Why didn't I get pregnant two days after egg retrieval surgery?

Patient's question:

On the 14th of last month, I had my period, but I didn't ovulate and the follicle didn't break. This month, after undergoing an egg retrieval procedure, I had intercourse for two consecutive days, and it has been 8-9 days since today. Why am I not pregnant? Even the pregnancy test has shown two lines continuously.

Doctor's answer:

If you have concerns, it's best to undergo a blood test. A test can be done one week after sexual activity. This is the "pregnancy test" hormone that gynecologists are most familiar with and most commonly use. Blood hCG is an important basis for speculating pregnancy. The blood HCG test involves drawing venous blood from the arm and does not require fasting. Additionally, patients should develop a regular sleep schedule, adhere to treatment, maintain a light diet, and engage in aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
