What is the FSH-FOLLICLE STIMULATING Test?

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Levels Test measures your blood's follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). The pituitary gland, a tiny gland behind the brain, produces FSH. FSH is vital in sexual development and function.

 

FSH regulates the menstrual cycle and increases egg production in the ovaries. FSH levels in women fluctuate during the menstrual cycle, peaking right before the ovary releases an egg. This is ovulation.

 

FSH regulates sperm production in males. Men's FSH levels rarely vary.

 

Until puberty, FSH levels in children are generally low. It tells the ovaries to create estrogen in girls. It tells the testes to produce testosterone in boys.
