| I'm being antsy about taking a HPT following an IUI on 9/19. Did a 250mg Ovidrel trigger shot on 9/18. Beta is not until 10/4. The nurse who did the IUI said if I wanted to test at home, she recommended waiting until 12 days post IUI. That's Sunday 10/1. I've managed to hold myself off on testing so far, but would it hurt to do it tomorrow, 9/30 instead? The Ovidrel should be out of my system by this point, yes? |

| I tested out the trigger (Ovidrel) several times and never had it persist in my system beyond 7-8 days. I know other women have had different experiences, though. |

| Hold off! My friend thought you had positives for several cycles because she tested around days 13 and 14, but the trigger seemed to stay in her for 15 days. |

You should have bought cheap tests and tested the trigger.
in your situation I would test immediately and then see if the line gets darker. |

| Do it tomorrow. It will be out by then. Good luck! |

| OP here. Well it's negative so at a minimum the Ovidrel is out. Hopefully it's just too early and it's not really negative. |

| This early you have to do it first thing in the am with undiluted urine. |

honestly...what's the point? If it's positive, you won't be able to be absolutely sure it really is...and then you'll be no better off than you are now. You'll just torture yourself more. Just my 2 cents!
I didn't test mine out, but I tested positive 10dpo, negative on 12dpo, and then positive 14dpo. I dunno; honestly you'd probably get an accurate result tomorrow but can't be sure; I think I'd try to make myself wait personally |

| When i did my second (successful) IVF i tested out the trigger. Was totally gone by 8dpo. Reappeared at 10dpo (fresh 3 day transfer to 7dp3dt). My clinic let me come in on 11dpo for a beta since I got a positive and it was 95. Repeat at 13dpo was 235. I can't believe places make people wait. |

I also tested out the trigger, both times full 14 days... it does vary by person. |

| OP here. Ugh, still negatives. Beta tomorrow, expecting the BFNs to be confirmed. :/ |
