Beta HCG is low
I have irregular periods. My usual cycle length is 43 days. My prolactin level is high. Currently it's 37.8.
My last period day was July 8th. I haven't got my Periods since last 57 days. I have few pregnancy symptoms as well.
We did a beta HCG and prolactin test today (2/9) and the values are:
Prolactin: 37.85
Beta HCG: 1.20
Question: Why I have pregnancy symptom and HCG is low? Will it take more time increase HCG in blood? Is it possible to be pregnant in this case?
