Do you know the importance of FSH and LH Test?

When you are looking forward to the arrival of a new life with joy, it is crucial to make adequate preparations for pregnancy. Among the many pre-pregnancy examination items, FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) and LH (luteinizing hormone) tests are often mentioned, but do you really understand their significance?

The main function of FSH is to promote the development and maturation of follicles. If the FSH level is too high, it may mean that the ovarian function is impaired, and the quality and quantity of eggs may be affected, thereby increasing the difficulty of conception. On the contrary, if the FSH level is too low, it may indicate abnormal function of the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis, which will also have an adverse effect on ovulation and conception.

LH plays a "triggering" role in the ovulation process. Before ovulation, LH will have a peak, prompting the follicle to rupture and release the egg. Abnormal LH levels may lead to ovulation disorders, such as no ovulation or infrequent ovulation, which will undoubtedly hinder conception.

FSH and LH are two important gonadotropins secreted by the anterior pituitary gland that play a key role in the female reproductive system. For women trying to conceive, testing these two hormone levels can provide important information about ovarian function and ovulation.

Abnormal FSH and LH test results before pregnancy may have the following effects on pregnancy:

❥(^_-) Impact on ovulation: FSH and LH have a direct impact on ovulation. If the levels of the two are abnormal, it may cause ovulation disorders, thus affecting pregnancy.

❥(^_-) Impact on egg quality: FSH levels that are too high or too low may lead to decreased egg quality, affect fertilization or the development of fertilized eggs, and thus affect pregnancy.

❥(^_-) Impact on endometrial conditions: Affects the growth and shedding of the endometrium. If the levels of the two are abnormal, it may cause the endometrial environment to be unfavorable for the implantation of the fertilized egg, affecting pregnancy.

❥(^_-) Impact on implantation environment: It affects the stability of the endometrium and the implantation environment. If the levels of the two are abnormal, it may affect the implantation of the fertilized egg and affect pregnancy.

If the results of FSH and LH tests before pregnancy are abnormal, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time for further examination and diagnosis, and to receive appropriate treatment according to the doctor's advice. At the same time, maintaining healthy living habits and dietary structure, as well as a good mental state, are also important factors in increasing the probability of pregnancy.
