I'm really concerned about my wife's recent lab test results. Her vitamin B12 level came back at 1500. Is this something we should be worried about? What steps should we take to bring it back to a normal range?

While moderate elevation may not be harmful, its important to address the potential causes with the guidance of a doctor to ensure there's no underlying medical condition contributing to the high B12 level.

I've just gone through my general health check-up, and while everything seems normal, my lymphocytes are at 48, and the absolute lymphocyte count is 3312. Should I be worried about these high lymphocyte levels, or is this considered normal?

A negative HPT (Home Pregnancy Test) 4 days after IUI doesn't necessarily mean you're not pregnant. Possible reasons for a false negative: 1. _Too early_: HCG levels might not be high enough to detect. 2. _Insufficient HCG sensitivity_: HPT sensitivity varies; some tests might not detect low HCG levels. 3. _Diluted urine_: If you drank excessive water before testing, your urine might be too diluted. Wait a few more days (around 7-10 days post-IUI) and try testing again. If you're still unsure, consult your fertility specialist for guidance.
