GenderGP FSH & LH Home Test Kit
Monitoring hormone therapy and reproductive health
When you are adjusting hormone therapy, it can be difficult to tell what is changing and what is just noise. Symptoms and mood can shift, and it is not always clear whether your current dose is producing the effect you and your clinician intend.
This test measures follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinising hormone (LH), two pituitary hormones that regulate reproductive signalling. Tracking FSH and LH can help you understand whether signalling is being suppressed or stimulated in line with your treatment goals, and support more informed discussions about next steps.
If you want clearer data to guide your decisions, you can order the GenderGP FSH & LH test today.

What the GenderGP FSH & LH test is for
FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) and LH (luteinising hormone) are pituitary hormones that sit upstream of many sex-hormone pathways. They act as signalling messengers between the brain and the gonads, helping regulate reproductive function and influencing whether hormone production is being stimulated or suppressed.
This home blood test measures FSH and LH so you can see how that signalling is behaving in the context of hormone therapy. For trans patients, results can add useful clarity when you and your clinician are adjusting treatment, particularly when symptoms, mood, or body changes feel hard to interpret. Rather than relying on how things feel week to week, FSH and LH can help indicate whether the body’s reproductive signalling is moving in the direction intended by your plan.
FSH and LH are involved in processes such as ovulation in people assigned female at birth and spermatogenesis in people assigned male at birth. Tracking these hormones over time can support more informed conversations about dose changes, suppression, and overall treatment effectiveness, alongside other relevant clinical information.
This home test kit makes testing from home straightforward, giving you a clear snapshot of FSH and LH at a point in time, with data you can use to guide next steps with confidence.

How this works ›Why take the GenderGP FSH & LH test?
For transgender patients undergoing hormone therapy, these tests can help assess the effectiveness of the treatment in suppressing or achieving certain reproductive functions and ensuring that hormone levels are within the desired range for their gender affirmation process.
- Are adjusting hormone therapy dose and want objective data (FSH/LH) to guide treatment changes with your clinician
- Are on or considering puberty blockers (GnRH analogues) and want to confirm pituitary gonadotropin (FSH/LH) suppression.
- Are undergoing gender-affirming hormone therapy and want to assess whether reproductive signalling (FSH/LH) is being suppressed or stimulated as intended
- Have had a change in symptoms and want to check whether your hormone levels match how you feel
- Want to assess fertility-related reproductive axis activity (e.g., ovulation/spermatogenesis signalling) while on or before changing hormone therapy.
- Want to track hormone level trends over time between appointments rather than rely on guesswork
- Want to understand hormonal balance and cycle/perimenopause changes using FSH and LH

Follicle-stimulating hormone is a crucial sex hormone associated with fertility. It should be measured by both partners when there is difficulty in getting pregnant.
In women, it is involved in egg development and should be tested if you have irregular or no menstrual periods.
In men it plays a role in sperm production so should be checked if you have a lowered sperm count, low muscle mass or decreased sex drive.
