Your Appointment Day

What to Expect

Because hormones fluctuate throughout the month, your doctor may advise you to have this blood test drawn on a specific day of your cycle (such as Day 3 or Day 21). Please check any special instructions provided by your referring clinician. Upon arrival at Medical Diagnosis Victoria, a qualified phlebotomist will take a small, quick blood sample from your arm. The process is simple, and booking a slot online ensures priority service.

Component Index

What Is Included?

This profile evaluates multiple critical hormonal and health markers to provide a detailed assessment of reproductive function.

Hormonal Regulation

Evaluates the primary messengers that stimulate follicle growth, trigger ovulation, and prepare the uterine lining.

FSH
LH
Estradiol (E2)
Progesterone (PRG)
Prolactin (PRL)
Clinical focus:
Identifying ovulatory disorders, assessing luteal phase health, and managing PCOS or early menopause indications.

Thyroid Health

Assesses thyroid function, which plays a critical supporting role. Thyroid imbalances directly interfere with menstrual regularity and fertility success.

TSH
Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone
Clinical focus:
Ruling out hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism as underlying drivers of cycle dysfunction.

Blood Health Indices

Evaluates red and white blood cells and platelets to detect anemia (common with heavy periods) or underlying systemic infections.

Full Blood Count (FBC)
White Cell Differential
Clinical focus:
Assessing the physical toll of heavy cycles and ensuring foundational health to support reproductive wellness.

Understanding Hormonal Synchrony

The menstrual cycle requires perfect timing between your brain (FSH, LH) and ovaries (Estradiol, Progesterone). Imbalances in one area, or external pressure from elevated Prolactin or abnormal TSH, can cascade, halting ovulation entirely. This comprehensive panel maps these interactions clearly, alongside an FBC to ensure heavy cycles haven’t depleted your cellular reserves.

Pathology Reports

How To Read Your Laboratory Results

Your results will list your hormone levels alongside standard reference ranges, which often vary depending on the specific phase of your menstrual cycle (follicular, mid-cycle, or luteal). Because hormones fluctuate, results must be assessed in conjunction with the exact day of your cycle and your broader medical history.

Results Timeline: Profile metrics are typically available within just 4 hours. Once your results are ready, they will be securely shared with you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there specific timing instructions for this test?
Yes, menstrual cycle tests often need to be performed on specific days of your cycle (such as Day 3 or Day 21). Please consult your referring physician or click the “Special Instructions” link when booking.
Do I need to fast before the test?
Generally no, there are no strict fasting requirements for these hormones, but timing within your cycle is the most critical factor.
How quickly will I get my results?
Your comprehensive hormonal results will be processed rapidly and ready within 4 hours of your sample collection.
What should I do if my results indicate an imbalance?
If your hormonal markers are outside expected ranges for your cycle phase, we strongly recommend booking a Private GP consultation to review them in context.
Is the phlebotomy fee included in the price?
No, the standard £21 phlebotomy service fee is separate and payable directly at the clinic.
Will my results be sent securely?
Yes, your laboratory results will be delivered securely and privately to the email address provided.

No referral is needed. You can book this test independently, although we recommend consulting a doctor to ensure correct timing.

Most Searched Online Questions About Menstrual Hormones

What is the normal range for FSH and LH?
Normal ranges heavily depend on whether you are in the follicular, ovulatory, or luteal phase of your cycle. Your report will detail these specific phase ranges.
Can thyroid issues affect my period?
Yes, both an underactive (hypothyroidism) and overactive (hyperthyroidism) thyroid can cause irregular, absent, or unusually heavy menstrual cycles.
What role does progesterone play?
Progesterone rises after ovulation to prepare the uterine lining for a fertilised egg. Testing it (often on day 21) confirms whether ovulation successfully occurred.
How do I know if I have PCOS?
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is often suspected if blood tests show an imbalance, such as abnormally high LH relative to FSH, alongside irregular cycles.
Why is a full blood count included in a hormone test?
Heavy or irregular periods can lead to significant blood loss. An FBC helps detect resulting anemia or identify underlying systemic issues affecting your health.
