About this test

This test measures hormones most often linked to PCOS, including anti-Müllerian hormone, testosterone, luteinising hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, oestradiol and prolactin, among 17 markers in total. These are commonly used to look at ovarian function, cycle irregularity and androgen levels, though the test on its own cannot diagnose PCOS.

Against the four PCOS tests we track, this sits at the pricier end for a similar depth: £165 for 17 markers, compared with Thriva's PCOS blood test at £135 for 18 markers, and Medichecks' Advanced Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Blood Test at £219 for 19 markers. Cheaper, narrower options include Medichecks' standard PCOS test (£76, 5 markers) and MyHealthChecked's version (£79, 4 markers).

value for money is the weakest part of the score, 22% above the group median for a similar marker count to the cheaper Thriva option. Collection convenience is slightly lower than other Forth tests because results take 5 days rather than 2. Clarity is reasonable, with six of the 17 markers named, and results are reviewed by a doctor.

Who is it for?

This suits you if you want a broad PCOS-related hormone panel from Forth specifically. If marker count and price both matter, Thriva's PCOS blood test covers a similar 18 markers for £30 less. If you only want the core androgen and cycle hormones at lower cost, Medichecks' PCOS test (£76, 5 markers) is a narrower, cheaper option.

How it works

Collect your sample using an at-home finger-prick kit, Forth's AutoDraw device, a home nurse visit, or a venous draw at a partner clinic. The lab analyses 17 markers including AMH, testosterone, LH, FSH, oestradiol and prolactin, and a doctor reviews your results. Results typically take 5 days, longer than most other Forth tests.
