Female Fertility Insights

Female Fertility Insights Blood Test

Understanding your fertility can feel like a complex journey — but the right insights can make all the difference. Our Female Fertility Insights Blood Test gives you a comprehensive view of your reproductive health, helping you plan with clarity and confidence.

This advanced test measures key hormones including luteinising hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), testosterone, prolactin, and thyroid function, as well as Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) to assess your ovarian reserve (‘egg count’). These markers are essential for understanding your fertility potential, identifying conditions such as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) or early menopause, and detecting factors that may affect both conception and pregnancy health.

Simple and precise, the test is carried out through a quick blood sample, processed in our CQC-accredited lab, with results typically ready within 24 hours. By taking this test, you’re making a proactive step towards understanding your body, supporting your fertility, and preparing for a healthy pregnancy and future family well-being.

If you’re not sure exactly what you need, we advise all our clients to consult with a GP or one of our Registered Nutritionists before taking any blood tests. However, below you can find more information about this panel, and we hope it will help.

Clinic appointment - how to prepare for the Female Fertility Insights Blood Test

If you are coming into one of our clinics for the test, this is what you need to do before you arrive:

Read the instructions in the SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS section

Drink plenty of water about an hour before the appointment.

Avoid coffee/tea/energy drinks. Water is good!

That’s it! We’ll do the rest.

Home test kit - how it works with the Female Fertility Insights Blood Test

Our blood test kits are simple and convenient.

The most important step in doing a blood test at home is to read the instructions very carefully. The process is very simple, but there are a few pitfalls you need to be aware of - you will save yourself a lot of time if you do it right the first time around!

Full printed instructions will arrive with your kit - please read them carefully.

Drink plenty before taking the sample and warm your hands up in the sink with warm water for a few minutes. This will make your blood flow much better.

Fill the tubes to the top line. We don’t need much blood; filling tubes to the top line is about 15 drops of blood.

Post the samples on the same day you take them, before midday, Monday to Thursday. If you post it any other time it might get to us late or be stuck at a sorting office over the weekend. You will then have to do it again.

Package the sample in the same box the kit came in. Otherwise, Royal Mail or DPD will reject it. The sample tubes go into a pouch, then into a cardboard box, and then into a return envelope. All of this is provided in the kit: please use it.

We look forward to receiving your sample in our lab!

DR. ADAM STATEN - GP VIEW AND RED FLAG SYMPTOMS

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.

Red flag symptoms for the Female Fertility Insights Blood Test

Even if your blood tests are normal, you should see a doctor if you have any of the symptoms below because they may be a sign of serious underlying illness.

Unexplained weight loss

Drenching sweats during the night

Persistent fevers

Progressively severe symptoms of any kind

Can I see a GP to discuss my Results?

Yes, usually the same or next day.

Our fantastic partner clinical team of consultants and GPs. Once you have your results, you can book an online video consultation to discuss your results.

Our clinical team consists of practicing NHS and private GPs, who work closely with our laboratory and can tell you what your blood test results mean for you. Having an integrated laboratory and GP services makes your health journey seamless and extremely efficient.

This service is not included in the price of the test, it is charged separately, should you wish to book it.

Will I have a general explanation of my results?

Yes, our doctors put a huge amount of effort into your online Health Dashboard, which will have explanations of what each biomarker is, the normal reference ranges and what it means if you are outside of them.

What can affect fertility?

Chronic conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, thyroid disorders, and diabetes can impact fertility. Assessment and management of these conditions are essential.

What else can influence fertility?

Lifestyle factors, including body mass index (BMI), smoking, alcohol consumption, and stress levels, can influence fertility.

Why do you test the hormones?

Monitoring hormone levels, including Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH), Luteinizing Hormone (LH), estradiol, and anti-müllerian hormone (AMH), can help assess ovarian reserve and the overall hormonal environment for fertility.
