Progesterone Blood Test for Ovulation in Southampton – Solent Pharmacy
The progesterone blood test is a key fertility test that confirms whether or not ovulation has occurred during a menstrual cycle. At Solent Pharmacy in Shirley, Southampton, we offer professional, discreet, and quick access to progesterone testing to help individuals monitor their fertility and optimise their chances of conception.
What Is the Progesterone Test and Why Is It Important?
Progesterone is a hormone released by the ovaries after ovulation. Measuring progesterone levels in your blood—typically around day 21 of a 28-day cycle—helps confirm whether ovulation has taken place. This is vital information for:
• Women who are trying to conceive
• Individuals with irregular periods
• Those undergoing fertility treatment or tracking
• Women experiencing recurrent miscarriages
If progesterone levels are too low during the luteal phase (after ovulation), it may suggest that ovulation did not occur, or that there’s an issue with hormone production affecting fertility.
