Luteinizing hormone (LH), known as gonadotropin, is a vital hormone, that affects the sex organs in both men and women. LH is responsible for many reproductive health issues and plays a role in puberty, menstruation, and fertility. Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) on the other hand works closely with LH to control sexual functions. It is related to reproduction and the development of eggs in women and sperm in men.

Luteinizing hormone (LH), known as gonadotropin, is a vital hormone, that affects the sex organs in both men and women.

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) on the other hand works closely with LH to control sexual functions. It is related to reproduction and the development of eggs in women and sperm in men.
The FSH and LH test is a blood test that measures follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), two sex hormones that are essential for reproduction. These two hormones are secreted by the anterior pituitary gland and affect the ovaries and testes. The test is used to evaluate infertility issues in both sexes initially. It also helps determine the health of a person's reproductive organs, specifically the testicles and ovaries. This test also evaluates the pituitary function in the body.
Please do not exercise prior to testing. It is best that your blood is taken in a rested state.
Note: Turn around times on results are an estimate and are not guaranteed. The lab may need additional time due to holidays, confirmation/repeat testing, etc. You can contact us to discuss when your results should be ready and we will contact the lab on your behalf immediately.
