After undergoing an intrauterine insemination (IUI) procedure, it is generally recommended to wait about 14 days before taking a pregnancy test. This timeframe allows enough time for the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) to build up in your system, should conception have occurred.
If you take a test too early, you risk getting a false negative result, meaning the test may indicate that you are not pregnant even though you are. Conversely, testing after the 14-day mark increases your chances of receiving an accurate result.
It's important to remember that each person's cycle may vary, so if you have any doubts or specific conditions, consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
