Slow rising HCG. Please share your story.

Hi, does anyone have any stories(happy or sad) to share about their slow rising hcg?

My hcg rose 700s to 1100s… that’s 64% it did not double (100%)

Doctor wants me to start on progesterone even though we didn’t rule out ectopic. I heard that’s a contradiction. I messaged them for tvus. Im 5 week 2 days. Did anyone see anything on their ultrasound around this time?
