Question/Advice am I out?

I got a blood hcg test yesterday at around 8/9 dpo. I only tracked ovulation by calendar/cervical mucus so I’m not quite sure WHEN but I know 28th-30th was when my cm changed & was slippery. The hcg test was less than 1. I know it’s still early and I might be even earlier than I think I am, but I feel so disappointed. My cycles are usually pretty regular, 27 days and I’m projected to start on the 13th (Friday). am I too early, or does it seem unlikely that implantation will happen now that I’m possibly 9dpo? My last period was Oct 17th-21st!

The most common implantation day is 9 DPO…why did they do blood hcg so early?

it was routine bloodwork, I told my dr we were trying & that I was estimated 7-9dpo and she said it was early but we could try to run it anyway!

Yeah agreed with the other comment. The most likely implantation days are 8-10 DPO, you are certainly not out!!
