Third-Party Reproduction

How many days after DE transfer do you test?

I haven't had embryo transfer yet, but hoping to do a fresh transfer in mid-March. I figure since the embryo develops before it is implanted, you start making HCG fairly soon after that? I'm just thinking about the future and wondering when I will know. All seems unknown right now! Thanks!

Re: How many days after DE transfer do you test?

  • When I found out exactly when retrieval is, I google IVF Due Date Calculator.  The first listing is the one that I select, IVF.ca.duedate, or something.  It lists when your due date is, but also when implantation is complete.  I usually POAS the day that implantation is complete, BFP or until Beta.  GL with your transfer!

  • I got my BFP (oh so faint) on 5dp5dt in the evening (transfer Tuesday, BFP Sunday). From there it got darker but never as dark as the control line. My beta was 9dp5dt and was 180 and so on.... :) Some though don't check until the day of BFP or until after, but I couldn't wait and I'm glad I knew sooner - even with the risk of it being a CP, it still felt better to know.

  • I tested 6dp3dt and got a very faint positive on a wondfo. My RE doesn't do betas until 2 weeks after transfer and I knew I'd never be able to make it that long.

  • Thanks all for your responses. This all makes sense. I will not be getting a trigger shot so I shouldn't have to wait. DW will be out of town shortly after transfer, so I'll likely try to wait until she comes back which would be 10dpt. That will be really difficult but I don't want to find out without her!

  • goody my RE told us it would take 2 weeks to know.  Me I know 2 weeks will be forever lol.  I will celebrate after the transfer by buying a case of prego tests and stare at them till I can use them.  I wonder if all the meds you ake with embryo transfer would mess up the results?
