This is a clinic-based blood test measuring progesterone, typically used around day 21 of the cycle to check for ovulation. It suits people investigating fertility issues or irregular periods who prefer a clinic visit.
1 biomarker as listed by Better2Know.
This test measures progesterone from a venous blood sample taken at a clinic. Progesterone levels rise after ovulation, so testing at the right point in the cycle, typically day 21, can indicate whether ovulation has occurred, which is relevant if you are trying to conceive or investigating cycle irregularities.
Like other single-marker tests, it measures exactly what it sets out to, so clinical depth is not the main differentiator here. The bigger factor is price: at £175 this sits well above the £45 median for the six comparable progesterone tests we track, and it is only cheaper than Better2Know's own home finger-prick version of the same test at £195.
It scores well for clarity and documentation, with a clear description of what is measured and how results are delivered. Its Collection Convenience is middling because it needs a clinic appointment rather than offering a home option directly, and it scores poorly on value for money given the gap to the group median. Results and Follow-up reflects that a doctor does not review results as standard.
This suits you if you would rather have a clinician take the blood sample in person than do a finger-prick test at home, and you are testing progesterone as part of a fertility or cycle investigation. If cost is the priority, Medichecks and London Medical Laboratory offer the same marker for £39, and if you would prefer to avoid a clinic visit altogether, Better2Know's own Progesterone Home Test Kit is available, though it costs £20 more.
It is not the right choice if you need an abnormal result reviewed by a doctor as part of the standard service.
You attend a clinic for a venous blood draw. Results are available within one working day of the sample reaching the laboratory, published to your secure online patient area, with Better2Know's Patient Services team notifying you once they are ready. Results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard, though a private consultation can be arranged if needed.
This clinic-based progesterone test costs £175, £20 less than Better2Know's own home finger-prick version but still well above the £45 median across the six comparable tests we track. It requires a venous blood draw at a clinic with a result within one working day, and does not include a doctor review as standard. Medichecks and London Medical Laboratory offer the same single marker for £39.
