What is Harmonal Test ?
What is Infertility Evaluation ?
Fertility hormone testing checks levels of reproductive hormones that control ovulation, egg quality, implantation, and the ability to carry a pregnancy. Hormonal imbalance (e.g., thyroid issues, low progesterone, high male hormones) can cause infertility.
Who Should Consider It ?
Women with:
- Irregular or absent periods
- Pelvic/abdominal pain or cramping
- Difficulty conceiving
Step Process
Key Harmones Tests
Step 1 : Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH)
- Blood test on day 3 of menstrual cycle.
- Evaluates ovarian function and egg quality.
- High levels → reduced fertility potential.
Step 2 : Estradiol (E2)
- Measured on day 3–5.
- Essential for reproductive organ growth and ovulation.
- Abnormal levels → poor ovulation or IVF outcomes.
Step 3 : Luteinizing Hormone (LH)
- Triggers ovulation and progesterone production.
- Tested via blood or urine.
- Imbalances may indicate PCOS or ovulation problems.
- Also tested in men for testicular issues.
Step 4 : Progesterone
- Produced after ovulation; prepares uterus for pregnancy.
- Tested about day 20 (mid-luteal phase).
- Confirmed ovulation occurred.
Step 5 : Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH)
- Indicates ovarian reserve (egg supply).
- Can be tested any time in the cycle.
Step 6 : Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH)
- Essential for menstrual regularity, implantation, and fetal growth.
- Tested if thyroid disease, irregular cycles, or recurrent miscarriages.
Step 7 : Inhibin B
- Produced by ovarian follicles.
- Tested on day 3 to measure ovarian reserve.
Step 8 : Androgens (male hormones)
- Normally converted to estrogen in women.
- High levels → PCOS, anovulation, infertility.
- Can be checked any time.
Step 9 : What happens during an FSH test?
A small blood sample is taken from your arm (takes <5 minutes).
Interpreting Results
- High FSH → ovarian/testicular failure, menopause, PCOS, ovarian tumor, thyroid/adrenal disorder, genetic conditions (Turner, Klinefelter).
- Low FSH → pituitary or hypothalamus dysfunction.
- In women : may cause irregular bleeding, weight changes, infertility.
- In men : may indicate low sperm count, low sex drive, infertility.
