You just need to match units to units, finding one of several charts online to do so. Just make sure you're using the RIGHT chart, using the units that the results are using. Units are absolutely critical! Also, make sure the chart you're using is reputable. Wikipedia isn't terribly off for rough estimates, but it's better to use one of the charts on actual medical sites.
And the day thing isn't THAT big a deal. Last day or first day, the hormones are at pretty similar levels... Though that COULD throw off the peak value, since she'd be doing all the tests a day late, and peak is actually very time-critical. So her estrogen and progesterone might actually be completely normal.
Yes, that is exactly why I mentioned about the "day" thing. I figured it would change the standard range depending on when during her cycle she took the test.
My units of measure are the same as hers, yet compared to the ranges given to me, most of her results would be very low (Estradiol, Testosterone, Progesterone). You can see the ranges given to me above in my post with my hormone levels. Am I missing something? Ugh I'm so confused by all this now
