I didn’t have a transfer. I was on letrozole and then had a trigger once the follicles were the right size.

Well that's defo positive! 12 days is a long time for HCG to still be present after a trigger shot. But not impossible of course.

You could test again in a few hours? A trigger shot would get lighter, whereas a BFP would get darker. Though variations throughout the day are also possible.

Do you have any internet cheapies so you can just do one every couple of hours? And then test again on a First Response at same time tomorrow?

Keeping everything crossed for you!

Don't test every few hours, you'll get paranoid if you get alighter one.

If it's been 12 days the trigger should be out of your system

Hope so! Thought so too, but there’s always a niggling feeling that maybe it’s still the trigger!! Guess we’ll see in the next day or two!! Xx

My trigger shot was always gone by 10dpo (I had a faint line like that at 9dpo) but my dr said it can take up to 14 days as it depends how fast your body metabolises it. The only way of knowing will he to test again tomorrow, or ideally in 48hrs.

@Rac3693 Fab and good luck.
Op I should just say that I clicked on your thread as it was in "active" and noticed afterwards that it was under infertility, that's why I just initially commented "that's positive" as if it was another "line eyes" thread.
So excuse my ignorance/ insensitivity and questions and the best of luck! I really hope I see an update on Tuesday with a picture of a BFP 🙂⭐️ Take care OP X
