So I should probably be more specific. Lesson learned! Pee test- not blood test. Which they will probably run anyway due to meds, new doctor, etc because we aren't preventing. I'm not temping so O on CD 20 is based upon other signs- CM, charting, cramps- things that I've been tracking for the better part of a year. From my understanding, the very earliest would be 7 DPO with a higher inaccuracy rate, most people waiting until at least 10 DPO for better results.
Your understanding is completely false. Implantation occurs around 7DPO at the very earliest. From there your body has to build up enough HCG in order for a test to detect..this takes a couple days as the hormones double. Not to mention, your O date is based on feels..you could be closer to 5-6DPO, you don't know. Charting your cramps & CM for a year still doesn't tell you when you've actually O'd. It would be a waste of your doctors time to test you at an assumed 7DPO. Even if you were to become pregnant, your test will be negative at 7DPO. Those that get BFPs at 7DPO are women who don't actually know when they O'd and are probably closer to 10+ DPO.
Science. This is a place that believes in science.
Wait, what? Did I type that out loud?
