Why Patients Choose The Vesey for LH and FSH Blood Tests
A luteinising hormone (LH) blood test measures a hormone made by the pituitary gland. LH plays a central role in reproduction — it triggers ovulation in women and stimulates testosterone production in men.
LH is usually measured alongside FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) and the sex hormones, and the timing within the menstrual cycle matters for women. Together these tests help investigate fertility, periods, puberty and the menopause.
Understanding Your LH Result
LH is interpreted in context. In women, the pattern of LH and FSH helps distinguish causes of irregular periods, PCOS and the menopause; in men, LH alongside testosterone helps locate the source of low testosterone.
A single value means little on its own — your clinician reads it with FSH, the sex hormones and, in women, the day of the cycle.
When Is an LH Test Used?
It is helpful when investigating difficulty conceiving, irregular or absent periods, suspected PCOS, the menopause, low testosterone in men, or early/delayed puberty.
At The Vesey, LH is usually part of a fertility or hormone panel, bookable without a referral and interpreted by a clinician.
Getting Tested at The Vesey
LH is measured from a simple blood sample (timed to your cycle where relevant), with results delivered promptly and a clinician to explain the full picture.
