Available with Tata 1 mg labs in Mumbai at an affordable price, the LH & Testosterone Total test helps assess the levels of two vital hormones: luteinizing hormone (LH) and testosterone total  in both males and females. These hormones play an important role in reproductive health, with Luteinizing Hormone (LH) regulating the menstrual cycle in females and sperm production in males, while testosterone is primarily responsible for male's sexual characteristics and fertility. This test is performed to detect and monitor hormonal imbalance, infertility issues and early or delayed puberty. 

The LH & Testosterone Total test is recommended in females with reproductive disorders such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), menstrual irregularities, difficulty in getting pregnant, and hypogonadism (low testosterone levels). It also helps to determine ovulation time in females, evaluate hypogonadism and the function of the pituitary gland. In males, this test may be performed in suspected cases of low sperm count, fertility issues, or signs of low testosterone levels such as a decreased sex drive, low muscle mass, etc. 

In females, this test is advised on the second or third day of the menstrual cycle. For males, it can be done at any time. Additionally, inform your doctor about all the medication or supplements that you may be taking as some of them (e..g, birth control pills) may require adjustments or temporary discontinuation before the test.

What does LH & Testosterone Total measure?

Contains 2 tests

The LH & Testosterone Total test measures the levels of two key hormones - luteinizing hormone (LH) and testosterone total in the blood. These hormones are vital for hormonal function and overall reproductive health in both males and females. 

In females, LH levels rise just before ovulation to trigger the release of a mature egg while in males, LH stimulates testosterone production. On the other hand, testosterone plays a key role in the development of male reproductive tissues such as testicles and prostate, as well as promoting secondary sexual characteristics such as increased muscle and bone mass, and the growth of body hair.

The levels of these hormones are typically low during younger ages (below puberty). However, as adolescence approaches, the brain starts producing gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). GnRH stimulates the pituitary gland to release LH. These gonadotropin hormones play a crucial role in the production of sex hormones such as testosterone, which are responsible for initiating the changes of puberty and controlling reproductive function in both males and females. 

The Luteinising Hormone test determines the level of luteinizing hormone that promotes the functioning of the gonads, i.e., testes in men and ovaries in women. LH is produced by the pituitary gland, a pea-sized gland situated at the base of the brain. The production and release of LH are controlled by a system known as the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. A hormone called GnRH is released from the hypothalamus of the brain and binds to the cell receptors in the anterior pituitary gland, which in turn prompts the synthesis and release of luteinizing hormone. LH then travels across the blood and attaches to its target cells in the testes in men and ovaries in women to facilitate optimal sexual and reproductive activities.

The Testosterone Total test measures the level of testosterone hormone available in the blood. This includes two forms of testosterone: free testosterone and bound testosterone. Bound testosterone is attached to proteins, mainly to sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and albumin. It cannot enter the body's cells or directly affect tissues and organs. Instead, it acts as a store of testosterone in the blood and can be released when the body needs it. Free testosterone is not attached to any proteins and is the active form. It can easily transport to various tissues, and affects key functions like sex drive, muscle growth, bone strength, and energy levels.
