Advice on testing HRT

Hello, I need to test my progesterone/estradiol levels, do I need to take my usual dosage regularly on the night/ morning of the test?

I am on HRT 200 Utrogestan and 1mg Sandrena gel. ( I take the progesterone before bed and put the estradiol gel in the morning).

Thank you.🙂

You should contact the prescribing doctor and ask. Mine likes the test to be done 5-6 hours after meds.
