Hello.I have a question, I did beteHcg 5 weeks after intercourse and 7 weeks after intercourse and the result is 1mlU/ml.Can I rule out pregnancy? I took the Depo prowera injection 5 weeks ago and for some time now I have had slightly enlarged breasts and thin blue veins on them,are these side effects of using this injection? I would like to add that this is my first injection, before it I took Slinda tablets.Thank you in advance for your reply.

Beta-HCG test results at 5 and 7 weeks after intercourse should be considered conclusive. The result obtained indicates that she is not pregnant, as a value of 1 mIU/ml is considered low. These tests are very sensitive and can detect even small amounts of the hormone beta-HCG, which is present in the body in the early stages of pregnancy.
When it comes to the Depo-Provera injection, you may experience some of the side effects associated with hormonal changes in your body. Breast enlargement and the appearance of blue veins on them can be one of these side effects of the drug. However, it's a good idea to consult with your doctor if you have any concerns to make sure everything is okay. If you are not able to take advantage of the advice, I am attaching a link to the online teleconsultation, e.g. via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:
