What Is an FSH Test in Mumbai?

An FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone) Test in Mumbai measures the level of FSH in your blood — a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that plays a key role in reproductive health and sexual development.

In women, FSH helps regulate the menstrual cycle and stimulates the growth of ovarian follicles that release eggs. In men, it supports the production of healthy sperm. Doctors commonly recommend this test to investigate infertility, evaluate menstrual irregularities, confirm menopause, assess pituitary function, or diagnose puberty disorders in children.

The test involves a simple blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm, and fasting is not required.

What Does an FSH Test Measure in Mumbai?

The FSH Test in Mumbai measures your body’s production of follicle-stimulating hormone, which is vital for fertility and overall reproductive function. It provides key insights into:

  • Ovarian Function: Assesses how well your ovaries are working and whether you’re nearing menopause.
  • Testicular Function: Determines how effectively your testes are producing sperm.
  • Infertility Causes: Helps detect hormonal imbalances affecting conception in both men and women.
  • Menstrual and Menopause Issues: Confirms menopause or premature ovarian failure.
  • Pituitary Gland Health: Evaluates whether your pituitary gland is producing the right amount of hormones.
  • Puberty Disorders in Children: Identifies delayed or early onset of puberty.

Who Should Consider an FSH Test in Mumbai?

You may need an FSH Test if you experience:

  • Difficulty conceiving or infertility
  • Irregular or absent menstrual periods
  • Early menopause symptoms such as hot flashes or night sweats
  • Low libido, fatigue, or testicular issues in men
  • Signs of early or delayed puberty in children
  • Unexplained hormonal or pituitary disorders

Your doctor may also recommend this test alongside an LH (Luteinising Hormone) test for a more complete picture of reproductive health.

Why Is an FSH Test Done?

The FSH Test in Mumbai helps identify the cause of infertility, menstrual irregularities, and hormonal disorders. It is also used to confirm menopause in women, evaluate sperm production in men, and check pituitary gland function.
