About the Test Panel:
Infertility is becoming increasingly common in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention approximately 12 percent (7.3 million) of women in the United States (ages 15–44) have difficulty getting pregnant and staying pregnant. So if you are one of those who are struggling, please realize that you are not alone.
While there are many causes (age, lifestyle, stress, malnutrition), those dealing with infertility may wonder what they can do to become more fertile.
Having these nutrient levels checked is a great place to start for individuals, both men and women, who are having difficulty conceiving.
