I went to the dr's last month and he ordered several test, including bloodwork on day 3 of my period. I went to him b/c I was spotting for several days before my period actually starts. Well, I am on cycle day 41 (yes, I know thats long. Mine usually average 34 days) and I began to spot yesterday.
So should I go for bloodwork tomorrow or wait until a full blown period comes (I am nervous it may not b/c of how late in my cycle it is).
I have a call into the doctor, but I wanted to hear some thoughts from caring woman

I've had blood work done, but not on any certain day of my cycle. I have had other tests done on certain days of my cycle. There are reasons why they want tests done on certain days. Try to make a list of questions for your doctor before they call back so you can get everything answered. It's not unusual to have an irregular cycle every now and then. There are ways of regulating your cycle and even to bring on your period so that you can begin a new cycle. My OB has given me Prometrium (progesterone) to help start my period before when it was delayed. He also gave me Clomid to help me ovulate. It's good that you are in contact with your doctor. Information is the key to solving the problem. Many women wait years to seek the help of a doctor when ttc. They have the knowledge to help you succeed, so why not use it.

I would go for the bloodwork just to see what it says. Good luck, I hope you get that baby soon!
