This board overrates bloodwork. A number moving is not the outcome you wanted. Not on hCG but the pattern is familiar.

Everyone here blames the drug. Half the time it is the appointment schedule, not the molecule.

Following this because I am in the same place and have no idea what to ask at the appointment.

Same here.

Baseline first.

Correct.

Careful with attribution. You changed the timing, the dose and the season. That is three variables.

Changing prescriber does not reset anything, and people discover that the hard way.
