faqFrequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Does excess FSH hormone cause imbalance?

Yes, elevated FSH hormone levels indicate diminished ovarian reserves. Less ovarian reserve amounts to less eggs and stimulating hormone production which can make ovulation uncertain. This may lead to complications in sexual health and conceiving a child difficult.

What is the role of serum prolactin?

Prolactin is a hormone made by the pituitary gland, which is located at the base of the brain. Excess prolactin can make breast milk production high in women.

What is the role of LH?
