The Female 10-Test Hormone Imbalance Panel is a blood test that measures ten hormones to help evaluate symptoms that may be related to hormonal changes. It is often ordered when a person has irregular periods, fertility concerns, or signs of a hormone imbalance.

What it measures

  • Estradiol — A form of estrogen that helps regulate the menstrual cycle.
  • Progesterone — A hormone that rises after ovulation and supports early pregnancy.
  • Testosterone — A hormone present in both sexes; higher levels can cause acne or excess hair.
  • DHEA-S — An adrenal hormone that can affect energy and hair growth.
  • FSH — Stimulates the ovaries to prepare an egg each cycle.
  • LH — Triggers ovulation and helps regulate the menstrual cycle.

Who it is for

This panel is typically ordered by a primary care clinician, gynecologist, or endocrinologist for women with symptoms such as irregular periods, hot flashes, or difficulty conceiving.

Preparation

Fasting is often recommended, and testing may be timed to a specific day of your menstrual cycle. Follow your clinician's instructions; if no prep is needed, they will tell you.

Results and what they mean

Results are reported as numerical values with reference ranges, which vary by age and cycle day. A clinician interprets these results alongside your symptoms and history. This is general information, not medical advice.
