Ok so went to gp today and she's getting some blood tests done for me. Day 21 progesterone and day 1-4. Can some explain what these might mean and what result I'm looking for? The day 1-4 will look for fsh (shesaid it needs to be 4 or 5) LH and testosterone and tft's which was something to do with thyroid? Anyone clear that up a bit for me?
She gave me one bit of info which I challenged as she said you always ovulate 14 days before your period and I said that I heard read on mumsnet that that wasn't true and could vary. She said she's never been challenged on it before but she would check with a gynaecologist to make sure. She's wrong isn't she? Anyway at the mo my cycles are about 30-32 days and I've got the day 21 test booked in on cd24. I think I ovulate around cd19. Will that work out ok? She says they're looking for progesterone level?
Anyway really hope someone can clarify these bits for me, I'd be really grateful. Thank you in advance.
