Blood test results

I quite often see people asking about blood test results here and what's 'normal'. I picked up some from the doctors this week and it usefully came with reference levels. I know that different laboratories have different 'normal' levels, but thought I'd share in case these are useful (also some google searching results from 18 months ago - first time I had bloods done - can't remember what site I got them from):

Day 3 LH (u/L)
Follicular phase: 0.8 - 12.5
Midcycle: 8.7 - 76.3
Luteal: 0.5 - 16.9
Pregnant: 2.5 is an issue)

Full Blood Count
HB: 11.5 - 16.5 g/dL
WBCs: 4 - 11 109/L
Platelet Count: 150 - 450 10

RBCs: 3.5 - 5.8 10*12/L
Haematocrit: 0.37 - 0.47 1/1
MCV: 84 - 102 fL
MCH: 28 - 33 pg
MCHC: 30 - 35 g/dL

Differential white cell count

Thanks for bumping KOMH. Just realised I left the 'day 3' in as that's when I had mine done, but the reference levels cover the whole cycle.
