Fertility Tests

An in-depth overview of common fertility tests. Explore our library of articles on hormone tests, imaging, and procedures for your journey.

Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH)

Hormone Test

Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) is the most accurate marker for estimating a woman’s remaining egg supply (ovarian reserve).

Antral Follicle Count (AFC)

Ultrasound Test

The antral follicle count (AFC) is an ultrasound-based measure of ovarian reserve that predicts how your ovaries will respond to IVF stimulation.

DHEA-S Test

Hormone Test

The DHEA-S test measures the adrenal androgen dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, used to identify the source of androgen excess in women with PCOS symptoms or irregular cycles.

Estradiol Test

Hormone Test

Estradiol (E2) is the primary estrogen essential for follicle development and menstrual cycle regulation.

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Test

Hormone Test

FSH helps control menstrual cycles and egg production. A key indicator of ovarian reserve.

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) Test

Hormone Test

The hCG blood test confirms pregnancy, tracks early viability through serial measurements, and plays a direct role in IVF as the trigger injection for final egg maturation.

Inhibin B Test

Hormone Test

Inhibin B is a hormone that signals ovarian follicle activity in women and Sertoli cell function in men, used to refine ovarian reserve assessment and investigate male azoospermia.

Luteinizing Hormone (LH) Test

Hormone Test

LH triggers ovulation and is essential for normal reproductive hormone signaling.

Progesterone Test

Hormone Test

Progesterone supports implantation and pregnancy. Its levels confirm ovulation.

Prolactin Test

Hormone Test

Prolactin affects ovulation and reproductive hormones. High levels can cause infertility.

Semen Analysis

Male Fertility Test

A semen analysis evaluates sperm count, motility, and morphology using WHO 2021 reference values. It is the standard first-line test for male factor infertility.

Sperm DNA Fragmentation Test

Male Fertility Test

The sperm DNA fragmentation test measures broken DNA strands in sperm cells. High fragmentation can impair IVF outcomes and embryo development even when standard semen analysis is normal.

Testosterone Test

Hormone Test

Testosterone affects ovarian function, egg quality, and overall reproductive health.

Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) Test

Hormone Test

TSH imbalance can interfere with ovulation, implantation, and pregnancy outcomes.
