Yes. You have to go during your period. It is not a big deal though--they are used to it and I really do not think they look. The reason for going on CD2 or CD3 is because the follicles in your ovaries are small (or should be) and you have fresh uterine lining. If your RE was going to start you on fertility drugs like Clomid or injectible medications, you would start those usually on CD3.
