Goldberg how long does medication stay in your system?Dear, Dr. Goldberg, thank you. So if I take a drug test, I would come clean in 5 days? I'm taking the medication because I am bodybuilding and it helps me sleep for 14 hours. I gain around 10 pounds in a week for the the first month.
The test is usually given on day 3 of your menstrual cycle, though most doctors are OK with the test being done on any day between days 2 to 4 of your cycle. (The first day of your cycle is the day your period begins.) FSH levels may also be checked at another time during the menstrual cycle, but this is uncommon.
If a combination birth control (estrogen and progestin 21- or 28 day birth control pill pack) is started for the first time on the Sunday after your period begins, your period should occur about 25 days later. Ask your healthcare provider which day is the best to start your specific pill pack.
