Negative home pregnancy tests after IVF, could it still happen?

    Post 7 day transfer after using donor egg. They transferred two eggs out of six and three didn’t make it and one is frozen 🙁 feeling down I made the mistake of testing and I can’t stop 🙁 by blood test is the 5th. I feel some cramps and that’s it but I’ve literally tested every other day and all negatives 🙁 can I still be pregnant? Could it still happen? How many days or weeks after transfer can it happen?

    Thank you so much!

  2. Hello,

    You mean you are on day 7 or 8? In any case, you should not test for pregnancy every single day after embryo transfer. Ideally, you should try not to become obsessed with the results and wait for the beta hCG blood test to get an accurate result. Testing for pregnancy earlier than 12-15 days post embryo transfer can lead to a false negative result, so there are still chances for you being pregnant.

    I hope this helps,

    Best regards
