HPT today wont be accurate

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for your query.

I have read you query and I understand your concerns about HPT.

Following is my reply:

1) HPT becomes positive about 17 days after blastocyst transfer.

2) HPT is not accurate if done today.

3) I suggest you get serum beta hCG test done after 4 days to confirm pregnancy. HPT after 7 days from today to be more accurate.

I hope I answered you query and addressed your concerns.

Let me know if you wish to ask any further questions. I will be glad to help you.
