FMU Question


Hello All

Bit of testing question.

I suffered quite badly with cystitis up to a couple of year ago, where I'd get bout after bout after bout of it, and nothing was getting rid. Some of you may sympathise with the extreme cases like me of passing blood and clots and the pain etc, but it ended up with me having to have a little operation called a cyscocophy (think that's how you spell it), where they stretch you a little bit in your tubes. It allows you to "drain" properly when going (tmi, sorry)

As a result I now have the bladder of a three year old and can't make it through the night without having to get up. (Apologies to all who have three years olds who can now make it through!!)

This leads me to my question. What's going to be my FMU? When I get up at 4 or 5am or when I finally drag myself out at 7. You all saying 4 or 5am aren't you? But what if I get up earlier, say 1 or 2am?

Is there a period of time that the urine has to be in you? If so, couldn't I just hold it in the day and do the same. (Then again, if that idea's not going to bring on another bout, I don't know what will!!)

Will I ever be able to give my body long enough to register the right hormones?

Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Ta and lots

You could collect several samples in containers? If you go to bed around 1030 and get up at 2 you've had a few hours without a drink. It's just that FMU is concentrated. Probably better if you can wait longer to test (as in lateness!) Good luck!

I think I read somewhere 4-5 hours - you could do it during the day but then you'll be having drinks etc so it'll be more diluted. It may well be that you have to wait till yr hcg levels are higher to test then they will show up no matter when you test.
Hope this helps and good luck xXx
