Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) plays an important role in female fertility and conception. Polymorphism in the two important genes related to this hormone may result in problems during ovarian stimulation and sometimes hyperstimulation in women undergoing IVF treatment. The test involves genotype testing in women to detect polymorphism in two genes FSHR and FSHB.
