This test package is dominated by the evaluation of the hormonal activity of substances that have a direct impact on fertility.
It also includes an AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone) test, which has an effect on the regulation of egg maturation and is also a good indicator of a woman's ovarian reserve (i.e. egg supply). It also includes a Luteinizing Hormone (LH) test, which indicates the condition of the ovaries and can thus detect polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
The package also includes a follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) test, which is released to help stimulate follicles, i.e. ovulation. An integral part is an examination of the function of prolactin, progesterone and testosterone, the incorrect levels of which can prevent pregnancy, implantation of a fertilized egg, and can thus cause overall infertility.
The package also includes tests for estradiol (E2), anti-Tg and Anti-TPO, which are indicative of autoimmune thyroid disorders and can therefore affect the function of the reproductive system.
We recommend that you discuss the results you receive from SYNLAB with your treating physician.
The collaboration between Verra and SYNLAB has created a unique project on the market, which offers women the opportunity to undergo testing as part of specially designed packages while trying to have a baby, but also during pregnancy.
The results may indicate major deficiencies in certain micronutrients or hormonal dysfunction. Why is this information important to know? Nutrient deficiencies or reduced function of certain hormones may be crucial for pregnancy and subsequent fetal nutrition.
The greatest experts in the field have therefore compiled specific examinations that may be of value to you. We recommend that you discuss the results you receive from SYNLAB with your treating physician. He or she can then take your health condition into account when evaluating you and recommend further steps.
