Role of Hormones in Fertility
From stimulating the development of an egg, to ovulation and implantation of a fertilized egg in the uterus, hormones control each and every aspect of your fertility and chances of conception. Each hormone that plays a role in conception must be produced in a specific amount and at a precise time during your menstrual cycle for pregnancy to occur. Hormone testing helps doctors understand whether these hormones are functioning normally and identify possible hormonal factors that may affect fertility.
