Blood Test help please! Day 2 and 21

Hi
Does anyone know if you need to have your day 2 and day 21 blood tests on the same cycle? Or can you have them on different cycles?
Im wondering if I can have my day 21 this cycle or need to wait to next cycle so my day 2 and 21 are on the same one?
Thank you!

I work in a lab analysing these results, I don't see why they would need to be on the same cycle. You can always check with your GP but they're checking hormone levels which would be roughly the same every cycle unless you had one where you ovulated late or an anovulatory cycle. Best of luck!

If you struggle to get an appointment, let them know it's time sensitive and they'll do their best to squeeze you in. If it helps, I had these tests when I started bleeding between periods (before TTC) along with ultrasound, no issues found and everything settled afterwards. Think it was stress related and everything settled back to normal after a few months. Fingers crossed for the best for you!

Can anyone help, I had the day 21 blood tests done last week, when I rang for the results today the receptionist just said they came back all clear? Does that mean that I do ovulate? She didn’t give me any numbers just said yeah they have all came back clear

I imagine that means no issues have been flagged. Although I think they also sometimes do various sti and other infection tests as standard at the same time as these (I had all sorts of things checked) so the receptionist may have just seen one of those and thought it's OK. Probably worth checking in with your Dr when you follow up.

@Toddy21 if you ask at your doctors for them to make all of your medical records available to you on your nhs app you can view the actual results on the app so can see if the figures are just over or well within etc. The receptionist or GP only tends to say normal or not normal.
