An at-home finger-prick test measuring six female hormones, including LH, FSH, prolactin and testosterone. Suited to women investigating irregular periods, low energy or general hormonal wellbeing, aged 20 and over.
6 biomarkers as listed by YorkTest.
The Female Hormones Test measures six markers: sex-hormone binding globulin (SHBG), free androgen index (FAI), FSH, LH, prolactin and testosterone. These are commonly used together to look at hormonal balance in relation to irregular periods, fertility questions, energy levels, weight and mood. It is suitable for women aged 20 and over who are not taking hormonal contraception or HRT, with the sample ideally taken on day 3 of the cycle if you are still cycling.
We do not have named peer tests in our data for this specific six-marker combination, so we can't make a direct 'cheaper than' comparison. Its value score reflects that £55 sits 44% below the £98 median we see across the 11 similarly sized women's hormone tests we track.
It scores well for Clinical depth, placing in the 66th percentile of women's hormone tests by marker count, and for Trust signals on the strength of YorkTest's Trustpilot rating of 4.8 from 3,257 reviews, its UKAS-accredited lab, and 44 years of trading. It scores lower for Results and follow-up because, as with all YorkTest tests, results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard, though the listing does say it signposts you to see your GP if needed.
This suits women aged 20 and over who want a broader look at their hormone balance than a single-marker test, particularly around irregular periods, fertility questions or general wellbeing, and who are not on hormonal contraception or HRT. We don't have named peer tests to say whether a cheaper or deeper six-marker alternative exists, so compare it against other women's hormone panels on the site. If you specifically want information about menopause status, YorkTest's own Menopause Test may be more directly relevant. It is not the right choice if you want a doctor to review your results as standard.
You take an at-home finger-prick blood sample, ideally on day 3 of your menstrual cycle if you are still cycling, and return it to YorkTest's laboratory. The six hormone markers are analysed together, and results are provided with signposting to see your GP if needed, delivered within a stated 7 days. Doctor review is not included as standard.
