Question

Retrieval was 12/4/2020
Transfer 5dt- 12/09/2020
If I’m 3 weeks why does my dr want to BETA test 12/23/20.... wouldnt that put me at 5 weeks?

Answer

Do what you think should be fine for you and your baby. In my case, we are doing IVF because of male factor. I have had 3 chemical pregnancies even with normal embryos. I knew I was pregnant because I decided to do the pregnancy test before they suggested and because if that, they thought the DNA was damaged, then we did PGD and happened the same, the third time same and saw that progesterone was lower on the second beta but not too much so they didn’t pay attention. Now all this said, they are thinking that probably all embryos are healthy but my progesterone is not rising up and they are keeping an eye on progesterone too but if you are not in good numbers, waiting too long for a pregnancy test could not be the best because there is nothing you can do at that point, it has to be done before the days you are supposed to get your period. Am I making sense? 
Good luck and always follow your heart, this means the world to us and doctors can miss some things because they see a lot of patients.

Answer

Yes, you would be 3 weeks today.  With a fresh transfer, you have to wait at least 10 days so the trigger shot doesn't give you a false positive.

Answer

Mine did my prego test 10 days post transfer. Any earlier and they said it could be a false positive due to the trigger shot.

Answer

My beta was 8 days after my transfer.
