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.
Progesterone tests have to be done at a certain time, or the results will not be accurate. Progesterone levels are usually checked anywhere between 6 to 8 days after you ovulate. This is usually around age 21 to 23 of a 28 day cycle. This phase is known as the luteal phase, and the length of the luteal phase is very important. The progesterone test will be looking for the amount of progesterone in your blood during that particular point during your luteal phase.
