What Are Fertility Hormone Tests?

Fertility hormone tests are simple blood tests that measure the blood concentration of certain reproductive and metabolic hormones. Rather than serving as a standalone diagnosis, hormone levels are always interpreted alongside your clinical history, age, cycle regularity, and ultrasound findings.

Common Hormone Tests for Fertility

Hormone / Test What It Helps Assess Clinical Relevance
AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone) Ovarian reserve Estimates remaining egg supply; stable across cycle days
FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone) Ovarian function & response Evaluates ovarian stimulation response; checked early in cycle
LH (Luteinizing Hormone) Ovulation & pituitary function Signals mature egg release; evaluated with FSH for PCOS
Estradiol ($E_2$) Follicular growth & ovarian activity Assesses baseline ovarian function alongside FSH
Prolactin Pituitary gland balance Evaluates whether elevated levels may disrupt regular ovulation
TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone) Thyroid function Identifies hypo/hyperthyroidism affecting menstrual regularity

When Is Hormone Testing Recommended?

  • Irregular, infrequent, or absent periods
  • Inability to conceive after 6 to 12 months of unprotected intercourse
  • Suspected ovulation disorders or Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
  • Assessment of ovarian egg supply due to maternal age or family history
  • Unexplained fertility challenges or recurrent pregnancy loss
  • Baseline evaluation prior to ovulation induction, IUI, or IVF

AMH Test Cost Delhi

Patients frequently inquire about the AMH test cost in Delhi clinics. On average, an AMH test ranges between ₹1,500 and ₹2,500 (averaging around ₹2,500 in Delhi) depending on the evaluating laboratory, methodology, and whether it is performed individually or as part of a wider diagnostic panel. At Little Angel IVF, we maintain clear, transparent pricing with no hidden charges and recommend only the specific investigations that are clinically necessary for your diagnosis.

FSH, LH, and Prolactin Testing

Cycle timing is critical for certain investigations:

  • FSH LH Hormone Test: Typically scheduled on Day 2 or Day 3 of your menstrual cycle, an FSH LH hormone test measures baseline pituitary activity. Evaluating both hormones together helps identify diminished ovarian response, hypothalamic concerns, or hormonal imbalances characteristic of PCOS.
  • Prolactin Test Fertility: A prolactin test fertility evaluation checks for hyperprolactinemia. Elevated prolactin levels can suppress the normal secretion of FSH and gonadotropins, impairing ovulation even when cycles seem normal.

Guiding Infertility Treatment

A diagnostic hormone test for infertility does not simply uncover challenges—it maps out solutions. The findings guide Dr. Mona Dahiya and our clinical team in tailoring treatments to your physiology, whether that means:

  • Optimizing thyroid or prolactin levels with medical therapy
  • Regulating ovulation cycles
  • Selecting appropriate medication protocols for IUI or IVF

While Little Angel IVF has reported a 90%+ success rate across clinical programs, outcomes are never guaranteed for any individual. Treatment success depends on personal biological factors including age, embryo quality, ovarian reserve, and sperm parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions

What hormone tests are done for infertility?

Common tests include Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH), Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH), Luteinizing Hormone (LH), Estradiol, Prolactin, and Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH). Your doctor will select relevant tests based on your symptoms and cycle history.

When should I take an AMH test?

Unlike cycle-dependent hormones, AMH remains relatively consistent throughout the month. It can usually be drawn on any day of your menstrual cycle, whether you are menstruating or not.

What is the difference between FSH and LH tests?

FSH stimulates the growth and development of ovarian follicles containing eggs, while LH triggers the final maturation and release of the egg (ovulation). Their ratio early in the cycle also helps identify conditions like PCOS.

Can high prolactin affect fertility?

Yes. Mildly or moderately elevated prolactin levels can interfere with normal estrogen and progesterone production, potentially causing irregular cycles, anovulation (absence of ovulation), or luteal phase defects.

How much does a fertility hormone test cost in Delhi?

The cost depends on whether you take an isolated test (such as AMH or TSH) or a comprehensive fertility profile. Routine single hormone tests range moderately, but package rates depend on laboratory accreditations and specific markers required.
