How do they confirm pregnancy after IVF?
The official IVF pregnancy test will involve taking a blood sample from the patient. We’ll measure the amount of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in the bloodstream. hCG is considered the pregnancy hormone. Higher than normal levels of hCG in a woman’s blood will confirm that they are pregnant.
Can a negative pregnancy test after IVF be wrong?
Yes, you should be aware that it’s possible for a pregnancy test to give a false negative, just as it’s possible for it to give a false positive. The test could give a negative result even if the woman is pregnant if the test is taken too soon, or also in women with very irregular menstrual cycles.

The growing embryo will then increase in size and metabolic activity, producing more hCG until it can be reliably detected 9 to 10 days after embryo transfer. This is why your clinic will likely schedule an hCG blood test around this time.
