An Unscientific Trigger Poll

Excitedtostart

Since I know we're all special snowflakes, I thought I would poll the group and and see how long the trigger stayed in your body. 

Did you test it out and have it fade at 9 dpo/iui/et? 10? 14? 

I didn't think I could handle seeing a positive test turn negative over a few days, so I didn't test it out. Now I wish I had as I'm driving myself batty over phantom symptoms. I'm 9dpiui today.

I tested mine out the last time. At 10dpIUI, it was back to negative. But at 11dpIUI, it was faintly positive again, so I thought I was pregnant.  I was not pregnant. So testing out the trigger isn't always a good thing to do. Depending on the concentration of your urine, you could get a negative, but the next morning, you might see a positive again.

With my next IUI, I will not take any tests until at least 12-14dpIUI.

I tested mine out last cycle, and it was gone by 7dpIUI.

The first cycle that I used a trigger I planned to test it out so I started 6 days after I did the shot (5 dpo).  I totally expected to see a positive but it was already out of my system and the test was negative.  So I'm never doing that again!  Only a few more days for you- hang in there!

It might depend which medication you use.  I triggered with HCG and I never got a positive result from it (started testing 3 dpo).

I tested out the trigger the first two IUIs and it was out of my system by 7dpIUI but I always wonder if I metabolize things fast due to my diabetes.

Was out of my system at 5dpt

Well sh!t, now I'm all "maybe I should stop peeing on these sticks!" I'm 6 days past trigger and still testing positive. This is my first trigger so I'll report back after I know the end result.

Apparently, I'm a slow burned because it usually takes me a good 11 days post trigger for it to be out, sometimes 12.

Obvious faint positive at 11 days past trigger, negative at 12 days past.

First cycle - received a positive twelve days past trigger, negative thirteen days past trigger.

Second cycle - received a positive thirteen days past trigger, negative fourteen days.

Which is why I'm never doing that whole shebang ever again.  Those pee sticks are way too sensitive for their own good.

It fluxes by a day but the latest was 12dpt

I'm no help. I had a + at 7dpt, - at 8dpt, and started getting consistent + at 8dpt.

Mine shows faintly positive on the wondfos for 15dpt, at which point I usually get AF and stop testing. My advice is not to trust any bfps after a trigger unless it is past 10dpo and they get pretty dark.

Sometimes I hate how sensitive those tests are. GL!

Last cycle I tested at 4dpt, 6dpt, and 8dpt... the line was really light at 6dpt and was completely gone at 8dpt.  I didn't test again after that so not sure if it showed back up again.
