Re: day 21 test?
That's all it is...a test to see if you ovulated and if all your hormone levels are where they are supposed to be.

Re: day 21 test?
I had this today. It was a blood test done 8 days after my LH surge to test my progesterone levels to confirm that I actually ovulated.

Re: day 21 test?
I am not sure about the value, but if thats the day you got AF then the progesterone should be low. I think the interpretation depends on when you ovulated.

Re: day 21 test?
There are a host of things here. 1. When did you O? You should go for the test 7 dpo not CD 21 because not everyone ovulates on CD 14. 2. I have read that the level should be 7 or above but everyone is different. These numbers are just guidelines. i was told by one fertility Dr that I "wasn't winning any races with a progesterone level of 1.5. Whatever that means 3. You definitely got your period on CD21? Or was it spotting?

Re: day 21 test?
I do a blood test one week after I ovulate, not necessarily day 21. I was on progesterone suppositories because I had an IUI and my progesterone was 24.7, whatever that means, my doctor was happy with the number. HTH.

Re: day 21 test?
its a pain in the neck but you can go for blood tests to detect ovulation (the LH surge)
