The Progesterone Blood Test measures the level of progesterone, a vital hormone produced mainly by the ovaries in women. Progesterone plays a critical role in preparing the uterus for pregnancy, supporting early pregnancy, and regulating the menstrual cycle.

This test provides insights into:

• Ovulation Tracking: Progesterone levels rise significantly after ovulation, making this test a reliable indicator for confirming ovulation timing, which is essential for fertility planning.

• Pregnancy Support: During early pregnancy, adequate progesterone levels are essential for supporting the developing embryo and maintaining a healthy pregnancy.

• Menstrual Cycle Regularity: Imbalances in progesterone can lead to menstrual irregularities, including symptoms of PMS or conditions such as luteal phase defects.

• Hormone Health Assessment: Low or high levels of progesterone may indicate conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), thyroid issues, or ovarian disorders.

The Progesterone Blood Test is ideal for women looking to confirm ovulation, evaluate their menstrual cycle, or gain insights into hormonal health for fertility and pregnancy planning. By assessing progesterone levels, this test helps you monitor and optimize your reproductive health.
