Our fertility panel is a comprehensive blood test of 7 female hormones that play a major role in women’s fertility health. This simple blood test done from home and run in our certified lab provides valuable and reliable information about your hormonal health. In a matter of days and at the fraction of the clinic cost, gain clarity on your ovarian reserve, thyroid health, menopause, and potential other conditions impacting fertility, such as PCOS.
You must take the test on day 3 of your menstrual cycle. Note that you should not be using hormonal contraceptives when taking the test.

What will be tested?
Our Fertility & Hormone Test measures 7 key hormones: AMH, LH, FSH, TSH, Prolactin, Estradiol, and FT4. These hormones play a critical role in a woman’s fertility and hormonal health. The test helps diagnose up to 14 conditions that can impact fertility, including PCOS, thyroid issues, hormonal imbalances, and perimenopause. It’s also an essential tool for assessing your egg reserve, providing valuable insights into your reproductive future.
-
When is the right time for me to test?
The test can be taken by any woman between the ages of 18 and 45 who still has periods, even if they are not regular, to provide insights into hormonal health and any underlying conditions impacting fertility. For those who want to be proactive about their fertility and explore their options, we recommend starting hormone testing in your late twenties to early thirties. This timeframe allows for a proactive approach, giving you a clear picture of your hormone levels and fertility health before potential issues arise, as fertility generally declines rapidly in our thirties.
For women with specific concerns or symptoms like irregular periods, a family history of fertility issues, or conditions such as PCOS or endometriosis, it might be beneficial to start testing even earlier. Regular hormone testing can provide valuable insights, helping you make informed decisions about your reproductive plans, whether you’re thinking about starting a family soon or considering options like egg freezing for the future..

What happens to my test after I send it back?
After you collect your blood sample (which is a tiny finger prick and pretty painless), you’ll schedule your pickup through our online dashboard. A courier will collect your sample and deliver it straight to the lab, which will handle the rest. Your test kit will come with instructions to guide you through the whole process.
-
Are at-home tests as accurate as the clinic?
Yes! You’re the same reliable and accurate results as you would from a clinic. Our blood samples are processed in the same certified labs, which are ISO and CAP accredited. The main difference is that instead of withdrawing a tube of blood through a needle and syringe, we use a sample collection card, which is actually more stable and only requires a few drops of blood.

Frequently asked question about our fertility hormone test
-
Is the at home fertility hormone test painful?
An at-home fertility hormone test involves a simple finger prick to collect a small blood sample. Most people find this to be just a quick pinch and not very painful. It’s similar to a minor pinch you might feel when you get a routine blood test at a doctor’s office. The key is to follow the instructions that come with the test kit carefully: drink plenty of liquids and warm hands make it easier. And remember, it’s a brief moment that gives you valuable insights into your fertility health. If you’re feeling anxious about it, take a deep breath and remind yourself of the benefits.
And if you are still not sure, you can select a phlebotomist during checkout for an extra 80 aed to draw your blood the old way, through venipuncture. Regardless of what you choose, you’re doing something great for your health and future! -
How accurate is the test?
Our results are just as accurate as those obtained in a clinical setting because all our tests are taken to and run in our certified lab. This means we carefully follow the same strict protocols used during analysis that you would find for any other blood sample. To reassure you further, note that our lab is ISO & CAP certified which is highest standard of regulation for laboratories in the UAE.
-
What if I didn't collect my sample properly?
Don’t worry, we understand that collecting a blood sample can sometimes be challenging. If you didn’t get enough blood from one finger, we recommend trying another finger. Make sure to follow our collection instructions carefully for the best results. If you continue to experience difficulty, we still suggest scheduling a pickup with our courier service and get your sample to our lab for processing. In the rare event that our lab is unable to process your sample, don’t fret. You’ll still have the option to book a visit from one of our trained phlebotomists for an additional fee of 80 AED. Rest assured, we’re here to support you every step of the way in your fertility journey.
-
What is the next step after a fertility blood test?
Of course, it’s important to know what comes next. After a fertility blood test, the next step usually involves discussing the results with our fertility advisor. We will interpret the hormone levels and explain what they mean for your fertility. Based on these results, we might suggest further testing or treatments if needed. This could include additional blood tests, ultrasounds, or a referral to a fertility specialist. The goal is to create a personalized plan that best supports your fertility journey. Remember, every step you take is a positive move towards understanding your reproductive health better.
-
What is the best day to get tested during my cycle?
For this fertility panel specifically you must test on the third day of your menstrual cycle – that’s the third day of your period. This timing gives the most accurate insight into the hormones that are key for fertility, like FSH and estrogen.
-
Why is it important to do a hormonal fertility test?
A hormonal fertility test helps us get a clear picture of your hormonal health, which is a key part of your fertility. It checks levels of various hormones that play a vital role in reproductive function, conception and pregnancy. Knowing if these levels are balanced or if there’s something that needs a bit more attention can be incredibly helpful. It’s like getting a roadmap of your body’s fertility landscape, so you can make informed decisions about your fertility journey. Even if pregnancy is not on the cards yet, testing your hormones might help you identify underlying conditions such as PCOS or DOI that can affect your fertility now or in the future.
