Laboratory testing of female sex hormones

Medicover performs a comprehensive examination of cycle-dependent female sex hormones. This test is primarily conducted to diagnose bleeding disorders and fertility issues. The procedure involves two blood draws, one on the third day of the menstrual cycle and another on the twenty-first day. The first blood draw focuses on hormones like AMH, FSH, LH, testosterone, prolactin, oestradiol, while the second blood draw measures progesterone levels. These hormone assessments give a holistic view of hormone homeostasis and organ function. It must be noted that women on contraceptives may not receive accurate results; thus, it is advised they take the test after discontinuing contraceptive use.
