Infertility

CD 1

I've always counted CD 1 the first day I have flow whether I got it in the AM or PM. The nurse just told me it is the 1st day WHOLE day I have flow, is that correct? Thanks 

Re: CD 1

  • My doctor say they want full flow before 5pm to count it as cycle day 1.
  • Loading the player...
  • Mine said full flow by noon is cd1.
  • Is it okay to do do hormone studies and ultrasound on CD4? My CD1 is today per what nurse and you ladies are telling me. Thanks for your responses
  • My doctor said that same thing......I was so confused

  • My clinic counts it as day 1 if you start full flow before noon.  Otherwise you count the next day as day 1.  I don't think it is an exact science.

  • I've always heard the first day that you use a full tampon/pad. Other than that it's spotting and the next day is CD1
    background of: TTC, infertiltiy
  • My clinic said as long as the flow started by 5 it countdown as day 1. They also said it has to be a flow where you need more than a liner to count. Hope that this helps!
