A single blood test measuring follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), commonly used to look into fertility, irregular periods or possible menopause. Includes an at-home finger-prick option, aimed at women wanting this one hormone checked.
1 biomarker as listed by Medichecks.
FSH, or follicle-stimulating hormone, is involved in regulating the menstrual cycle and egg production, and is one of the markers commonly used to look into fertility, irregular periods or possible menopause. This test measures FSH on its own, which makes it a quick way to check this one hormone rather than a full fertility or hormone panel.
Priced at £52, it sits in the middle of the FSH tests we track: cheaper than Blue Horizon Medicals (£60.25) and Better2Know's home kit (£69.95), and considerably cheaper than Better2Know's clinic-based version at £175. The one FSH test that undercuts it is Check My Body Health's at-home self-test at £11.99, though our data doesn't say whether that includes a doctor-reviewed result. Collection convenience scores well here because, unlike some other Medichecks single-marker tests, you can do this one entirely at home with a finger-prick kit as well as via a clinic or nurse visit.
As with the other single-marker tests in this catalogue, clinical depth was never going to be the main selling point; the score instead reflects that it measures exactly the one hormone it sets out to, backed by a doctor's comment on the result.
This is a reasonable choice if you want to check FSH specifically, for example alongside tracking your cycle, investigating possible menopause symptoms, or as part of a fertility conversation with your GP. The at-home finger-prick kit means you can do the whole thing without a clinic visit, which suits anyone who wants convenience alongside a doctor-reviewed result.
If price is your only concern, Check My Body Health's self-test at £11.99 is substantially cheaper, though our data doesn't confirm whether it includes the same doctor review. And if you want FSH tested as part of a wider hormone or fertility panel rather than on its own, you'd need a broader Medichecks test instead.
You can collect your sample at home with a finger-prick kit, or opt for a venous draw at an in-store clinic or via a home nurse visit. Once your sample reaches the lab, results are typically back in around 3 days, and a doctor reviews and comments on every result before you see it.
This is a single-marker FSH blood test priced at £52, with a home finger-prick option alongside the usual clinic and nurse routes. It costs less than Blue Horizon Medicals (£60.25) and Better2Know's home kit (£69.95), though Check My Body Health sells a cheaper FSH self-test at £11.99.

Cheapest FSH self-test in the comparison group
A rapid at-home urine test for FSH, a hormone commonly used to help assess whether symptoms could be linked to perimenopause.
FSH test sits exactly at the group median price
A single blood test measuring FSH, used to help assess fertility, unusual vaginal bleeding or possible pituitary conditions. It suits people investigating one of these specific concerns rather than needing a broad hormone panel.
Cheapest FSH option here, but not the cheapest overall
This at-home finger-prick kit checks follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), a marker used to look at ovarian reserve and menstrual cycle regularity. It suits women wanting a convenient, self-collected check.
Most expensive FSH test in its comparison group
This clinic-based blood test checks follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), used to look at ovarian reserve and menstrual cycle regularity. It suits women who would rather have a venous sample taken at a clinic or nurse visit than test at home.
