About this test

What's included in this blood test?

  • Luteinising hormone (LH): Mid-cycle, your LH levels increase so you can ovulate. If your LH levels are imbalanced, you might have irregular periods and have trouble getting pregnant. High LH levels can indicate menopause or PCOS.
  • Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH): FSH stimulates your ovaries to produce oestradiol. FSH and oestradiol work together to grow and develop the eggs in your ovaries - so when you ovulate the egg is ready to be fertilised by sperm.
  • Oestrogen (oestradiol): Oestradiol (E2) is essential for regulating your menstrual cycle and ovulation. It also plays a key role in building up the lining of your uterus - allows for a fertilised egg to become implanted if pregnant.
  • Testosterone: Testosterone is essential for your sex drive, bone and muscle health, mood, and cognitive function. Your levels gradually drop as you age. If your levels are out of range you might feel tired, have a low sex drive, and have low mood.
  • Thyroid function: An underactive thyroid can affect your menstrual cycle and ovulation. If you have a thyroid condition, it can increase your risk of pregnancy complications - like a miscarriage. But with treatment, these issues can be reversed.
  • Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH): AMH is a hormone released by cells in your developing egg sacs (ovarian follicles). Testing your AMH levels can help determine the number of eggs you have left - your ovarian reserve.
  • Prolactin: Prolactin is a hormone made by the pituitary gland. It helps stimulate milk production during breastfeeding and helps to regulate your menstrual cycle. High levels can prevent ovulation.
