23 year old female here. My hcg in october last year was 8, and i'm obviously not pregnant now, does that mean I was pregnant? Also my second question is what's the normal hcg in virgin women? Notes to know: I have pcos, I take birth controls for it, also I take lamotrigine for bipolar now. I heard medication raise levels of hcg so the medication I used to take before hcg test other than lamotrigine and birth control, was seroquel for 3 days, gabapeptine for one week, seroxat for almost a month in july 2020, and an anxiety medication called lexotonil. Please let me know i'm really scared, i'm in a country where they'd kill me if they know I had sex outside of marriage.

These drugs can increase hcg slightly. Normal levels are between 0.02-0.08. If you are taking birth control pills regularly without missing any dose, you are protected and can continue the same.
