A three-marker blood test measuring FSH, LH and oestradiol on day 3 of your menstrual cycle, giving an early read on ovarian reserve and hormone balance. Suits anyone starting to think about fertility or investigating irregular cycles.
3 biomarkers as listed by Medichecks.
FSH, LH and oestradiol are the three hormones this test measures, taken specifically on day 3 of your menstrual cycle when their levels are most informative about ovarian reserve and where any imbalance affecting fertility might show up. It is aimed at anyone trying to understand their reproductive hormone picture, whether that is ahead of trying to conceive or out of general interest.
Within its comparison group of 15 female hormone panels, this test is one of the cheaper choices at £55, well below the £98 group median, though Randox Health's Female Hormone QuickDraw (£46, 8 markers) and Female Hormone test (£48, 8 markers) both cost less. The catch is depth: at three markers this is the smallest panel in the group, whereas even the next-smallest peers test five markers, and Medichecks' own Female Hormone Blood Test (£79) and Advanced Female Hormone Blood Test (£99) cover nine and twelve.
The value-for-money score is high because of how far the price sits below the group median, and the collection convenience score is the maximum because it can be done at home with a finger-prick kit, in clinic, or with a home nurse visit, with results back in 2 days. Clinical depth scores lower than most of the page's criteria because three markers is modest next to the group's typical eight.
This suits you if you want a quick, affordable first look at core reproductive hormones on day 3 of your cycle, for example while starting to think about fertility or investigating irregular cycles, and you are comfortable with a narrower panel than some alternatives. Because it is available as an at-home finger-prick kit with results in 2 days, it also suits anyone who wants convenience over comprehensiveness.
If you want the lowest price in this group, Randox Health's Female Hormone QuickDraw (£46) or Female Hormone test (£48) both test more markers for less. If you want a deeper hormone picture from Medichecks itself, its Female Hormone Blood Test (£79, 9 markers) or Advanced Female Hormone Blood Test (£99, 12 markers) go further, at a higher price.
You can collect your own sample at home with a finger-prick kit, or have a venous blood draw at a Medichecks clinic or via a home nurse visit; the test should be taken on day 3 of your menstrual cycle. Once the sample reaches the lab it is analysed for FSH, LH and oestradiol, and Medichecks states results are typically back within 2 days, with every result reviewed and commented on by a doctor.
Taken on day 3 of your cycle, this test checks FSH, LH and oestradiol to give an early read on ovarian reserve and hormone balance. At £55 it undercuts the £98 median for its female hormone panel group, though Randox Health prices two similar tests at £46 and £48. The trade-off is depth: with only three markers it covers less ground than every other test in the group, which all test at least five.
