How Reliable Is Blood Test In Pregnancy?

My doctor wants me to take a pregnancy test just 12 days past ovulation and 24 days since day one of my period. If I don t do ivf this month I ll have to wait an additoinal month and risk not getting insurance coverage for another cycle since I ll be 44 in April. Is it safe to do a blood test this early and have it be reliable? Oh also my periods used to be 25 days before I had two iuis and one ivf , the last two months they have been 30 day cycles.

Yes only blood test can tell so early that you are pregnant or not. Upt becomes positive Only after the missed period. so go for it.
