The female hormone panel includes Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH), Luteinizing Hormone (LH), Estradiol (E2), and Progesterone (P4). These hormones regulate ovarian function, ovulation, and menstrual cycles, making them essential in fertility evaluation.
A venous blood sample is tested for FSH, LH, E2, and P4 levels. Results are interpreted with menstrual cycle timing, clinical history, and other hormones (such as AMH, Prolactin, TSH).
Q1: What do FSH, LH, E2, and P4 stand for?
A: FSH = Follicle-Stimulating Hormone, LH = Luteinizing Hormone, E2 = Estradiol, P4 = Progesterone. Together, they regulate ovarian and menstrual health.
Q2: When should these hormones be tested during the cycle?
A: FSH/LH/E2 are best measured on day 2-5 of the menstrual cycle, while P4 is best checked on day 7 after ovulation.
Q3: Can abnormal hormone levels be treated?
A: In many cases, treatment options include medications, lifestyle changes, or assisted reproductive techniques, depending on the cause.
