So, I had another round of Day 3 testing (had my FSH checked in November, which was 8.58). My RE tested me this time, last time was an OBGYN. My numbers were FSH 5.6 and E2 65. I'm wondering if maybe my FSH was higher last time because I was on Clomid. I know they say that the high FSH number is always the correct one, but I'm hoping that it wasn't.

That's strange they still tested you while you were on Clomid... when I did the diagnostic stuff with my RE I wasn't allowed to take anything that could affect my reproductive hormones and such.
Are you seeing an RE or an OB?

How long had you been taking Clomid when you did the first test? FSH can go up and down and when you're doing treatments it's not uncommon to do multiple CD3s. They basically only show where you are that cycle, so there is no "correct" one, although if you'd been on Clomid a few days you would have gotten a number based on meds. My FSH bounced around a lot...one cycle it was 11, then 8, then 10, then 3, then 17.

@pui: The first test with with an OB when I was on Clomid. I'm not with an RE and wasn't on Clomid with this test.

@spaniellove: I had taken it the previous cycle for 5 days.

@CatchAFallingStar: If it's the cycle after then you weren't really on it.

@spaniellove: Hmmm. Yeah, that's what I thought. I wonder why it fluctuates so much. Interesting.
