The Fertility Assessment Panel from Augmentum Diagnostics is a crucial foundational screening package designed to evaluate the function of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Gonadal (HPG) axis—the master control system for reproduction. By measuring four essential hormones, this panel helps identify common endocrine causes of infertility, menstrual irregularities, and reproductive dysfunction.
As an NABL Accredited Laboratory, we ensure highly precise and reliable results, which are vital for interpreting complex hormonal dynamics and guiding initial fertility investigations.
Key Parameters Included in Panel
FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone)Pituitary Gland Stimulates egg follicle growth in women and sperm production in men.Essential marker for Ovarian Reserve in women.
LH (Luteinizing Hormone)Pituitary Gland Triggers ovulation in women and stimulates testosterone production in men. Evaluates the LH:FSH ratio (key in PCOS diagnosis) and pituitary response.
Prolactin Pituitary GlandPrimarily responsible for lactation, but its excess (Hyperprolactinemia) suppresses ovulation and sperm production. Screens for Prolactinoma (pituitary tumor) and medication-induced infertility.
TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone)Pituitary Gland Regulates the Thyroid Gland, which controls metabolism and heavily influences reproductive hormones. Screens for Hypothyroidism/Hyperthyroidism, which are common, treatable causes of menstrual irregularity and infertility.
