Hi ,
How are you doing ?
am sad to say that chances of pregnancy is negative. Among all these findings , Serum Beta HCG is the most predictive. Even if the smallest of pregnancy anywhere in body present, HCG will be high. As it is
It is always better to have a scan in beginning of periods & see all thfeatures of OHSS has disappeared & then followup with scans to check the endometrial thickness, once favorable , do the transfer. These hormones of OHSS will not allow even a healthy embryo to sit in the uterus. Ther is no hurry, can wait for next cycle anyway
All the best
