I had a really high temp. I went back to a and e and they did another scan and found retained tissue. Sorry I are going through this 💔

You need to keep testing your HG levels and if they do not go to negative within 3 weeks ring the early pregnancy unit!
Sorry for your loss

I went back 10 days after my first round of medical management, and the bleeding was still like a period type flow- even though I had been told to expect to bleed for a couple of weeks, the sonographer was surprised when I explained what the amount of bleeding was like. My tests had faded but were still positive. Then I was given a second round of medication and told to return in another 10 days. By then, I was barely spotting and my tests were really, really faint- I assumed all was fine as it still hadn’t been 3 weeks (when they told me I should test negative). But I still had a piece of retained tissue, so needed surgery after that to remove it.

I found out when I went back after 2 weeks, it showed up on the scan. They sent me home and said it should pass within the next 2 weeks. Then do a pregnancy test, if it is positive, then come back.

I was bleeding heavily still 3 weeks after medical management, early pregnancy unit called me back in for a scan and bloods, scan showed retained tissue along with raised hcg levels still. Had a second lot of pessaries and I’m back in on Friday for another scan to follow up.
