for those of you that have ever "tested out" your HCG from the trigger shot.. please give me your thoughts!
I am currently on my 19th cycle ttc. I have completed 6 Failed Clomid/ovidrel cycles, 3 failed IUI's... and now am currently on my 1st cycle of follistim/ovidrel IUI.
I took the trigger shot of ovidrel on Friday October 7th (15 days ago). I had two back to back IUI's Saturday the 8th and Sunday the 9th. On Tuesday the 11th I went in for bloodwork for my progesterone level and was instructed to take another ovidrel shot to increase my levels (11 days ago).
Well instead of "testing it out" of my system, I did the dumb thing and waited until I couldn't wait any longer. I tested on Thurday the 19th with the rite aid blue dye brand and got a really super faint positive. An hour later I checked again, and there it was, a little darker. Next day, positive again, even darker. Then I switched to FRER and got a definite positive, as dark as the control line. I took another two tests since then. They are still very dark! Definitely coming up BFP.. but it's only been 11 days since my last ovidrel shot.
Basically my question is... when you test it out of your system, the lines get lighter right? Once you get a definite positive, how long does it take before it starts fading? Would it actually stay definitely positive for 2-3 days, this far past trigger?
I get my blood test tomorow, but this wait is driving me insane.
THANKS!
