TTC after 35

HPT Question

Ladies...I have had two trigger shots in the last xxx months and NEVER test positive on HPT so I can't test out the trigger.  I know there are people who get neg when they are many weeks PG so am I one of the lucky people not to be able to do an HPT?  I am on progesterone so I can't depend on my temp.  My RE wants me to test at home first and I think I should tell him I need to go directly into the blood test...yes??? It seems like a very simple question but I need someone to tell me...duh, yes!

    Good luck!  Do you know why HPTs don't work for you?  I've never heard of that!

  • @Davie813‌ I have no idea but it figures since I have like 10 hpts! I just thought it was a fluke the first round but after this round I knew I was one of the lucky people :)

  • Go for the blood test. My SIL can't turn a urine test either. All three of you pregnancies had to be confirmed with blood because she never got a positive HPT.
    Good luck!!!

    It is very uncommon but I believe there are people who don't metabolize HCG in their urine.

  • Good luck! My friend's mom couldn't turn one positive at 9 months pregnant, it was kind of a running joke.

    Are you waiting until 8/6 or going in sooner?
  • @hooligans4 & @kindershlitz -  It is really strange not to get the stick + after the trigger!  8/06 will be 12 dpiui and my RE wants that to be the test date.

    @tlc35 - Thanks for the info I really didn't understand how it would be possible esp since I can get + OPKs
