When can you test?

leamide · January 2016

My hubby and I have been TTC for over 2 years. We finally got into a good doctor to help us. I did my first round of clomid at the beginning of January. I had an ultrasound a week after because I was having pain. I had 5 large follicles and needed to wait for ovulation. I ovulated and had some spotting. A week later my boons are hurting and I have been a little crampy. When can we take a pregnancy test to see if we are pregnant or not? My monthly is due next week.
Thanks

I've got no experience with Clomid or any other fertility medication, but I assume it's the same as any other cycle. Waiting until your expected period is best, some claim to get BFP around 10 dpo, but there is still something like a 60% chance of a false negative if you are pregnant. Now, I know that that is the rule, but I myself can't help by buying a box and testing at 12 dpo. I haven't gotten a positive yet, but the rate of accuracy is supposed to be something like 87%! Good Luck and I hope you get your rainbow baby!!

The only way to really know that it's a true negative is to wait until 14dpo to test. You can be pregnant and still get a negative on 13dpo, and then turn it positive on 14dpo.
