TTC after 35

I cheated

Ok so I had my first round with injectables and iui. My RE also had me do a booster(ovidrel) 7 days post iui. I was supposed to come in and test 18 dpiui if no period. I started testing on day 6 post booster and have gotten positives everyday. I am an ER nurse and had one of the ER docs write me a script on Monday and had my beta done (8dp ovidrel) and it was 145. I then did it on Wednesday and it was 172(10dp ovidrel).. Told my RE and he said they don't like to test that early cause early beta numbers can be 'tricky' and I may still have booster in my system. Went in for my first 'official' beta yesterday(day 12povidrel booster) and it was 137 with progesterone 61. It was a different lab. Thoughts anyone? I was dx with DOR with an amh of 0.56 and FSH of 14.8. I'm 40' started acu immediately after finding that out and switched RE cause he was negative about results. I had 5 follicles measuring 16-20 2 day before back to back iuis.

  • I haven't been in your situation, but I do understand that being consistent with the labs is important.

    When is your next beta? Unfortunatley I think only time will tell.

  • Loading the player...
  • My next beta is Monday. So I need to at least double by then!
  • I'm a little confused. You took your trigger (Ovidrel) twice in the same cycle? I'm not familiar with the protocol. Why does your RE have you doing this?

  • All I can say is it's probably best to wait and follow your doctor's instructions for testing, rather than driving yourself crazy with early testing and ambiguous results you don't even trust anyways.
