We are ALMOST identical ;) My CD3 FSH was 10 & my E2 was 40 too......the BAD news was that I did the CCCT & took my FSH on CD10 & it shot up to 15 ;( Means my one & only poor lil ovary is working a littleLittle noses decongestant Little tummys hard producing my follies...so I am told...........
2007 - conceived my daughter October, with first IUI using meds, tests beforehand taken on day 2 showed:
estradiol 253, with FSH of 6.9
Now, I'm trying for baby # 3. Have had one unsuccessful IUI, and one cancelled IUI, as I produced too many mature follies. Tests taken in April, on day 2 showed:
estradiol 68, with FSH of 8.5.
What I don't understand is why my estradiol is now so much lower?? The nurse told me it was good, but I don't understand the background - what is going on? I know a high estradiol reading can make the FSH appear lower than it really is. I just don't get why my estradiol is now so much lower, when it seemed it was going in a patter of increasing. Anyway, I suppose I'll ask my RE when I see him. It had slipped my mind until I saw your posts.
So much is said about estradiol, some say high estradiol or low estradiol are not good in certain circumstances, for getting pregnant.....
