Hi all- well af found me a few days late. anyway I am having day 3 blood test done tomorrow and DH is having Sperm analysis. Do any of you know how soon you usually get these results back? and does the dr. call you to go over them? What does the day 3 blood work show? We haven't bedded in a week- so I guess thats good for my dh's sample that he'll be giving.

Any thoughts, info would be appreciated.

Thanks

For my b/w, the results took about a week. A nurse from the doctor's office called to go over the results with me and to talk about next steps.

For my DH's SA, the results came back in about 2 days. Again, a nurse from the doctor's office called to go over the results with me and to talk about next steps. Great news that it's been a week since BD - the labs usually ask for no BD for 2-5 days before a SA is run.

I'm not sure what a CD3 blood test is for... I've heard of CD21 bloodwork to check PL, and I've heard of CD3 pelvic exams. Maybe someone else will know what a CD3 blood test is for.
