Guest guest Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Mine says to test on day 19, 20, or 21 of your cycle, with day 1 the first day you notice bleeding. I take this to mean 5-7 days after you ovulate. That would be an important distinction to anyone who does not have a 28-day cycle, like me. There have been months where I'm only just ovulating ON day 21, so that would really throw off this test! (In fact, my son was considered two weeks overdue, when he really wasn't because I have a 6-week cycle. Had to fight with the doc about not inducing!) Do NOT stop the Armour. The results will show whether your dosage is too high or low, and that can only be determined if you take it as you normally do.

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Thank you Barb, this was really helpful. So I am to take Armour on the actual day of the test?

Day 21 of your cycle is the preferred day to test. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 This is an issue that concerns me because having had a hysterectomy, I have no idea what day of my cycle I am on. I still have ovaries so technically, I still have a cycle. How much does this affect your test results and in which direction (does it show higher or lower cortisol?)

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 This mainly affects the sex hormones not the cortiosl. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://www.seewell4less.com/Valspage.htm Medical Alert Bracelets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Oh, that is great to know, thank you Val. I hope your busy pre holiday work load goes smoothly. I sure wish you could do something with my scruffy schnoodle Bobo who joins me in wishing you a very Merry Christmas!
