Must FSH levels be tested on Day2

Post by BB »

Hi All,

I am currently awaiting AF which is normally quite perdictable except of course, when it matters, this month! I have made an appointment for next Wednesday for the test as this is the date I reckoned would be Day 2. But I am feeling quite AF-ie at the minute. I am worried that it will arrive on Saturday which makes Sunday day 2. Does anyone know how important it is that FSH level is done on Day 2?

Thanks

Hi Karen

We haven't spoken before. As far as I know it has to be day 2. Before I started my treatment I had to have so many blood tests at my GPs / at the hospital, just to check the levels over the months were constant, before treatment started - and they always had to be Day 2 tests.

Surely you're not saying they don't do tests on Sundays at your hospital/clinic ....?

I should be able to put your mind at rest , it is between day 2-5 but that is for my clinic , it would be good for you to check with yours.
