If I'm not pregnant, will I get my period before my beta test on day 14?

Anonymous
I had IUI on valentines day, and although the odds are stacked against us (we converted from IVF after I wasn't producing enough large follicles to warrant ER), I am 10 days into my 2ww and haven't gotten my period. I hate the uncertainty of not knowing, and I don't want to be too optimistic so I'm not devestated if the beta reveals that I'm not pregnant, but I figured I would have gotten my period by now if I wasn't.... I'm taking endometrin, so I don't know if that is keeping me from starting my period. I did take 2 hpts last week on thurs (7 days in) and both were BFN... any personal experiences to lend insight one way or the other?

7dpiui was way too early to test, but I know all too well the urge to POAS.

The Endometrin will help keep AF away for the most part; I say most part, because it kept my AF from coming while on it until 18dpt, but I had started spotting at 16 dpt.

If you must POAS again, try to hold out until Tuesday when you are 12dpiui. GL!

I never did IUI, but 3 times after IVF I got my period right on schedule at 7-9 days post transfer. But I have a short cycle so maybe your timing would be different.

It's too early!

Pee on a stick Tuesday morning. You'll be 12dpo, and if you're pregnant, it's likely to show up. Typically your period shows up 13-14 dpo.

Good luck!

Op here- thanks y'all. I am thinking about calling and rescheduling my beta for 2/28 which is 14 days.... But maybe I'll just use that last pet I've been holding onto.

Did this happen to you with progesterone?

I did one clomid cycle with progesterone and didn't bleed until off of it. This cycle (IVF) I started bleeding at 9dp5dt which really suprised me. It turned out to be a chemical so maybe that leads to break through bleeding?

I've had 4 iui's (2 before I got preg with my son and just had my second trying to have another) and I never bled before stopping progesterone after a negative beta. Good luck! I'm also in my 2ww

I have had cycles where i did and others where i didn't...so I don't think you can rely on getting your period before your beta as being an indicator of a BFN. Progesterone supplements can definitely delay the arrival of AF.

That said, it's not out of the question that you're pregnant even if you have negative HPTs so far...so fingers crossed!

I got a negative beta on 2/19 and I still haven't gotten my period as of today. I have no idea what is going on. My last progesterone shot was 2/18. I have also done the HPT just to check and it was negative as well. It has never taken this long to get a period after a negative beta.

PP - I have done several IVFs and FETs. Usually my period would start within a couple of days after stopping progesterone, but after one of the FETs it took a couple of weeks. Not sure why. It sucks.

I don't get AF while on progesterone support. It takes three days of not being on progesterone for AF to show up.
