The Trigger is gone!

In an IVF cycle, you take a trigger shot two days before the egg retrieval. That shot is HCG (the hormone they look for on a pregnancy test), and it's known as a trigger. I takes between 9 and 12 days to be totally out of your system. Until then, any pregnancy test will show up positive, whether your pg or not. I've been testing on and off this week to see when it's out of my system, and as of today it is. I finally got a stark white test (never thought I'd want one of those)! Now, if I get a + next week, I'll know it's real!
