Anti-Mullerian Hormone
Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) is produced by the ovaries and can indicate how high or low your ovarian reserve is. This means it can estimate how many remaining viable eggs you have, and therefore help assess reproductive potential.
From:
Luteinizing Hormone
Luteinizing Hormone (LH) is a hormone produced in the brain and is a vital element of fertility. In women it triggers egg release and in men it causes testosterone production. When your LH level is not as expected, it can cause infertility, problems with your menstrual cycle and a low sex drive in men.
From:
Follicle Stimulating Hormone
Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) is a hormone produced in the brain and is an essential part of egg production. It stimulates the follicles in the ovaries to enlarge, leading to egg release. Understanding your FSH level during your menstrual cycle can help investigate your potential fertility.
