Hi Dr. Wisot,
I saw your recent reply to a question about an hcg trigger shot being out of your system in about 9 days. I am in the two week wait after an IVF cycle and did a double trigger with both a Pregnyl 10,000 iu IM shot and a subcutaneous Ovidrel 250 mcg shot due to a history of immature eggs at retrieval. With having taken two different triggers, how many days should it take before both are out of my system? Does weight have any impact on how fast it is metabolized? If so, I am on the thin side. Thank you so much for providing this service!

Re: double trigger question
Hi:
It should be about the same time period. I do not believe that weight would have much effect on the half-life.
But I know what you are getting at; I suggest you wait until your doctor has scheduled the pregnancy test. Early tests do not predict a successful pregnancy and create more questions than provide answers.
Good luck.
