Female Fertility Hormones
• Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH): FSH is created
by the pituitary gland. Ovaries contain follicles that hold
immature eggs. Along with Luteinizing Hormone (LH),
FSH promotes the growth of ovarian follicles FSH
increases the production of estradiol, a kind of
oestrogen which controls the menstrual cycle and
fertility.
• Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH): AMH is produced by
the ovarian follicles and holds on to the immature eggs.
AMH is closely linked with the number of eggs a woman
has left. Low AMH mean a woman has few eggs
remaining & very high AMH signal polycystic ovarian
syndrome (PCOS).

woman’s menstrual cycle and capability to carry
a baby. The progesterone makes the womb
ready for possible implantation. If no egg
fertilization occurs, then progesterone levels will
decrease. But if conception happens,
progesterone levels will rise & develop the
placenta. This will ensure a supply of
progesterone throughout the pregnancy.
