Effective April 1, 2011, code G0431QW is deleted from the Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule (CLFS). Code G0431 describes a high complexity test, and should not be reported with a QW modifier; the QW modifier indicates a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) waived test.
If this occurs with insemination or intercourse that is timed correctly, the egg may become fertilized. It is important to remember, however, that the hCG within the trigger shot will stay in your urine for 7 to 10 days so you may get a false positive on a home pregnancy test. Because of this, most doctors will wait at least two weeks to give you a blood test designed to test for hCG levels.
The process of an hCG trigger shot begins three days after your period starts, according to the Advanced Fertility Center of Chicago. Most controlled ovarian stimulation cycles start with the injection of follicle stimulation hormoneâFSHâat this time. FSH spurs your ovaries to begin developing eggs.
