Hi KerriLynn74. The HCG trigger just causes your follies to release the eggs. But as sperm can live inside your body for 5 to 7 days it's possible that since the sperm will be waiting for the eggs you could get PG from BD last night. Usually however you don't actually ovulate til 36 hrs after the shot. But again sperm can live inside for several days. Does this answer your question? HTH!

THANKS MEGA!
YES THAT GAVE ME SOME IDEA OF HOW THE SHOT WORKS..SO I GUESS TONIGHT HIM AND I SHOULD HAVE INTERCOURSE AGAIN JUST TO MAKE SURE IT WORKS.LOL.

HELLO EVERYONE....

i DID A CYCLE OF CLOMID ( 50MG) AND FRIDAY FEBUARY 10TH 2006 I HAD 1 HCG INJECTION IN MY STOMACH..HAVE HAD INTERCOURSE ALL WEEKEND AND CONTINUING TO TIL I GET A POSITIVE... NEVER HAD IUI.. I HAVE PCOS AND AM ALSO ON " METFORMIN" AND ON THYROID MEDICATION..COUL D I GET PREGNANT THE FIRST ROUND OF HCG INJECTION? IT WAS DAY 16 WHEN I GOT THE SHOT..AND IF SO WHEN WOULD IT BE SAFE TO TAKE A PREG TEST?

I am new to this web site. I find it so comforting to hear your stories and know that I am not alone. I am 40 years old - ancient in fertility years. I had a ruptured ectopic 11/2 years ago and then had two miscarriages since. This is my first IVF month. They were only able to successfully transfer one embryo. I had the HcG shot 16 days ago and am supposed to have blood test this Friday. I cheated and took a hpt today. There was a very, very, very faint positive line. I don't know what to think of this. I really don't have any pregnancy symptoms and know how bummed out I'll be if I have to go through another IVF cycle again. The times I got pregnant and miscarried, the line was very very faint too. I guess I'm confused. It is such an emotional rollercoaster.

Hi Mary and welcome to the board. I am 36, but am "premenopausal" in reproductive age (elevated fsh). In my experience, the hcg is out of your system by 16 days. I have even taken a test 9 days after the shot and got a BFN. I hope you are pg!! It sounds promising.

Hi, just thought I'd tell you my hcg and hpt experience. I took hpt 10dpo -12 after injection. Got +, the next dday it was fainter but I kept testing until day 14-when Re told me to come in for bloodtest. I got + results and am pg after being on metformin for 1 year, femara-first round and hcg first shot!! Sooo I was told it is safe to test 14dpo-research online says it should be out of your system in 10 days. Goodluck to all of you!

Hi again. Thanks for sharing. I went to the dr.'s yesterday and they gave me blood hcg test. I came back positive but nurse said my number was 45 and to be cautiously optimistic since they like to see a number at least over 50. Having had the three miscarriages in a row, I am now more nervous than ever. It seems I must constantly be keeping my guard up. I can't celebrate and be happy because there is this dark cloud looming above. I get another blood test on Monday. They want to see my numbers double by then. Anyone else have numbers low to start with that turned out okay?

I went to a spiritual spell caster for my help getting pregnant. I am not sure who is open to this idea, but I have been very blessed with a beautiful daughter. I tried a lot of things that didn't work, but two weeks after asking for her help I conceived.
Now I believe,

Hi girlls, I had IUI on fryday and have question, so please if anyone can answer to me.At 8 fryday had trigger shot and it was CD12.Had one large follie or cyst 23 mm on right and small one 10mm.On the left had one 19mm and other smaller nurse couldnt see becose tissues so it wasnt messurable.We had insemination at 1pm.Today is sunday CD14, 8.30 in the evening and OPK test is with hot red two lines.What is going on???? Have I ovulated or not?Nurse said should O 24-38 h after shot.Why my OPK is for 3 days positive.I am so worried that I havent ovulated.Please someone answer to me!Baby dust to all.

I think it's b/c the trigger shot meds in still in your system?

Hi Abby004, and yes you are right, my doctor said not to test with OPK b/c it may stay longer after ovulation.Thanks.

Hi - I'm new to this whole infertility gig and this is my first attempt at chatting online so please be patient with me. My story is pretty brief so far, I have been on 50mg of Clomid for the last 2 months, and did my first HCG shot 8 days ago. Here's my question, I've felt a bit crampy ( expected it) but have had a case of cha-cha-cha's ( sorry trying to be polite) for the last 2 days. It didn't dawn on me that this could be a side effect of the HCG, until I read about it online. I honestly thought I caught a case of the nasty flu bug flying around, but the cha-cha-cha's are my only symptom. That and I've had periodic experiences with IBS, this is definitly different. I'm traveling for work and not near my Dr. I'm calling my Dr. first thing tomorrow AM. Should I be really concerned?! Can someone please ease my mind?

I am new to this so please help me out. My husband and I have been trying for about 2 years. We just did the insemination for the 6th time this week. This time feels different. Anyone know what the side effects are? I am feeling a lot of cramping. Please help!

Hello Everyone: I am new here as well and I guess my question as kind of been answered. I also too Ovidrel 10,000 on Jan 21, today would be day 14 and I took my first HPT and there was a faint line. Do you think it could be a real positive or do you think it is still the Ovidrel in my system. The Dr. did call yesterday to say that my progesterone was a little on the lower side so to increase my progesterone supp. That made me wonder if I really could be pregnant. Any feedback would be really appreciated. Thanks again. and baby dust to you all.

Hi, Wak, well after 14 days I think that it should be out of your system for sure. Do you have any other symptoms? I'd call you ob and go get a blood test. Good luck! Keep me posted.

I had hcg shot 5000, and now exactly 4 and a half days later the line on pregnancy test is really faint so I agree with it takes 1 day for each 1000 to get out of your system
