TSH (THYROID STIMULATING HORMONE) IS A HORMONE PRODUCED BY THE PITUITARY GLAND THAT REGULATES THYROID FUNCTION. IT STIMULATES THE THYROID GLAND TO PRODUCE THYROID HORMONES, WHICH CONTROL METABOLISM, BODY TEMPERATURE, AND HEART RATE. ABNORMAL TSH LEVELS CAN INDICATE THYROID DISORDERS SUCH AS HYPERTHYROIDISM (OVERACTIVE THYROID) OR HYPOTHYROIDISM (UNDERACTIVE THYROID). BY MEASURING TSH, HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS CAN DIAGNOSE AND MONITOR THYROID CONDITIONS.

An Insulin Fasting test measures the amount of insulin in your blood after an overnight fast. Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas that helps regulate blood sugar levels. This test helps assess your bodys ability to produce and use insulin effectively.Abnormal insulin levels can indicate insulin resistance, a precursor to type 2 diabetes, or other conditions affecting blood sugar control.

Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) is a hormone produced by the ovaries that reflects the number of eggs remaining in the body. An AMH test measures this hormone level to assess ovarian reserve, which is crucial for predicting fertility potential. Lower AMH levels generally indicate a declining egg supply, while higher levels suggest a greater number of eggs. This test is valuable for women undergoing fertility treatments, those concerned about premature ovarian failure, and those considering egg freezing.

A total testosterone test measures the combined levels of both free and bound testosterone in the blood. This is the most common type of testosterone test and is typically used to assess overall testosterone levels. Its important to note that while total testosterone provides valuable information, it does not directly reflect the biologically active form of the hormone.

THE DHEA-S (DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE SULFATE) TEST MEASURES THE LEVEL OF DHEA-S, A STEROID HORMONE PRODUCED PRIMARILY BY THE ADRENAL GLANDS. 1 IT PLAYS A ROLE IN THE PRODUCTION OF SEX HORMONES LIKE TESTOSTERONE AND ESTROGEN. 1 THIS TEST IS USED TO ASSESS ADRENAL FUNCTION, DIAGNOSE CONDITIONS LIKE ADRENAL TUMORS OR POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME (PCOS), AND INVESTIGATE EARLY PUBERTY OR ABNORMAL HORMONE LEVELS IN BOTH MEN AND WOMEN.

THIS ASSAY IS USED TO ASSESS RISK OF DEVELOPING DIABETES AND RESPONSE TO TREATMENT WITH ORAL HYPOGLYCEMIC AGENTS.

A PROLACTIN, SERUM TEST MEASURES THE LEVEL OF PROLACTIN, A HORMONE PRODUCED BY THE PITUITARY GLAND. PROLACTIN IS PRIMARILY RESPONSIBLE FOR STIMULATING BREAST MILK PRODUCTION AFTER CHILDBIRTH. HOWEVER, ELEVATED PROLACTIN LEVELS CAN ALSO OCCUR IN NON-PREGNANT INDIVIDUALS AND MAY INDICATE CONDITIONS SUCH AS PITUITARY TUMORS (PROLACTINOMAS), THYROID DISORDERS, OR CERTAIN MEDICATIONS. THIS TEST HELPS DIAGNOSE HORMONAL IMBALANCES AND INFERTILITY ISSUES IN BOTH MEN AND WOMEN.
