I'm sure this has been asked here before, but I'll do it again!

So, I miscarried a few weeks ago and I've been going in to get my HCG levels checked every week. The nurse called me back today and said that my levels are at 3 and I don't need to come in anymore. I was just curious about ovulating when you still have HCG in your system. Is it possible? I am having ovulation symptoms right now, but I don't know if your body will even release an egg if it detects HCG.

We're not trying this cycle, but I'd still like to know if I could really be ovulating or if it's in my imagination.

I am so sorry for your loss... But with levels that low... you should be at 0 anytime .. You might even be there now. As for Ovulating.. you can O anytime after your numbers reach 0... most likely in 2 weeks.. Your cycles can be a little screwy... and might take a few months to return to normal... If you have any questions please ask... and please stick around untill you are ready to TTCAL.. You are welcomed to jump in.. HUGS

I am so sorry for your loss. Welcome to the board .
I agree with Kary. Everyone is so different but it is possible.

After my loss, I was getting my HCG monitored weekly because it took longer than usual to drop. My Dr. said I wouldn't ovulate until after my HCG was at baseline (which he considered to be less than 2) or I might not ovulate at all and just get my period. He was wrong, and I did ovulate when my HCG was still 7 (got positive OPKs before a temp rise, and AF came at my normal LP length). So if you feel like you might be ovulating, you very well could be.
