Endo scratch advice

I am going for my first endo scratch next week at day 19 yet I read you are supposed to go at day 21. Given i am paying for this privately should I ask to go in day 21 instead? Any advice from you lovely ladies or diane would be great. Xxx

I think day 21 is recommended but give or take a couple of days I don't think will make any difference! I've always had to pay for Mind but had to go on clinic day so it's never been bang on day 21. Mind & defo take painkillers an hour before you go, don't know if they'll tell you that or not!!xx

I had this same query! But was told that it definately only had to be day 21 if testing for natural killer cells, if it was just for a scratch then they have a few days le-way each side. Hope that helps and sending lots of luck to you vic for your upcoming cycle xx

Both of mine have been day 21 Vic but maybe it depends on how long your cycles are? So perhaps if you have shorter cycles they do it before day 21? xx

Not really sure but I would ask the clinic why day 19 and not 21. Is it to fit in around the clinics schedule perhaps?xx
