Blood Work after IUI

I understand that a HPT will be fairly useless early on since I am triggering, but my doctor told me this morning that I will have blood work done on 9/1 after an 8/25 IUI.  Will they be able to see something conclusive at that point? (I'm new to this).

 Thanks in advance!

    I had blood work done about 7 days after each of my IUI's to check my progesterone level. Mine tended to be on the low side (high enough to indicate ovulation occurred) but I needed progesterone suppositories and PIO shots. HTH!

    Your RE will want to check your progesterone level 7DPO for a couple of reasons. 1.to make sure you ovulated (any level over 5 means u did) and, 2. To make sure you are producing enough progestone to support a pregnancy in case fertilization has occurred. If you're progesterone is low, the RE can give you supplements to get it up. GL!

    I'm sure that is to check your progesterone level. It isn't a pregnancy test.

    Thank you all.  I thought it was for progesterone, but wasn't sure if that was an indication of conception at all.

    This was exactly the info I needed!
