med prob with 'female issues' !!
Hi,
Have got ours medicals tomorrow but have just started my period. The doctors letter says women should not attend as blood may interfere with the urine sample.
How true is this? Will I have to go back?
So annoying, everything else has been submitted so can't believe my luck!!!!
Thanks for any replies:curse:

I spoke with the nurses on the day, who were lovely. Basically their can be no contamination in the urine.
After two goes we got a clear sample.......sent you a PM how it worked for me.
Hope it helps

I also had this problem for my student visa medical and I just had to get a more expensive test done on the sample that can distinguish between menstrual blood and blood from say your kidneys.
From memory it cost an extra 50 quid!
