About this test
Measures oestradiol, FSH, LH, total testosterone, progesterone and prolactin. The results can provide a snapshot of reproductive hormones, but cycle day, contraception, pregnancy status and symptoms are essential to interpretation.
At a glance
- Sample: Blood
- Collection: Follow the supplied instructions for providing your blood sample
- Estimated turnaround: 1-3 days from laboratory receipt of a usable sample
What this test measures
- Oestradiol
- A main form of oestrogen that varies across the menstrual cycle. An in-range or out-of-range result is not a diagnosis by itself; clinicians interpret it using the laboratory range, symptoms, medical history and related tests.
- Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
- A pituitary hormone involved in follicle development. The meaning changes with sex, age and menstrual-cycle timing; it may contribute to assessment of ovarian, pituitary or testicular function.
- Luteinising hormone (LH)
- A pituitary hormone involved in ovulation. The result varies with sex and cycle timing and is interpreted with symptoms and other reproductive hormones.
- Total testosterone
- The total amount of testosterone circulating in blood. A low or high result may contribute to androgen assessment; morning collection, repeat testing and related hormones may be needed before diagnosis.
- Progesterone
- A hormone that changes after ovulation and during pregnancy. Timing is essential: a correctly timed result may support evidence of ovulation, while pregnancy and hormone treatment require different interpretation.
- Prolactin
- A pituitary hormone involved in milk production and reproductive function. A raised result can occur with stress, pregnancy, medicines, thyroid disease or pituitary conditions and often needs a correctly prepared repeat test.
How clinicians use this test
Clinicians use the 6 listed markers as part of hormone assessment, often with related hormones and carefully chosen collection timing. One value rarely establishes the cause of symptoms by itself.
Is this the right test for you?
An adult exploring the stated hormone marker with a clinician or monitoring an established plan, with collection timing and medicines taken into account.
Preparation and collection
Follow the supplied kit instructions. No product-specific preparation requirements are stated publicly. Do not stop prescribed medicines unless a clinician tells you to.
Understanding your result
The most useful information is usually the pattern across the 6 listed markers, not one isolated flag. Related markers can support or contradict each other, and a mildly out-of-range value may reflect normal biological variation, collection conditions or temporary illness rather than disease.
Your results and next steps
Review the result with collection timing, medicines and related hormones in mind. Do not start, stop or change prescribed hormone or thyroid treatment from a single home-test result without clinician advice.
Limitations
Hormone values can vary with collection time, age, medicines and biological state. A single result does not establish the cause of symptoms.
When to get medical help
Do not wait for a home-test result if you feel seriously unwell. Call 999 for a life-threatening emergency, or use NHS 111 when you need urgent advice and are unsure what to do.

Questions, answered
How accurate is an at-home test?
Your sample is processed by a professional UK partner laboratory using the same analytical methods used for clinician-requested testing. Sample quality depends on following the collection instructions carefully.
Are my results private?
Yes. Kits use discreet packaging and your results are delivered through a secure digital service.
Does this diagnose a condition?
No. The test checks and measures biomarkers. Results and the doctor’s comment can help you decide what to discuss with your GP.
When should I post my sample?
Collect and post on the same day, ideally Monday–Thursday, to avoid a sample waiting in the postal system over a weekend.
What happens if my sample cannot be processed?
The support team will explain the next step if the laboratory cannot process your sample. Any recollection or refund depends on the circumstances and the applicable policy.
When should I speak to my GP?
Speak to your GP if symptoms persist, worsen or concern you. Seek urgent medical help for severe or sudden symptoms.
