Why Consider a Female Hormone Blood Test?
Hormone shifts are part of every woman’s journey — from puberty to menopause. When symptoms show up, a private female hormone blood test can offer powerful insight.
A hormone test may help identify:
- Irregular or missed periods
- Trouble getting pregnant
- Unexplained weight gain or loss
- Hair thinning or acne
- Mood swings, anxiety or low energy
- Poor sleep or chronic fatigue

What Hormones Do We Check?
We customise every female hormone blood test based on your concerns. Your panel may include:
- FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone): checks ovarian reserve
- LH (Luteinising Hormone): crucial for ovulation
- Oestradiol (E2): a key oestrogen form
- AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone): indicates egg reserve
- Progesterone: confirms ovulation phase
- Testosterone: may be elevated in PCOS
- Prolactin: affects cycle and fertility
- Thyroid hormones (TSH, T4): important for overall hormone balance
- Vitamin D, B12, and Iron: linked to fatigue and wellbeing
These are essential for anyone considering fertility testing, dealing with hormonal acne, or going through perimenopause. You can find more information from the British Menopause Society
When Should I Get Tested?
To get accurate results:
- Day 2–5 of your cycle: FSH, LH, and oestradiol
- Day 21 or 7 days before your period: Progesterone
- Anytime: AMH, testosterone, thyroid, prolactin
