Hormone & Fertility

Hormone & Fertility

Your body's optimal functioning depends on the production of hormones, which act as biochemical messengers from your endocrine glands. These essential chemicals regulate various bodily functions such as metabolism, sleep, appetite, and mood, stimulate growth, modulate sexual and reproductive processes, and help prevent disease. However, imbalances in these vital biochemicals can cause chronic illness, dysfunction, pain, and emotional distress. At Health Today, we understand the importance of hormonal balance for overall health, wellness, and quality of life. That's why we offer a range of screening tools that provide insight into your hormonal balance and help protect you against life-altering events. With these screening tools, we aim to support our clients' overall health and well-being by promoting the early detection and management of hormonal imbalances.

The Details...

Antimullerian hormone (AMH1)

Antimullerian hormone (AMH1)

AMH1, or Antimullerian Hormone, S is a blood test that measures levels of a hormone called Antimullerian hormone (AMH) in both males and females. AMH is produced in reproductive tissues and plays a key role in the development of reproductive organs.

In females, this test helps determine ovarian reserves, assess ovarian response for infertility evaluation, and inform reproductive therapy treatments. It can also be used as a marker for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). In males, AMH levels can be used to evaluate male infertility and sexual development disorders. The test is simple and provides valuable information to healthcare professionals.

Estradiol (EEST)

Estradiol (EEST)

EEST, or Estradiol Mass Spectrometry, S is a straightforward blood test that measures the amount of estradiol in your blood. Estradiol is a form of estrogen hormone, which plays a crucial role in the development and function of the reproductive system. In females, estradiol is produced in the ovaries, breasts, and adrenal glands, and regulates the menstrual cycle, maintains bone health, and supports sexual development. In males, estradiol is produced in the adrenal glands and testes, and helps regulate sperm production and bone health.

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH)

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH)

FSH, also called Follicle-Stimulating Hormone, is a blood test that measures the amount of this hormone in your blood. The pituitary gland produces FSH, which is crucial to sexual development and function. In females, FSH regulates the menstrual cycle and promotes egg development in the ovaries. It also signals the ovaries to produce estrogen during puberty. In males, FSH controls sperm production and signals the testes to produce testosterone during puberty.

Progesterone (PGSN)

Progesterone (PGSN)

Progesterone screening (PGSN), also known as a simple blood test, measures the level of progesterone in the blood. In females, progesterone is produced in the ovaries, adrenal glands, and during pregnancy by the placenta. It plays an essential role in fertility and pregnancy by supporting the development of the uterine lining and regulating the menstrual cycle. In males, progesterone is produced in the testicles and adrenal glands and is a building block of testosterone. This screening is an easy way to assess progesterone levels in the blood.

Testosterone, Total, Bioavailable and Free, Serum (TTFB)

Testosterone, Total, Bioavailable and Free, Serum (TTFB)

The Mayo Clinic Testosterone, Total, Bioavailable and Free, Serum (TTFB) test is a blood test that measures the level of testosterone in the blood. Testosterone is a male sex hormone that plays a key role in the development of male physical characteristics and is important for maintaining bone density, muscle mass, and libido. The test measures both total testosterone, which includes testosterone bound to proteins, and free testosterone, which is not bound and is available for use by the body. The test can also measure bioavailable testosterone, which includes both free and testosterone bound to albumin. The test is typically used to diagnose and monitor testosterone-related disorders, such as hypogonadism and infertility.
