When is it safe to test after trigger?

I know I should wait, but I am getting antsy.  I guess maybe I should've tested out the trigger.  Anyway, I triggered the evening of Monday the 21st, and did an IUI on that Wednesday.  I was thinking about testing on Sunday, but I don't want o get my hopes up with a false positive.  Do you think the HCG will be out of my system by then, or do I need to wait?  This is my third IUI, but my first using injectables so I'm feeling extra hopeful.  I appreciate any experience you ladies have had.  TIA!

    Everyone is different, but based on my experience a trigger would be out of my system by then.  When is your beta?

    I've always waited until at least 8dpo. That's still pretty early but the trigger should be out.

    Thanks Ladies!  I'm not scheduled for a beta draw until Thursday the 7th if AF doesn't arrive first.  My other cycles AF still came even though I was on progesterone a few days before a scheduled beta...so we shall see!

    My RE told me to wait 14 days after trigger to test.  I tested on day 12, but worried that I had a false positive, so I tested again 2 days later

    Thanks Ladies!  For those that said 14 days, was it 14 days after trigger or 14 days after IUI?  Tomorrow will be 13 dpt and 11 dpiui.
