Your Questions About Natural Pregnancy Test

Carol asks…

I dont know if im pregnant, and tomorrow’s 4-20..?

Tomorrows 4-20. I have no way of getting a pregnancy test until like the begining of next month, and I want to know if smoking weed could hurt the baby (if there is one). I mean its all natural right? And if it could, how much..? I mean come on! Tomorrows like. National weed day. I haven’t smoked anything in the past month because of the possibility. But… I mean 4-20..

WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU.

Mary asks…

how long will I bleed & how long until not pregnant test after ectopic?

I had an ectopic pregnancy this month. They gave me the shots to dissolve the pregnancy LAST Friday. I started bleeding Sunday and have been bleeding like a period since. My periods are generally light and only last 4 days. I was told this would be heavier and longer, which it is, and isnt anything I feel concerned about, BUT how long does a women typically bleed after these shots and events?

Also, my BETA at the time of the shot (to dissolve the pregnancy) was 2774. I went back the next Tuesday and it was 2160. I went back Friday again and am awaiting the results of that BETA tomorrow. I see the dr. tomorrow.

How long will it take my BETA to reduce back to 0-5??

Im ready for this to be over, so I can have a natural cycle so I can do an HSG test, so we can get the ‘green light’ to TTC again. Thanks!

Michelle answers:

There’s no telling for sure how long it will take, every woman is different. But they say it generally takes up to 10 days for the pregnancy hormone to leave your body after you have a miscarriage.

Lisa asks…

For those who have used progesterone cream?

Did you get nausea while on it? I used regular progesterone cream (synthetic) before and didn’t get nausea but this month I am using natural progesterone cream and have been experiencing a light nausea for the last 3 days. I am 10DPO and am wondering if it could be just a side effect or maybe (hopefully) a symptom of pregnancy. I’m too scared to test until I am actually late because I have been trying for soooo long. Just wondering if anyone else has had nausea while on the cream and not been preggo. Thanks!

Michelle answers:

Yes yes yes, and the worst thing about the natural progesterone cream is that none of the side effects are on the packaging. I had to look it up online; I had no idea that it can make you feel faint, and in my case, I was sleeping until 2:30pm (having gone to bed at 10pm — crazy!) Unfortunately, the natural cream is supposed to be much better for you than the synthetic stuff. But having said all that, you might be pregnant … If you already did 2 months of Prog. And no nausea, then maybe this is your lucky month … Keep us all posted, OK?! Xoxoxo

Robert asks…

When will the test show negative?

So Im pretty sure I am having a very early natural miscarriage (4 weeks 2 days along)…

It’s more emotionally painful than physically and I do not plan on seeing a doctor as it is so early and is not problematic…

But inside I am still hoping that maybe this is just some kind of “period” during pregnancy and maybe my little guy will hold on… But then again I don’t want to hold onto false hope either…

So I started cramping and bleeding (with tissue) last night and still am today (cramping very mild)… But my question is, if I take a test to see if I in fact lost the pregnancy, how long will it take to get a negative? I don’t want to test too soon and get a positive…

I know this is not just a late period, I had 3 positive hpts and symptoms..

Michelle answers:

So sorry to hear that you are going through this. Sounds like a chemical pregnancy to me, where you get your period a few days to a week late, after a positive test. Usually, with a chemical pregnancy, the hCG levels return to normal pretty quickly. I knew one woman to get a positive HPT, start her period a couple days later, got a blood test the same day her bleeding started and the levels were 0 at that time. A big downside to having access to home tests that are so sensitive they can pick up pregnancy hormones before you even miss your period is the fact that they catch a lot of pregnancies that just aren’t going to make it. I would test in about a week, that way you have time for all the hormone to leave your body if it is truly a chemical pregnancy. So sorry and lots of luck and positive thoughts coming your way.
