What does this test Follicle Stimulating Hormone FSH Test identify?

The Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Test is a blood test that measures the levels of FSH in the body. FSH is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that plays a key role in regulating the menstrual cycle and the production of eggs in women, as well as sperm production in men.

In women, the FSH Test can help identify issues with fertility, menopause, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). High levels of FSH may indicate a diminished ovarian reserve or early menopause, while low levels could be a sign of PCOS or hypothalamic dysfunction.

In men, the FSH Test can help diagnose conditions such as primary or secondary hypogonadism, which can affect sperm production and fertility. High levels of FSH in men may indicate testicular failure, while low levels could suggest a pituitary or hypothalamic issue.

Why is this test Follicle Stimulating Hormone FSH Test taken?

  1. Infertility: FSH levels are often measured in both men and women to help evaluate fertility issues. High levels of FSH in women may indicate diminished ovarian reserve, while high levels in men may suggest problems with sperm production.
  2. Menstrual Irregularities: Elevated FSH levels in women can be a sign of menopause or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), while low levels may indicate hypothalamic or pituitary disorders.
  3. Puberty-related Issues: FSH levels can help assess the onset of puberty in children. Abnormal levels may indicate issues with sexual development.
  4. Pituitary Gland Function: FSH levels are often measured along with other hormones to evaluate the function of the pituitary gland, which plays a crucial role in regulating hormone production.
  5. Monitoring Hormone Replacement Therapy: FSH levels are monitored in patients undergoing hormone replacement therapy to assess the effectiveness of treatment.
  6. Diagnosing Hypogonadism: Low levels of FSH in men can be a sign of hypogonadism, a condition where the body doesn't produce enough testosterone.
