Hi,
HCG (
human chorionic gonadotropin) levels can typically be detected in the blood as early as 8-11 days after conception, which is usually around 5-7 days after a
blastocyst embryo transfer. However, the timing can vary based on the individual and the sensitivity of the
pregnancy test being used.
In your case, your official beta test is scheduled for 14 days after transfer, which is the most reliable way to confirm pregnancy. However, some women may choose to take a home pregnancy test before the beta test to check for the presence of HCG. It is important to keep in mind that the accuracy of a home pregnancy test can vary depending on the brand and the timing of the test.
If you are experiencing any symptoms of pregnancy such as breast tenderness,
nausea, or
fatigue, it may be tempting to test early. However, it is important to remember that not all women experience early pregnancy symptoms, and a negative result on an early test does not necessarily mean you are not pregnant. It is best to follow the recommendations of your healthcare provider and wait until the scheduled beta test to confirm pregnancy.
