I have PCOS and I had my first IUI 2 weeks ago (8/2). I used Follistim to ovulate and the Ovidrel trigger shot on Sunday night. I am also on progesterone suppositories so I haven't started a period. I got a BFN on Monday and Tuesday morning (Days 14 and 15). I have read online that some people don't get a BFP until day 18 or later. Has that happened to anyone here? Am I holding out hope for yet another failed month?

Hi! I have not really seen this happen, but I am sure it is possible. The progesterone can delay your period from starting. When does your doc want you to wait until b4 you take a blood test? My fingers are crossed for you, the craziest stuff happens with infertility.

It is possible to get late positives, my friend is one of them (pregnant naturally) My first ever positive was a very hard to see line at 16 days, and still a very yet noticeable line at 18 days, this was after IVF. I hope by now you know if it worked or not, and am hoping for your positive test. If it wasn't, do not give up hope. The road it tough and exhausting, and sometimes you just want to stop. Take a break, but don't give up. GL to you!
I agree with previous responses ! It's possible- not as likely obviously . I think in most of the cases of late positives it's because people are not sure when exactly they ovulated . The only times I tested before my betas was like super early and then I would stop testing because I would drive myself crazy . Please please don't give up hope if this one is negative - statistically most don't get a BFP after the first IUI . Keep us posted ! I'm cheering for you . If this isn't the one hoping it's the next !!

Thank you all! I tested this morning at 18 days post IUI and still negative. So we are stopping the progesterone, I just reordered more Follistim and Ovidrel and am now awaiting the next cycle for our second IUI. Thank you guys again for the help and encouraging words.
