    The only ones I can comment on are Progesterone, Oestradiol and TSH.

    A progesterone level over 30 indicates that you are ovulating. However some fertility experts believe that you need a progesterone level between 60 and 100 to reduce the risk of miscarriage.
    You're oestradiol level is fine - the level should be between 400 and 800.
    And you TSH is also fine - it should be be between 1.00 and 2.00 for trying to conceive.

    Remember day 21 is only a guide, the bloods should actually be taken 7 days after ovulation, so when you are getting the test repeated, you should try to figure out the right day by using OPKs and looking at you cervical mucous.

    Best of luck

    Your prolactin is perfect too. :)

    Anything under 400 is normal. Anything between 400 and 1000 is slightly elevated and over that, high. But even if it was in the 1000's, its a simple tablet to fix.

    They normally do a repeat to try to establish a pattern more than anything else, same way that your cycle length in your periods show patterns.

    As well as that, its possible to have an anovulatory cycle once in a while for no reason, so they want to establish if you ovulate every month.
