Pregnyl hcg booster shots

Hi Dr. Brown,

I had an IUI on March 27th (ovulated on my own), then had 1000miu Pregnyl hcg booster shots on days 3,6, & 9 post IUI. I hpt'd today (16 days post iui) & got a postive test (I also tested yesterday & today's test was darker). Could that be a false positive or a true positive? Fingers crossed!

Thank you for your help!

I had a trigger shot (5000miu) 36 hours before I ovulated with my last IUI.  I tested the shot out to negative and it took 8 days to leave my system.  The tests should be getting lighter if it was the trigger, not darker, so I think that your BFP is real.

The only way to know for sure is to get beta blood testing done to see if your hcg level is doubling every 48 hours.  Good Luck!

Thank you! :) I'm just worried the positive might be from the hcg booster shots. But I did just hpt for three days in a row & the lines have been getting darker-yay! I'm trying not to let myself get too excited but it's hard! I call the re tomorrow to get my blood test-fingers crossed!
