What is a Female Hormone Test?
Our Female Hormone Test will establish whether you have a hormone imbalance which could be affecting areas of your health including fertility, mood and menstrual cycle. This test needs a nurse to collect a blood sample.
Why consider a Female Hormone Test?
You may wish to consider this test if you want to check your level of important hormones or:
You are experiencing irregular or heavy periods
You are experiencing weight gain
You are experiencing signs of fatigue and are concerned it may be due to the menopause or a thyroid concern
You are planning to get pregnant and want to check that your hormone levels are normal.
How does this test work?
This test requires a blood sample. Once you have collected your blood sample, place it in the postage-paid envelope provided and post it to our accredited UK laboratory for analysis.
What tests will you run on my sample?
This test will review the following:
Luteinising Hormone (LH). This hormone helps to control the menstrual cycle.
Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH). This hormone is important for the production of eggs in the ovaries.
