LUTEINISING HORMONE (LH)
What does LUTEINISING HORMONE (LH) measure?
This test measures the level of luteinising hormone (LH), a hormone involved in regulating reproductive function. It may be used to assess ovulation and menstrual cycle concerns, investigate fertility issues, or evaluate hormone-related changes in women and men. In children, it may help assess the timing of puberty. LH results are interpreted alongside clinical history, other hormone tests, age, and, where relevant, the stage of the menstrual cycle.
