I am hoping it is the "real deal." :wink: 🤞 :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2892020 Tue, 23 Jul 2019 08:35:22 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2892020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Very faint still this morning. I’m going to get a few FRERs later and give those a spin. At this point, I think it’s probably the trigger. But, still hopeful. I’m only 7 DPO today. (7 days past IUI actually) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2892006 Mon, 22 Jul 2019 21:29:30 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2892006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Fawn: @fuzzypeaches: @Kaohinani: thanks, ladies!

Will check back for your update! Crossing my fingers for you </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2891954 Mon, 22 Jul 2019 12:54:52 +0000 Kaohinani 2891954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatchAFallingStar: Incidentally, I moved your July POAS date (as well as, Paranundrum's) from the July board to the August board as most of the ladies were ready to move on from July and had abandoned the board. Please- Feel free to update us with a BFP when you are certain. :grin: :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2891950 Mon, 22 Jul 2019 12:41:41 +0000 Fawn 2891950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatchAFallingStar: That's great!!

Fingers crossed 🤞 for a true BFP! 😁👍 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2891946 Mon, 22 Jul 2019 12:32:02 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2891946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kaohinani: it was only 5,000 units this time (I’ve had 10,000 in the past), so the nurse said it’s most likely out by now.. we shall see!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2891942 Mon, 22 Jul 2019 12:19:06 +0000 Kaohinani 2891942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatchAFallingStar: It is possible it is a BFP 🤞, however, the earliest I have ever HEARD of the trigger petering out was AT 6 dpo/8 dptrigger. Mine was at 9 dpo/11 dptrigger. I would simply test again tomorrow morn to see if there is any progression then call your RE for betas. Your RE may ask you to wait until 14 dpo/16 dptrigger "just in case," so don't be alarmed. I truly hope that this is your BFP cycle. :goodluck: 🤞 :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2891941 Mon, 22 Jul 2019 12:17:41 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2891941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Fawn: I called and the nurse said the trigger would probably be gone by now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2891932 Mon, 22 Jul 2019 11:50:21 +0000 Fawn 2891932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used ovidrel for 3 IUIs and 1 IVF cycle. I never tested out the trigger and actually never even took a pregnancy test with my IVF cycle, which resulted in my 11 week old daughter. I hate pregnancy tests, they are just too stressful for me.</p> <p>I'm not 100% sure when ovidrel should be out of your system, but I do think 8 days past could go either way. It's possible that's a true positive! :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2891931 Mon, 22 Jul 2019 11:43:05 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2891931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is 8 days after a 5,000 iu trigger. Not sure if it could be positive at this point. I know I’m testing too early. </p> [attach=3657/19/pv1yft.450x600.70B4DF69-F5D8-43D5-AB01-32A682C74C66.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2891924 Mon, 22 Jul 2019 10:40:07 +0000 KT326 2891924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For the 4 IUI's I've done, I never tested out the trigger. But I did take tests on 9/10 DPO and they were stark white on my failed cycles and vvvvfl on my two successful cycles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2891903 Mon, 22 Jul 2019 08:34:31 +0000 muffinsmuffins 2891903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DW did Ovidrel for both our IVF cycles but we did not test it out either time. I just had seen too much confusion over that online and we didn’t want to buy expensive tests ha. Both our cycles were successful and we had a clear positive on FRER at 9/10 dpo (or rather 6/7 days post 3 day transfer and 4/5 days post 5 day transfer)</p> <p>ETA: thinking about this again, I suppose we did trigger for our 9 IUIs as well and always tested around the same time 9/10 dpo which were always stark white negative no question about it so we felt confident our positives with the IVF cycles were not trigger leftover (they were not squinters whatsoever) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2891895 Mon, 22 Jul 2019 06:49:39 +0000 bhbee 2891895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’ve done ovidrel also. I did attempt to test out trigger but what I learned is that it’s honestly not a great idea or at least, you must take it with a huge grain of salt. Pregnancy tests at home are not meant to accurately show you things like a very low hcg of 5. So say that’s the amount of trigger left ... that may show up as a stark white one day and a very faint squinter the day following getting hopes up, but still be trigger. A white test does not mean trigger is gone, just that that test didn’t detect it since all tests and urine samples are a little different. So I think you can test trigger out (and I certainly wouldn’t judge you for it!) but you’re still going to be waiting until 12-14dpo to make sure it’s real with gradual darkening. I think mine was gone for good by 12dpo if I remember correctly. </p> <p>Good luck! As you know the waiting on medicated cycles is so hard :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2891889 Mon, 22 Jul 2019 04:36:46 +0000 Kaohinani 2891889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatchAFallingStar: I use the OVIDREL SY (prefilled injection) which is 250 mcg (* same as 0.5 mL). It is equivalent to 6500-IU of injectable chorogonadotropin alph. In early March (the last time I used Follistim with Ovidrel), I did test out the trigger (along with Yellowbeach who triggered around the same time). My body metabolized it quickly and my line was VVVVL on 9 dpo and not really visible (on a 20 miu HPT) on 10 dpo unless I used a filter on my phone to see it. That stated, Yellowbeach's stayed longer. I believe her levels petered out around 12 dpo, if I am not mistaken. Every body metabolizes a trigger differently at a dissimilar rate. FWIW, most REs (and OBGYNs) will tell you to wait 14 dpt to test for a BFP to make certain all of the HCG is out of your system. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/trigger-shot-experience#post-2891884 Mon, 22 Jul 2019 00:33:27 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2891884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you have experience with trigger shots... what dose did you take? Did you test out the trigger? If so, what day did it turn negative? </p>
