Luteinizing Hormone: How It Feels

How It Feels
Blood test
You may feel nothing at all from the needle puncture, or you may feel a brief sting or pinch as the needle goes through the skin. Some people feel a stinging pain while the needle is in the vein. However, many people do not feel any pain (or have only minor discomfort) once the needle is positioned in the vein.
Urine test
Collecting a urine sample does not normally cause any discomfort.
