hcG Shot and Peestick Testing

My doctor gave me an hcG shot. Are my peestick results still valid?


Depending upon the amount of hcG in the shot, you may be advised that you need to wait until 14 DPO before you can test. You doctor will instruct you on when to test, but he or she is unlikely to be a peestickaholic like many of us here in Peestick Paradise.

Some women start testing with IC's from the day of their hcG shot until the end of their cycle. This allows them to see the line get fainter, and so they know the hcG from the shot is leaving their system. If the line then starts to get darker towards the end of the two week wait, they can be more confident that it is a real BFP and not just the leftover hcG from their shot.
