Understanding your fertility can be a perplexing journey for some women. Our Female Fertility Blood Test is a comprehensive test designed to offer crucial insights into your reproductive health, providing a clearer picture of your fertility status. A range of factors influences fertility, and understanding your body’s signals is essential for any future planning.

The Female Fertility Blood Test assess key hormonal markers such as Luteinising Hormone (LH), Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH), testosterone, and others that play vital roles in fertility and menstrual health. Convenient and precise, this test is conducted through a simple blood sample, processed in our CQC-accredited lab with results typically available within 24 hours.

About the Female Fertility Blood Test

The Female Fertility Insights Blood Test from One Day Tests is an essential tool for understanding fertility challenges. This comprehensive test evaluates hormonal factors such as prolactin levels, thyroid function, and signs of early menopause, crucial for diagnosing conditions like Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), a common cause of fertility issues.

A key component of this test is assessing your Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) levels to gauge your ovarian reserve or 'egg count,' offering insights into your fertility potential. It's important to recognise that factors like medical conditions and nutritional deficiencies can impact not only your ability to conceive but also the health of your pregnancy.

By taking this test, you're taking a proactive step towards understanding and enhancing your fertility, preparing for a healthy pregnancy and future family well-being.

Doctor's notes

Hi, I am Dr. Adam Staten and here's my view on this test as a GP and Clinical Director at One Day Tests.

Prolactin plays a critical role in the regulation of reproductive hormones, particularly Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing Hormone (LH), which are key to regulating the menstrual cycle and ovulation in women.

However, elevated levels of prolactin can disrupt this delicate hormonal balance, potentially leading to irregular or absent menstrual cycles (amenorrhea) and anovulation, where the ovaries fail to release eggs regularly or at all. This condition, known as hyperprolactinemia, can significantly impact a woman's ability to conceive due to the suppression of ovulation.

Prolactin influences the luteal phase, the crucial second half of the menstrual cycle that plays a vital role in maintaining a pregnancy. High prolactin levels can lead to a luteal phase defect, making it challenging to sustain a pregnancy. Understanding and managing prolactin levels are therefore essential for women facing fertility issues, as they directly affect menstrual regularity and the overall health of the reproductive cycle.
