Female Fertility Testing: What You Need to Know

Trying to conceive but not yet successful? Female factors contribute to nearly 40% of infertility cases — knowing your fertility status can make all the difference.

At Labtest Zote Diagnostics in Nairobi, we provide fast, confidential, and accurate female fertility testing to help guide your journey.

Here’s what every woman should know:

🧪 1. Hormonal Profiling
Tests key hormones that regulate your cycle and ovulation, including:
✔️ Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)
✔️ Luteinizing Hormone (LH)
✔️ Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) – measures ovarian reserve
✔️ Prolactin and thyroid hormones

Hormonal imbalances can disrupt ovulation and reduce fertility.

🩸 2. Ovulation Testing
Confirms if and when you ovulate, critical for timing conception.

🔬 3. Infection Screening
Detects infections that can affect reproductive health, such as pelvic inflammatory disease.

👩⚕️ Who Should Get Tested?

Women trying to conceive for 6–12 months without success

Women over 35 years old

Those with irregular or absent menstrual cycles

Women with PCOS, endometriosis, or history of miscarriages

Anyone wanting to understand their fertility status

✅ Make informed decisions about treatment or lifestyle changes
✅ Increase your chances of successful conception

🔍 Male Fertility Testing: Why Semen & Testosterone Tests Matter

Struggling to conceive? It’s not just a women’s issue — male factors are involved in nearly 50% of infertility cases.

At Labtest Zote Diagnostics in Nairobi, we offer comprehensive male fertility testing — fast, confidential, and accurate.

Here’s what every man planning for fatherhood should know:

🧪 1. Semen Analysis

This test checks the quality and quantity of s***m. It measures:

✔️ S***m count – how many s***m are present
✔️ Motility – how well they swim
✔️ Morphology – their shape and structure
✔️ Volume, pH, and signs of infection

Even healthy men can have low s***m quality — and you won’t know until you test.

💉 2. Testosterone Testing

Testosterone is key for:

✔️ S***m production
✔️ Libido and s*xual health
✔️ Energy, mood, and overall wellness

Low testosterone can affect fertility, even if semen looks normal. A simple blood test can provide answers and guide next steps.

👨⚕️ Who Should Get Tested?

Couples trying for 6+ months without success

Men with past infections, groin injury, or chronic illness

Men over 35 planning to start a family

Anyone with symptoms of low libido, energy, or mood changes

Just curious about your reproductive health? It's worth checking.

💡 Why It Matters

Early testing can help you:

✅ Identify and treat issues early
✅ Save time, money, and stress
✅ Take charge of your fertility journey
✅ Get answers — not assumptions

Why the Urine Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio (UACR) Test Matters

Kidney damage can start silently. The UACR test checks for protein in urine, an early sign of kidney disease — especially in people with diabetes or high blood pressure.

Detect early kidney issues

Monitor diabetes or hypertension

Prevent kidney failure and heart disease

👩⚕️ Who Should Test?

Diabetics & hypertensives

Adults 60+

Anyone with a family history of kidney disease

People with swelling or fatigue

📊 Normal UACR:

< 3 mg/mmol = Normal

3–30 = Early damage

🚨 What You Need to Know About Vitamin B12 Deficiency

Vitamin B12 is essential for energy, brain function, and red blood cell production. But deficiency is more common than you think — and it can go unnoticed for years.

A simple blood test can tell you if you’re getting enough of this vital nutrient.

✅ Why Get a Vitamin B12 Test?

Detect or confirm B12 deficiency

Identify cause of fatigue, brain fog, or numbness

Monitor levels if you’re on a vegan or vegetarian diet

Check absorption if you have gut or autoimmune issues

Support neurological health and mental clarity

👩⚕️ Who Should Consider Testing?

People with low energy or unexplained fatigue

Vegans/vegetarians (B12 is mostly found in animal products)

Adults over 50 (absorption declines with age)

Those with digestive disorders (Crohn’s, celiac, gastritis)

Anyone taking metformin or acid-reducing medications

Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals

🔬 What the Test Measures:

Your blood’s active Vitamin B12 level

May include methylmalonic acid (MMA) or homocysteine for accuracy

Helps assess risk of anemia, nerve damage, or cognitive decline

✨ Don’t ignore low energy or tingling limbs — it could be your B12.
Get tested. Stay sharp. Stay strong.

🧪 The 4th Generation HIV Test: Earlier Detection. Greater Peace of Mind.

The 4th Gen HIV Test is the most advanced screening available — detecting HIV sooner and more accurately than older tests.

It works by identifying both:
✔️ HIV antibodies (your body’s response)
✔️ HIV p24 antigen (a protein that appears early after infection)

This allows detection as early as 2–4 weeks after exposure — meaning faster answers and earlier care if needed.

✅ Why It Matters:

Early detection = better treatment & less chance of transmission

More accurate than older (3rd gen) tests

Ideal for routine screening or post-exposure testing

Fast results — usually within 1–2 business days

Fully confidential and clinician-reviewed

👩⚕️ Who Should Get Tested?

After unprotected s*x or a new s*xual partner

If your partner is living with HIV or at higher risk

If you’ve shared needles or drug equipment

If you’re pregnant or planning to be

If you’ve had flu-like symptoms 2–6 weeks after possible exposure

✨ HIV is manageable — but only if you know your status.
Don’t wait. Get tested. Protect yourself and others.

🦴 Is Your Bone Health at Risk?
Bone Biochemistry Testing could be the key to detecting issues before they become serious.

Subtle changes in your calcium, vitamin D, or hormone levels can silently weaken your bones — increasing the risk of fractures, osteoporosis, or chronic conditions.

Detect early signs of bone loss or osteoporosis

Monitor calcium, phosphate, and vitamin D levels

Assess parathyroid function and bone metabolism

Support management of kidney, thyroid, or hormonal conditions

👩⚕️ Who Should Get Tested?

Adults over 50 (especially postmenopausal women)

People with a history of fractures or bone conditions

Individuals with chronic kidney or endocrine disorders

Anyone taking steroids or medications that affect bone density

Those with unexplained bone pain or fatigue

🔬 What’s Included in the Test?

Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) – regulates calcium balance

Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) – marker of bone turnover

✨ Healthy bones = confident movement, strength, and longevity.
Early testing = early prevention.
