HCG trigger shot fail?

Have any of you not had any response to an HCG trigger shot?

I took my shot on Sat morning, and I still haven't had a temp rise. Now, I know that temps are not 100% indicative, plus I'll need some more temps this week to see a clearer pattern, but something is telling me that this cycle was a complete bust. Just checking if it's even possible that I didn't O in response to the HCG trigger shot. My dr does not do testing to confirm O.

Re: HCG trigger shot fail?

  • Are you concerned that the shot didn't make it into your system somehow? If so, try an HPT.

    Were you testing your temp prior to doing the trigger shot? If not, you may have missed the temp shift.

    When I was worried about my first trigger shot, they let me come in to do a blood test to make sure I had enough in my system. (Administering the shot that time was a comedy of errors that included a horror movie-esque bloody scene, which made me worry that I injected it directly into a vein.... Turns out all was fine.) Would they let you if you asked? Good luck!

  • I agree with Roselln. I would try an HPT to see if it's positive. Temps can be kinda wacky sometimes. GL!

  • Thanks! I'll take a HPT tonight when I get home.

    Assuming it's +, meaning that the trigger is in my system, would it be possible for it to be in my system but for an egg not to release?

  • I am proof that the shot is not %100. My first IUI cycle ended in a BFN but AF never came on her own. RE could not understand why if I was not KU why AF didnt come after I had done the trigger. 

    New RE will do blood test to confirm O

    Ugh. That's what I'm afraid of. I'm actually in the process of breaking up with my RE...so we'll see what the new RE has to say about this.
