation resulted in the embryo stopping developing or even dying. At this point, the HCG level of pregnant women will suddenly decrease until it returns to normal levels before pregnancy.
It is very important to have a normal HCG value. If a sudden decrease in HCG value is found, it cannot be ignored. It is necessary to go to the hospital for comprehensive and relevant examinations in a timely manner, and receive targeted treatment according to the specific situation. In early pregnancy, pregnant women should also pay attention to protecting themselves to avoid a decrease in HCG values.
