[quote=Anonymous]It's no gimicky bullshit. really. SG isn't making anything off a few pennies of estrogen or progesterone. They know if they test everyone at 18 days post retrieval (then they'll get an accurate result in 98% of patients (or whatever). At 14 days post, this percentage might be 85% (or whatever..I'm throwing a number out there). I had VERY low, very slowly rising betas following IVF. If I had done a blood test at 12 days post retrieval it may have been 2 or 10. Inconclusive at best. Probably at least initially reported as negative. My betas were still really low at 18 days post ovulation and then never doubled as they were supposed to. I ended up with 3 kids from 2 IVF cycles and all 3 are athletes and A students in middle school (so they didn't end up slow physically or mentally---just started out very, very, very slow!!) Good luck! [/quote]
