Its Day 10 after my embryo transfer and HPT was negative does that mean im not pregnant?
It is still too early to tell if you are pregnant based solely on a negative home pregnancy test (HPT) result 10 days after your embryo transfer. HPTs work by detecting the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in your urine, which is a hormone produced by the developing placenta after implantation of an embryo. However, the level of hCG in your urine may not be high enough to be detected by an HPT until several days or even weeks after implantation.
To confirm pregnancy, it is recommended to wait until at least 14 days after your embryo transfer and then take another HPT. If the result is still negative, it is advisable to consult with your fertility specialist or doctor for further evaluation and possible blood tests to measure your hCG levels. Blood tests can detect lower levels of hCG compared to HPTs and can provide a more accurate determination of pregnancy status.
It is important to remember that everyone's body and pregnancy journey is unique, and implantation can occur at different times for different individuals. Therefore, it is important to follow the recommendations of your fertility specialist or doctor and not lose hope based solely on a single negative HPT result.
