The Luteinising Hormone (LH) test measures the level of LH in a venous blood sample. LH helps regulate the menstrual cycle and fertility, so its measurement may support assessments of reproductive health. This single‑marker test is priced at £63 and requires a phlebotomy visit (additional £50). It is suitable for adults evaluating ovulation or pituitary function.
About this treatment
Luteinising Hormone (LH) is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that triggers ovulation in women and testosterone production in men. By analysing a venous blood draw for LH, clinicians can gain insight into hormonal balance, which may be associated with fertility issues, menstrual irregularities, or pituitary disorders. The test includes one biomarker—LH—processed in a certified laboratory with a typical turnaround of 3‑5 business days. The price is £63, with an extra £50 phlebotomy fee per visit. Results are delivered in a detailed report and may be discussed in a follow‑up consultation. No special preparation is required beyond standard blood‑draw protocols.
