Fertility and pregnancy testing combines tests that evaluate reproductive hormones with a pregnancy hormone check. It can include follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, estradiol, progesterone, prolactin, anti-Mullerian hormone, thyroid-stimulating hormone, and human chorionic gonadotropin. This combination is used when a person is trying to conceive, has irregular cycles, or needs early pregnancy confirmation, and it can help a healthcare provider assess hormone balance and ovarian function. The tests ordered depend on symptoms and goals. Results are interpreted together with cycle timing and clinical context by a healthcare provider.

• Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) The pregnancy hormone, detected in blood or urine to confirm or monitor a pregnancy.
• Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) A hormone that stimulates egg development and sperm production.
• Luteinizing hormone (LH) A hormone that triggers ovulation and supports hormone production.
• Estradiol A form of estrogen produced by the ovaries that reflects ovarian activity.
• Progesterone A hormone that rises after ovulation and supports early pregnancy.
• Prolactin A hormone that supports milk production and can affect reproductive balance when elevated.
• Anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) A marker produced by ovarian follicles that helps estimate ovarian reserve.
• Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) A hormone that reflects thyroid function, which can influence fertility and menstrual cycles.

• People who are trying to conceive and want an evaluation
• Individuals with irregular or absent menstrual cycles
• Those who need early confirmation or monitoring of a pregnancy
• People with signs of a hormone imbalance affecting reproduction
• Anyone being assessed before or during fertility treatment

• Cycle timing matters for several hormones, so follow your healthcare provider's instructions about which day to test
• Fasting may be requested for some tests; check the instructions with your order
• A first-morning urine sample or a blood draw may be used, depending on the test
• Tell the lab about hormonal medications, contraceptives, and fertility treatments

The hCG component indicates whether a pregnancy is present, while the hormone tests help show ovarian function and hormone balance. High FSH or low AMH may suggest reduced ovarian reserve, an elevated prolactin or abnormal TSH can affect fertility, and progesterone is often used to assess ovulation. Because these hormones fluctuate and interact, no single result confirms fertility or infertility. Discuss your fertility and pregnancy results with a healthcare provider, who can interpret the whole picture and recommend appropriate follow-up.
