    What is Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Test?

    A follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) test measures the concentration of FSH hormone circulating in your blood. FSH is essential for reproductive health in both men and women.

    In women, FSH helps control the menstrual cycle and stimulates the ovaries to produce eggs. It aids in the maturation of eggs and prepares them for ovulation, the process when an egg is released from the ovary for fertilisation. In men, FSH plays a role in the production of sperm in the testicles and helps keep the sperm healthy.

    In children, FSH levels are usually low until they attain puberty. When puberty starts, FSH triggers important physical changes. In girls, it signals the ovaries to produce oestrogen, which leads to breast development and the start of menstruation. In boys, FSH signals the testicles to make testosterone, promoting body hair growth, voice changes, and sperm production.

    If FSH levels are too high or too low, it may indicate issues with the pituitary gland (a small gland in the brain), the hypothalamus (a brain region), or the reproductive organs (ovaries or testicles). Monitoring FSH levels can help doctors diagnose and manage reproductive health concerns.

    Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Test Parameters

    The FSH test measures one key parameter: the level of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in the blood.

    Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is an important protein made up of two parts: the alpha subunit and the beta subunit. The beta part is specific to FSH, while the alpha part is also found in other hormones like 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 base of the brain. The hypothalamus, located in the brain, sends signals to the pituitary gland, which determines the amount of FSH produced.

    In women, when oestrogen levels are high, FSH production is reduced. In men, a hormone called inhibin B helps regulate FSH levels. Testing FSH in the blood is crucial for the assessment of reproductive health and to identify any fertility issues.

    Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Test Preparation

    Consider the following before scheduling an FSH Test in Bangalore:

    • Prerequisites

    You do not have to fast before undergoing an FSH Test.

    • Best Time to Get Tested

    This test can be scheduled at any time of day.

    • Who Should Get This Test

    The FSH test is recommended for women experiencing irregular periods, infertility, or menopause symptoms. Men with fertility concerns may also need this test. Additionally, it may be used to monitor patients undergoing treatment for reproductive disorders.

    • Cautions Before Taking This Test

    No specific preparation is usually needed before the FSH test. However, you should consult your doctor before undergoing the test to ensure it is necessary for you.

    Why Take the Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Test?

    An FSH test is important for diagnosing conditions related to abnormal levels of follicle-stimulating hormone. The need for this test can vary based on age and sex.

    For women, an FSH test may be required if:

    • You are struggling to conceive after trying for 12 months.

    • Your menstrual cycles are irregular or have stopped.

    • You are aged 45 years or older, as high FSH levels can indicate perimenopause or menopause. However, testing may still be needed if you experience symptoms of early menopause or a decline in sexual desire.

    For men, the test can help if:

    • You and your partner have not been able to get pregnant after trying for a year.

    • You notice a decreased interest in sexual activity.

    • You have a low sperm count or experience loss of muscle mass and body hair.

    Both men and women may need an FSH test if the doctor suspects a pituitary disorder, which can influence fertility and sexual desire, or if children and teenagers show signs of early or delayed puberty.

    Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Test Results and Interpretation

    Normal FSH levels differ based on sex and menstrual cycle phases.

    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

    Increased FSH levels may suggest menopause or primary ovarian insufficiency in women, meaning the ovaries are not working properly. In men, high FSH may indicate primary hypogonadism, where the body does not produce enough testosterone.

    On the other hand, decreased FSH levels may indicate primary ovarian dysfunction in women or primary hypogonadism in men. Additionally, women with conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) may also show low FSH levels. Monitoring FSH is crucial for understanding reproductive health and diagnosing fertility issues.
