About this test

The Female Hormones Screen Nurse Kit measures follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), oestradiol, prolactin and luteinising hormone using a venous blood sample taken during a home nurse visit rather than at a clinic. These hormones are commonly used to look at ovulation, menstrual cycle regularity and fertility.

This is the same four-hormone panel as Better2Know's clinic-based Female Hormone Screen, but at £125 rather than £225. Against the wider comparison group of 15 female hormone panels, whose median price is £98, this version is closer to the norm though still above it; competitors including Randox Health (from £46) and Medichecks (from £79) offer similar or larger panels for less.

clarity and documentation scores highly because the listing sets out a detailed description, the full biomarker list, turnaround and collection options, though not what the results report looks like. The value for money score is better than the clinic version's because the lower price sits nearer the group median. Results and follow-up is marked down because the test is not doctor-reviewed as standard.

Who is it for?

This suits you if you want the convenience of a nurse visiting your home rather than travelling to a clinic, while checking the same four hormones as Better2Know's clinic-based screen for £100 less. If price is the main concern, Randox Health's equivalent panels start from £46 and Medichecks from £79, both with similar or greater biomarker coverage. Consider a broader panel if you want more than four hormones covered. Speak to a GP about ongoing symptoms such as irregular periods or fatigue.

How it works

A nurse visits you to take a venous blood sample, which is then posted to the laboratory for analysis. Results are typically available within one working day of the sample reaching the lab, accessed through the online patient area; the provider does not state that a doctor reviews them as standard.
