Ideally, in order to obtain an accurate result for FSH, LH and estradiol levels, it should be done on day 3 of the cycle, after the start of the menstrual period. Progesterone, on the other hand, should be tested on day 21. Finally, AMH levels can be checked at any time during the cycle, as its levels are independent from the cycle.
