|
Follicle stimulation hormon (FSH) |
3.5-16.0IU/L |
High FSH (��12IU/L) level reflects lower and diminished ovarian reserve. Can be an indication of pre-mature ovarian failure.
|
|
Luteinizing hormone (LH) |
<15.0IU/L |
A LH ratio which is higher than FSH indicates PCOS or probability of anovulation
|
|
Prolactin |
1.4-24.2ug/L |
A high level of prolactin is called hyperprolactinemia; and needs to be treated.
|
|
Estradiol (E2) |
70-670pmol/L |
A high Day 3 estradiol level suggests poor ovarian reserve. The estradiol level rises in the follicular phase as the follicle matures, and is very useful for measuring follicular activity. A mature follicles produces more than 200-300 pg/ml of estradiol; and serial E2 levels are often measured for monitoring superovulation in IUI and IVF treatment cycles. |
|
Progesterone (P4) |
0.5-5.0nmol/L |
The progesterone level should be more than 15 ng/ml about 7 days after ovulation. This suggests that the corpus luteum is functioning normally. A low Day 21 progesterone levels suggests the cycles was anovulatory ( no egg was produced). |
|
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone |
0.4-3.8uIU/ml |
If the TSH level is abnormal, the doctor will need to measure the levels of your thyorid hormones ( T3 and T4). Free T3 (Triiodothyronine) 1.4 - 4.4 pg/ml
