One of the first tests for women will be a blood draw that looks at various hormones,
Including progesterone.
An increase in progesterone levels shows ovulation.
AMH anti-mullerian hormone levels show how well the ovaries function.
Very low levels can suggest low ovarian reserve.
FSH,
Follicle stimulating hormone,
Triggers your ovaries to prepare an egg for release each month.
High FSH can mean lower fertility in women.
Your doctor may also want to check prolactin levels,
Thyroid function,
And other hormones specific to your situation.
Here are some yoga poses that help balance hormones.

As you wait for the results of any test,
Try not to be stressed.
I'm sorry if you receive results that your hormone levels are preventing you from getting pregnant.
But try to see it as an opportunity instead of an obstacle.
You now are equipped with knowledge that can help you proceed on your path to making a baby.
Feel empowered that your doctor will provide you with next steps,
Which may include medication and thyroid replacement hormones.
Put one foot in front of the other,
One day at a time,
And continue to use meditation to calm your emotions and cultivate a sense of deep inner peace.
Yea,
With a K
