Lh (Luteinizing Hormone)
Rs.1,600.00
SKU TEST-0104
Overview:
The Luteinizing Hormone (LH) test measures the level of LH in the blood. LH is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland and plays a crucial role in regulating the reproductive processes, including the menstrual cycle in women and sperm production in men. In women, a surge in LH triggers ovulation (the release of an egg from the ovary), while in men, it stimulates the production of testosterone.
What it detects:
The LH test helps evaluate reproductive health. In women, it can be used to assess ovulation, diagnose menstrual irregularities, and investigate infertility issues. In men, it is used to assess testosterone production and check for fertility issues. Abnormal LH levels may indicate conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), menopause, or pituitary disorders.
Who should get it:
Women with irregular periods, difficulty conceiving, or signs of menopause may need this test. It is also helpful for men with infertility concerns or suspected hormone imbalances. The test is often used alongside other tests like FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone) to assess fertility or pituitary function.
