View allI'm a bit worried and curious about something. I had a beta hCG test done in the 8th week and the result was 0.5 ml. Plus, my ultrasound report from the 6th week looked normal. Is there any possibility of being pregnant with these results? I've done just one beta hCG test this month. Can you help clarify this?

I'm really worried because I've noticed some dark blue veins showing up on my breast, and there's been some pain too. I'm not married, but I do have a boyfriend and we're sexually active. My last period was on December 23rd, so I'm really confused about why this is happening. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?
