Women’s Fertility Basic Panel (Bioreference)

What this panel includes

• Reproductive hormones: Estradiol, progesterone, total testosterone, free testosterone, and DHEA-S

• Pituitary signaling: FSH and LH to assess ovarian communication and cycle regulation

• Hormone availability: SHBG to understand biologically active hormone levels

• Ovarian reserve markers: Anti Müllerian hormone (AMH)

• Prolactin: Evaluated for its role in ovulation and cycle disruption

• Thyroid function: TSH, free T4, and free T3 to assess metabolic and reproductive support

• Nutrient and metabolic support: Vitamin D and ferritin

Biomarkers tested

Why patients choose this

• A more detailed fertility-focused assessment of ovarian reserve, reproductive signaling, and hormonal coordination.
• Helps clarify patterns that may impact reproductive planning, fertility, or menstrual cycle regularity.
• Evaluates sex hormones, pituitary signaling, thyroid function, and ovarian reserve markers together.
• Especially useful for women actively trying to conceive, planning future fertility, or navigating irregular cycles, unexplained infertility, or possible perimenopause.
• Schedule your lab test seamlessly and complete it at a lab near you.

Before your test

Cycle timing matters more for this panel than most. Proper timing helps ensure results are interpreted accurately in context.

For fertility-focused testing: schedule your draw during the mid-luteal phase, typically days 19 to 23 of a standard 28-day cycle.

For hormonal transition or perimenopause assessment: schedule your draw during the early follicular phase, typically days 1 to 5 of your cycle.

Cycle timing is not always predictable. You may reschedule your lab appointment if needed, though same-week availability may be limited.

It is recommended to fast for at least 8 hours before your draw.

Important information

Why it matters: evaluating sex hormones, pituitary signaling, thyroid, and ovarian reserve together offers a nuanced view of how the hormonal system is functioning and how it may change over time.

Who it's for: especially useful for women actively trying to conceive, planning future fertility, or navigating irregular cycles, unexplained infertility, or possible perimenopause.

Cycle timing matters for this panel: mid-luteal (days 19–23) for fertility-focused testing, or early follicular (days 1–5) for hormonal transition assessment.

It is recommended to fast for at least 8 hours before your draw.
