did my first iui cycle and the wait is honestly the hardest part. im so tempted to test early but scared of a wrong result. how many days did u wait after iui before testing? pls share ur experience, need some hope.
My fertility clinic staff strictly told me not to do home tests before day 14 because of the trigger shot hormones. They scheduled a blood Beta hCG test for me on the 14th day, which is the most reliable way. I highly suggest asking your hospital coordinator for your scheduled test date.
During this crucial waiting time after your procedure, please avoid any heavy lifting or stressful thoughts. It is best to wait for 14 days before checking so you get the correct news. Drink warm milk with almonds and keep yourself rested, beta.
I am currently on day 9 after my first IUI and the urge to test is driving me crazy! Is it true that testing too early can show a false positive because of the trigger shot? How long did you guys actually wait?
The 'two-week wait' after IUI is literally longer than a year, I swear! You should ideally wait at least 14 days before testing, otherwise the hCG trigger injection might still be in your system and give a fake positive. Don't waste your tears on early tests, wait it out!
Oh I completely panicked and tested on day 10, got a faint line, then a negative, and was a total mess! My doctor explained the trigger shot takes about 10-12 days to leave the body. I tested again on day 14 and got a real positive, so please wait for 14 days to save yourself the panic.
Try to stay calm during this waiting period, it's very hard but important. Doctors usually recommend waiting exactly 14 days after the IUI procedure for an accurate result. Sending you lots of prayers and good wishes.
