Day 5 of cycle or just after the period - day 1 is the day period starts like it is 1.5. 16, test will be done on 6.5. 16 but if women have a tendency to have a 7 days plus cycle, it will be done a day after she gets dry. Reason is that while doing the test for tubes, we are hopeful of a pregnancy and will be disturbing / killing it.

Signs and symptoms of hepatitis B may include: Abdominal pain. Dark urine. Fever. Joint pain. Loss of appetite. Nausea and vomiting. Weakness and fatigue. Yellowing of your skin and the whites of your eyes (jaundice) The Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) is a technique used to detect antibodies or infectious agents in a sample.

Hello- NAAT is a molecular test that detects the genetic material (DNA) of Chlamydia trachomatis. It is generally more sensitive and specific than other chlamydia tests and can be performed on a vaginal swab on women, or urine from both men and women, which eliminates the need for a pelvic exam in women.

Is random sugar test in the morning before not eating anything and fasting sugar test was same or different.
Namaste Madam, No, The Random sugar test, tests done through a home Glucometer, are not the same as lab FBS. The biochemical process and principle applicable for each vary. However, each of the test has its importance in properly indicating the glycaemic control achieved by the patient.

How to prepare for TSH/Thyroid test? Should Thyroxine be taken prior to the test?
Mr. T lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. There is no special preparation needed for doing thyroid test. Ideally blood should be taken before 10 ma in the morning. There is no need for keeping fasting state. Breakfast can be had. TSH levels are best tested before 10 am, to get accurate values. Thanks.
