What Does a Progesterone Test Measure?
The progesterone test measures the level of progesterone hormone in your blood. Progesterone is produced primarily by the ovaries after ovulation and is essential for preparing the uterine lining for pregnancy, maintaining early pregnancy, and regulating the menstrual cycle. In men, it serves as a precursor for other hormones.
How the Test Works
The Progesterone test is performed via a standard blood draw at any Quest Diagnostics location. Your sample is sent to a CLIA-certified lab for analysis. Results are typically available within 1-2 business days in your JustLabs account.
