    Do high beta numbers mean multiples ?

    So I just got my first beta numbers at 14 dpo and they were at 310.
    Does anyone know if high numbers of beta correlates with multiples?
    I took 100 mg clomid and I had 3 follicles ( 21.5, 18, 19) so that's why I'm asking and a little concerned.

    Can people with either singletons or twins please share their beta numbers with me ?

    Thank you

    That's a little high but not outrageous. In HT, we've seen really high betas turn out to be just one. Sometimes crazy doubling time can mean multiples but I don't think there's any way to know until u/s.

    Occasionally but there have been many many more cases where high betas were singletons.

    My beta # 2 at 16dpo is 610 and my progesterone is 68.
    My RE did warn me that I might be looking at twins. I'm kinda freaking out.

    I have seen multiple starting betas at 700+ at 10dpt and the norm is 100 with a single baby. I really don't think beta numbers tell you that much and your doubling time is normal and with multiples, that is where in HT we sometimes see a crazy jump.

    You did have three mature follicles though so it could be 1,2 or 3. Good luck!

    They say that to everyone. I don't know why they do, but they do. I think they just like to mess with people's minds. They see kajillions more people than we do and have to know that betas do not always or even USUALLY indicate twins. Most people find out at an ultrasound and not from their betas.
