Guest guest Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 I am getting ready to get some more labs done and want to make sure I do them accurately. When is the best time to test LH & FSH, is there a specific time of the cycle that is more accurate? I am re-doing my aldosterone as I did it last time at the end of my cycle and it came out high, I then found it it needs to be done the first 7 days of your cycle to be accurate and that you have to salt fast for 24 hrs. Also, shouldn't you be lying down when they draw? Thanks for your input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thsi is why you usually would be sitting and just use the upright levels. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
