Infertility

When will the trigger be out of my system?

 

My beta is scheduled for Monday the 27th, and I'm sheduled to go out of town this weekend.  I'd hate to recieve a surprise BFN phone call from my RE nurse, so I'm thinking it's best to test prior to the morning so my beta results aren't a total surprise (AKA- so I don't loose my $hit at work). 

I had the trigger on 9/10 and back to back IUI's on 9/11 and 9/12.  I want to test when I'm sure that the trigger is out of my system, since I'd imagine seeing a BFN after a BFP would be devistating. 

Based on when I triggerd, I assume I O'd on 9/12.

  • You should wait the full 2 weeks, just to be sure, you don't want to risk a false positive...that's why then have you wait a full 2w after IUI

  • Unless you test out the trigger, which it sounds like you didn't do, you should wait at least 12 days after the trigger.  Mine are always out of my system by 10dp trigger but everyone metabolizes meds differently.

  • I voted 10-11 DPO b/c I am silly and just can't wait the full 2 weeks for the beta.  I also use the internet cheapies to test out the trigger before I test "for real".  I know this is not scientific but it still prepares me :)

    Yep. I do this too. Although I do get a secret thrill when I test at 4dpo and get a "+" pg test. Wink I don't start peeing on stuff for real until 10dpo.
