I'm not sure about when to test for IUI.  A doctor may test your beta now seeing as an IUI was involved but I honestly don't know.  I'm sorry I'm of no help.  :-(

No never told to do temps or anthing its like eveyones got so much more to do than me, feel like i cld be doing more..... I'll be on day 16 dpiui 2mora and told hpt shld work? But i'm confused as they only detect 4 days pror to af and i have a 35 day cycle and 2mora will be 28 days.... arggggggghhh.

Thanks for you help,...

Do you chart your temps?  The best indication is if your temp goes up and stays up for more than 18 days after you ovulate.  If they stay up past 18 days (or past your normal luteal phase length) then you are pg.  Doctors don't normally check your beta unless you've missed a period and the HPT comes back negative.

so should this be done, i'm concerend that a pregnancy test after 14 days will give a negative so i dare not test, wonder if i cld have that done?

Thanks for telling me though...

It's a pregnancy test.  It's more accurae than home pregnancy test and measures the hcg level in your blood.
