    What is Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Test?

    A follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) test assesses the amount of FSH circulating in your blood. FSH is crucial for reproductive health in both men and women. In women, FSH regulates the menstrual cycle and stimulates the ovaries to produce eggs. It helps eggs mature and prepares them for ovulation when an egg is released from the ovary for fertilization. In men, FSH assists in sperm production in the testicles and helps maintain sperm health. In children, FSH levels are usually low until puberty begins. When puberty starts, FSH triggers important physical changes. In girls, it stimulates the ovaries to produce oestrogen, leading to breast development and the onset of menstruation. In boys, FSH signals the testicles to produce testosterone, which promotes body hair growth, voice changes, and sperm production. If FSH levels are abnormally high or low, it may signal issues with the pituitary gland (a small brain gland), the hypothalamus (a region of the brain), or the reproductive organs (ovaries or testicles). Monitoring FSH levels can help doctors diagnose and manage reproductive health problems.

    Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Test Parameters

    The FSH test measures one key parameter: the concentration of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in the bloodstream. FSH is a key protein made up of two components: the alpha subunit and the beta subunit. While the beta subunit is unique to FSH, the alpha subunit is shared with other hormones such as LH (luteinising hormone), TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone), and hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin). FSH is produced by the pituitary gland, a small gland located at the brain’s base. The hypothalamus, another region of the brain, sends signals to the pituitary to regulate the amount of FSH produced. In women, high oestrogen levels reduce FSH production. In men, a hormone called inhibin B helps control FSH levels. Checking FSH in the blood is essential for evaluating reproductive health and diagnosing fertility concerns.

    Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Test Preparation

    Consider the following before scheduling an FSH Test in Hyderabad:

    • Prerequisites

    There is no requirement to fast before undergoing the FSH Test.

    • Best Time to Get Tested

    The FSH test can be done at any time during the day.

    • Who Should Get This Test

    Women dealing with irregular periods, infertility, or menopause symptoms are advised to take the FSH test. Men with fertility concerns might also need it. Additionally, it’s useful for monitoring patients undergoing treatment for reproductive health issues.

    • Cautions Before Taking This Test

    Typically, no special preparation is needed before the FSH test. However, you should check with your doctor beforehand to confirm whether the test is necessary for you.

    Why Take the Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Test?

    An FSH test is essential for diagnosing disorders related to abnormal follicle-stimulating hormone levels. The reasons for taking this test can differ depending on age and sex.

    For women, you may need an FSH test if: ● You’ve been trying to get pregnant for a year without success. ● Your periods are irregular or have stopped altogether. ● You’re 45 years old or above, as elevated FSH levels can be a sign of perimenopause or menopause. Testing might still be needed if you show early menopause symptoms or experience a decrease in sexual desire.

    For men, an FSH test is necessary if: ● You've been attempting to conceive with your partner for a year without results. ● You’ve noticed a reduction in sexual drive. ● You have a low sperm count, or you’re losing muscle mass or body hair.

    Both men and women might need an FSH test if a pituitary disorder is suspected, as it can affect fertility and sexual function, or if children and teens are showing signs of early or delayed puberty.

    Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Test Results and Interpretation

    Normal FSH levels vary depending on type of gender and the phases of the menstrual cycle.

    Men: Normal FSH levels range from 1.55 to 9.74 mIU/mL.

    Women:

    • Follicular Phase (Days 1 to 13): 1.98 to 11.6 mIU/mL

    • Mid-cycle Peak (Around Day 14): 5.14 to 23.4 mIU/mL

    • Luteal Phase (Days 15 to 28): 1.38 to 9.58 mIU/mL

    • Post-Menopause: 21.5 to 131 mIU/mL

    High FSH levels can suggest menopause or primary ovarian insufficiency in women, indicating poor ovarian function. In men, elevated FSH may point to primary hypogonadism, a condition where the body doesn’t make enough testosterone.

    Conversely, low FSH levels may be a sign of ovarian dysfunction in women or primary hypogonadism in men. Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) may also present low FSH levels. Monitoring FSH levels is key to evaluating reproductive health and diagnosing fertility problems.
