Why am I not getting pregnant? Hormone Check
Why isn't it working?
✔ Medically classify cycle phase
✔ Analyze hormone status
✔ Determine egg reserve
What role do hormones play in the desire to have children?
The female cycle is regulated by a finely tuned interaction of various hormones. Even small deviations can affect ovulation or reduce the likelihood of fertilization.
A blood test provides information on
- whether ovulation is occurring
- whether the hormone levels match the cycle timing
- the level of ovarian reserve
This allows potential causes to be identified at an early stage.
What is the egg reserve?
The ovarian reserve describes the remaining number of functional eggs in the ovaries. It naturally decreases with age.
An important marker is the Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH).
The AMH level provides indications of how many eggs are still available and how to assess the ovarian reserve.
A low value does not automatically mean infertility – however, it helps with realistic planning.
When is a hormone check useful?
👶 When pregnancy does not occur
🔄 With irregular cycle
📉 With hormonal imbalance
⏳ At higher reproductive age
🧪 Before fertility treatment
Which values are analyzed?
Depending on the test profile, the following hormones are determined, among others:
- AMH (ovarian reserve)
- FSH and LH (cycle regulation)
- Estradiol
- Progesterone
- if applicable, thyroid values
Only the combination of these values allows for a well-founded classification.

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions about Stress, Burnout, and Cortisol Levels
CRP value — what is it and why is it important?
CRP value — what is it and why is it important?
The CRP value (C-reactive protein) is an inflammation marker in the body. It indicates whether there is an acute or chronic inflammation and is often used to assess the severity and cause of inflammations.
How is the CRP value measured?
How is the CRP value measured?
The CRP level is determined by a blood test. A simple blood sample is sufficient to measure the CRP level and detect possible inflammatory processes in the body.
What reference ranges are there for the inflammatory marker (CRP value)?
What reference ranges are there for the inflammatory marker (CRP value)?
A normal CRP level is below 5 mg/L. Levels between 5 and 10 mg/L indicate a mild inflammation, while levels above 10 mg/L may suggest an acute inflammation or infection. A high CRP level is often a sign of a severe inflammation.
What can elevated CRP levels mean?
What can elevated CRP levels mean?
An elevated CRP level indicates an inflammatory reaction in the body. If the CRP level is elevated, it can have several causes. Possible causes include bacterial infections, autoimmune diseases, injuries, or chronic inflammations such as arthritis. Cardiovascular diseases can also be associated with slightly elevated CRP levels.
What symptoms can indicate a high CRP level?
What symptoms can indicate a high CRP level?
Since the CRP level is only a marker for inflammation, it does not itself indicate specific symptoms. However, symptoms of inflammation can include fever, pain, swelling, fatigue, and redness. A CRP test is often performed to clarify the cause of these symptoms.
What is the difference between CRP and hs-CRP?
What is the difference between CRP and hs-CRP?
The hs-CRP (high-sensitivity CRP) measures very low CRP levels and is often used to assess cardiovascular risk. While the regular CRP test measures acute inflammation, the hs-CRP test indicates subtle inflammation that may be associated with a higher risk of heart disease.
What can I do to lower my inflammation marker (CRP level)?
What can I do to lower my inflammation marker (CRP level)?
A healthy lifestyle can help lower CRP levels. Regular exercise, an anti-inflammatory diet, adequate sleep, and stress management contribute to the reduction of inflammation. In cases of acute inflammation, treatment with medication may be necessary.
When should the CRP level be checked?
When should the CRP level be checked?
The CRP level should be checked if there is suspicion of an acute or chronic inflammation or if symptoms such as fever, joint pain, or fatigue occur. The hs-CRP level can also be helpful in assessing the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Can medications affect the CRP level?
Can medications affect the CRP level?
Yes, some medications can affect the inflammatory marker (CRP level). Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as corticosteroids or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), can lower the CRP level. Before a CRP test, the doctor should be informed about all medications taken.
How long does it take for the CRP level to normalize after an inflammation?
How long does it take for the CRP level to normalize after an inflammation?
The CRP level usually decreases within a few days after the cause of the inflammation has been treated. However, in chronic cases, the CRP level may remain elevated for a longer period, and regular monitoring may be necessary.
