Prolactin’s primary role is to help initiate and maintain breast milk production in pregnant and nursing women. High prolactin levels can interfere with ovulation. The test can be used to diagnose galactorrhea, or abnormal lactation, but can also be useful in the diagnosis of headaches and visual disturbances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProgesterone\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hormone progesterone is produced by the ovaries during ovulation. Measuring progesterone levels can be helpful in determining whether or not a woman has ovulated, when ovulation occurred, or to monitor the success of induced ovulation. An imbalance between progesterone and estrogen is linked to weight gain, insomnia, anxiety, depression, migraine, cancer, uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, and osteoporosis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEstradiol\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEstradiol (E2) is the most dominant and strongest form of estrogen. Made in the ovarian follicles, estradiol plays an important role in the first half of the menstrual cycle as well as after ovulation. It can be helpful to look at the relationship between estradiol and progesterone in evaluating menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, mood disorders, and aging skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFSH\/LH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) are made by the pituitary gland and play an important role in sexual development and functioning. These hormones help to control the menstrual cycle and growth of eggs in the ovaries. FSH and LH levels change throughout the menstrual cycle, with the highest levels just before ovulation. Measuring FSH can be helpful in determining ovarian reserve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDHEA, S\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDHEA is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands. DHEA-sulfate (DHEA-S) is the sulfated form of DHEA and represents a stable measure of adrenal function and stress accumulated over time. DHEA-S helps to modulate neurotransmitter synthesis, and plays a role in immune health, inflammation, executive function, working memory, attention, and has a stress-buffering effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTestosterone, Free \u0026amp; Total\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTestosterone is produced by the adrenal glands and ovaries. It is also produced from the conversion of steroid hormones such as DHEA. Testosterone plays an important role in mood and mental outlook, bone and muscle health, cardiovascular health, and libido. Testosterone levels tend to decline with age. Total testosterone measures the total amount of testosterone in the blood stream. Free testosterone measures the amount of testosterone that is available to connect with testosterone receptors in the body. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eThyroid Analysis (\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTSH, FTI, T3 Up, T4 Total, T3 Total, Free T4, Free T3)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis comprehensive analysis provides an assessment of thyroid function and can help to pinpoint underlying causes contributing to hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eInflammatory Markers \u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCRP, Cardiac\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eC-reactive protein (CRP) is a protein in your blood, which when elevated, is indicative of inflammation. This test can be used to evaluate your risk of developing coronary artery disease, a condition in which the arteries of your heart are narrowed. Inflammation (swelling) of the arteries has been linked to an increased risk of heart disease, heart attack, stroke, and peripheral arterial disease.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHomocysteine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHomocysteine is an amino acid that is produced by the body and is normally changed into other amino acids during the methylation process. However, due to a variety of factors, homocysteine levels can rise. Elevated homocysteine is a risk factor for cardiovascular events in addition to cognitive decline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eBlood Sugar Markers \u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGlucose\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis test detects blood sugar imbalances, such as high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) or low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).
