Trying for a Baby? How the At-Home FSH Test Kit Can Help You Understand Fertility

Are you facing difficulties conceiving?

If you and your partner are struggling to fall pregnant, it can be an emotional and uncertain journey. One crucial factor in conception is your hormone balance — and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) plays a central role.

What is FSH and how does it affect fertility?

FSH is responsible for egg maturation in women and sperm production in men. Imbalances can affect ovulation, menstrual cycles, and sperm quality — all key for natural conception. Read more on the NHS about infertility.

Symptoms that may suggest FSH-related fertility issues:

• Irregular or absent periods
• Hot flushes and night sweats (possible sign of premature menopause)
• Low libido or changes in sexual health
• Difficulty with conception despite regular efforts

What can you do if you’re concerned about fertility?

• Monitor menstrual cycles and frequency
• Maintain a healthy BMI, diet, and reduce stress
• Engage in regular moderate exercise
• Speak to a GP early about concerns
• Consider a home FSH test kit for fast, clear answers
