I think I’ve lost the plot….

I’m talking to chat GPT and it’s convincing me that a negative at 10dpo is normal. And means if I implanted at 9dpo, it wouldn’t show on a sensitive test 11dpo and if I implanted 10dpo it wouldn’t show until 11dpo…

I’m literally talking to it like I’m best mates!

Can someone please who tracked ovulation confirm they implanted day 10, as they only got positives day 11/12 onwards and negative prior.

Human brain is fascinating. There's no logic reason to test early, but majority still do.

Testing early doesn't speed up the pregnancy process, or the preparations for pregnancy, child rearing etc.

Even if you test at 10DPO, you're still going to test again at 14DPO regardless of it's positive or negative.

For me, it would relax me until day 14!

she says…🤣

Well the logic is you will know sooner and the 2 week wait will be shorter if you test positive earlier as that wait is super stressful to some.

I saw a graph from study on implantation and it showed most common day of implantation was 9dpo.
Closely followed by 10dpo then 8 then 7 I think.

I'm an obsessive tester. I get it

So you know the people who implant in 10dpo when do they get their positive on a sensitive test with enough hcg? Do you reckon 11dpo or 12dpo?

also, I also thought this… if 9dpo is the most common… how come SO many positive 7/8/9dpo

@Qwerty93 you've been posting quite a bit, please try to chill out a bit and do as advised - test on Monday when you said your period is due.

I know. I’m quite an anxious person! Understatement of the year 🤣. So I’ll just like have word vomit in my head- and I’m just frantically posting on here to control it. (Apologies for all you sane women trying to live your life and I’m posting non stop rubbish essentially!)

ChatGPT is just a next level predictive text machine. It’s isn’t intelligent, not medically trained and it certainly isn’t your friend.

Nobody can really confirm what day they implanted. Also everyone's levels of HCG will be slightly different..

You are going to lose the plot if you obsess over every single thing - especially talking to chat GPT. My advice is test when you are due / late. Don't allow you're to test sooner because you will constantly be wondering what if it's positive tomorrow.

You need to.mjnd yourself - i know its difficult.

Peonies12 · 09/10/2025 11:12

Honestly, don't test til the day your period is due. I didn't even buy a test til that day, so I wasn't tempted.

MocktailMe · 09/10/2025 11:10

I mean technically it is correct. If you implanted at 9dpo it's possible it could take until 10dpo to show. If you implant on 10dpo it's possible it could take until 11dpo to show.

It's also possible for a very very sensitive test to show on the same day you implant. Realistically can you test negative on 10dpo and it go on to test positive later, yes. Is it also less likely to do so after the 10dpo negative, also yes.

ChatGPT is a large language model that is programmed to get users to continue talking to it so will sometimes tell you what you want to hear/be flattering/optimistic. It's telling you facts but in a way to keep you hopeful, as you want to remain hopeful.

If you want to use AI to track cycles, log test results etc then you can do so, but you should tell it you want it to be brutally honest at all times, and not be overly optimistic.

I've used it before to ask questions but told it to be strictly factual, don't talk as though a friend, and don't give hope where it isn't warranted. As such, if I tell it I have had a negative at 11dpo it will move to ask me to log my next period and asks which symptoms of the cycle i want it to remember for the next etc. It does this because it will assume statistically the chance of pregnancy is now extremely low (assuming my ovulation date is confirmed).

AI can be a useful tracking tool, same as apps such as Flo etc. But confiding to it, and chatting like a friend will lead it to give you hope due to small statistical outliers. If you want that comfort you can do so, but I'm not sure it's healthy. Ask it to be brutally honest and speak to you whilst giving references for it's assumptions etc. You'll have an entirely different experience.

Just test when your period is due, stop driving yourself crazy for no reason.
