PCOS blood test
Near-deepest PCOS panel, cheaper than the other deep options
An 18-marker blood test covering testosterone, thyroid, blood sugar and cholesterol, for checking hormone and metabolic markers linked to PCOS.
- At-home test
A three-marker blood test measuring FSH, oestradiol and progesterone for women on hormone replacement therapy who want a snapshot of their current hormone levels.
3 biomarkers as listed by Medichecks.
This test measures three hormones: FSH, oestradiol and progesterone. These markers are commonly used to build a picture of hormone levels in women taking hormone replacement therapy. The provider is clear that HRT dosing is usually adjusted according to your symptoms rather than blood test results alone, so this is best seen as background information rather than something that dictates treatment changes on its own.
At three biomarkers, this test sits in the middle of the pack for clinical depth compared with the women's hormone tests we track, in the 52nd percentile. On price, £89 is above the £69.95 median for the 19 similarly sized women's hormone tests in our data, which is reflected in a below-average value-for-money score. Collection is flexible, with home finger-prick, clinic, home nurse and venous draw options all available, and results come back within 2 days.
The overall score benefits most from collection convenience and trust signals, including Medichecks' Trustpilot rating and its doctor review included with every test. It loses some ground on value, since similarly sized women's hormone tests are available for less on average in our data, even though this specific test has no directly comparable named peer we track.
This suits women already on HRT who want a baseline hormone reading, a way to track changes over time, or supporting information to discuss with their prescriber if symptoms persist despite treatment.
Because we do not track a directly equivalent test from another provider for this exact panel, we cannot say whether a specific cheaper like-for-like option exists; based on the wider category data, similarly sized women's hormone tests are available for less on average.
You can collect your sample at home with a finger-prick kit, at an in-store clinic, via a home nurse visit, or with a venous draw at a clinic. The lab measures FSH, oestradiol and progesterone from the sample, and a doctor reviews the results as standard. Turnaround is 2 days.
Women taking HRT can use this £89 test to check FSH, oestradiol and progesterone, though the price sits 27% above the £69.95 median for similarly sized women's hormone tests we track. There is no directly comparable competitor test in our data to weigh it against. Collection is flexible and results are back within 2 days.

Near-deepest PCOS panel, cheaper than the other deep options
An 18-marker blood test covering testosterone, thyroid, blood sugar and cholesterol, for checking hormone and metabolic markers linked to PCOS.
Second-deepest in its group, but Forth is cheaper and deeper
A ten-marker blood test covering oestradiol, testosterone, thyroid and reproductive hormones, for checking hormonal balance, cycle irregularities or menopause-related symptoms.
Most markers in its hormone group, at the top price
Checks 12 markers covering ovarian, thyroid and androgen hormones, with an at-home finger-prick option, for investigating symptoms like irregular periods, mood changes or possible menopause.
Home hormone test with more markers than most rivals
This at-home finger-prick test measures nine hormones, including oestradiol, testosterone, FSH and LH, plus thyroid markers, to check whether hormone levels look linked to symptoms like acne, weight changes or fatigue. It suits women wanting a broad first look at hormone balance.
