My doctor tells me and FSH and estradiol test has to be on cycle day 2 or 3. The levels change with teh cycle, and the levels at day 2 or 3 give them the answer to what they are looking for.

The link posted above is great for checking normal hormone levels...but your levels seem totally normal.

Your FSH is in the "good" category (this checks your egg reserve and quality), and your LH is low, which is should be this early in the cycle (this is the hormone that triggers ovulation later on), and your THS (which checks your thyroid levels) are also in the normal range.

The levels are usually checked on day 3...but I honestly don't think it makes that much of a difference having the tests done on day 5. It's still early in your cycle.

Best of luck with everything!
