What's Included?
Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH): Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) is one of the hormones essential to pubertal development and the function of women’s ovaries and men’s testes. FSH testing is used for women suspected of having polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and in individuals undergoing evaluation for infertility. It is also used for evaluation of individuals with suspected pituitary disorders or diseases of the ovaries.
Luteinizing Hormone (LH): Luteinizing Hormone (LH) is a hormone found in both men and women. In women, it plays an important role in the menstrual cycle and in men, it helps the release of testosterone. This test is used to determine menopause, pinpoint ovulation, and monitor endocrine therapy.
Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH): Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) is a homodimeric glycoprotein from the TGF-β family. It plays a major role in cell growth and differentiation. AMH is a marker for ovarian functional reserve because it is formed only by the primary follicles, which are capable of maturation, and the secondary follicles. This test is used as an aid in indicating ovarian functional reserve, help to diagnose menstrual disorders or to monitor fertility status of women.
Human chorionic gonadotropin beta (HCG): Human chorionic gonadotropin beta (HCG) is a glycoprotein hormone produced by the placenta, a component of the fertilized egg, after conception. HCG measurement with blood or urine can be used as an aid in pregnancy test.
FAQ
Preparation: No fasting required, but you need to have the blood test on day 3 of your menstrual cycle (day 1 is the day your period begins). Timing for FSH testing is crucial. Because FSH levels vary throughout the menstrual cycle, the normal range varies by day.
Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) is produced by the pituitary gland, a pea-sized gland in the brain that plays an important role in sexual development. An FSH test measures the level of this hormone in the bloodstream.
The test detects a rise in luteinizing hormone (LH) in the urine. A rise in this hormone signals the ovary to release the egg. This at-home test is often used by women to help predict when an egg release is likely. This is when pregnancy is most likely to occur.
