Bloods on CD7?

I finally got the courage to go to my GP and tell him about TTC and not being successful.

He sent me for blood tests on CD7 to check for a 'fertility profile' and progesterone.

Am I being stupid - but isn't CD 7 too late for FSH levels and too early to be checking for progesterone?

I phoned up for my blood test results this morning (they were done a week ago) but the receptionist said they weren't back yet.

It just makes no sense to me why my GP asked me to have them done on CD7 when I'm not having the 21 day progesterone test because I get positive OPK's... :shrug:

God Bless you all and millions of babydust wishes your way xxx
 
Like you, I'm confused why your GP has ordered CD 7 blood tests. You usually have blood tests on CD 2-5 and CD 21. The other possible test is AMH, but that can be done any day of your cycle and I don't think it is routinely offered by GPs.

I might ask to see another GP - one that knows what he/she is doing!
 
Thank you. An AMH test fits it because I had an ED for 9 years and he said it could have ruined my egg supply. I'll call up today..

Thank you for answering and babydust to you all.
