2025 Fertility Test Reviews

Ulta Lab Tests

• Over 100 tests related to fertility/pregnancy
• Tests for men and women
• Samples drawn at Quest Diagnostics, other partner locations, and at home (draw fees of $8.95+ associated with each option)
• Samples tested at national CLIA-certified laboratories
• Results typically within 1-3 business days
• Over 1,000 5-star reviews
• "A+” rated by the BBB
• In business since 2013

Like some rival fertility test options on our list, Ulta Lab Tests is a direct-to-consumer healthcare company that offers a wide range of lab testing services without the need for a doctor's referral. Through its digital platform, Ulta Lab Tests provides access to over 1,000 tests, covering various aspects of health and wellness, including allergy, hormone, metabolic, and disease screening. Customers can conveniently order tests online, visit one of the numerous affiliated labs nationwide to have their samples collected, and receive detailed results within a few days. With transparent pricing, a focus on customer education, and a commitment to empowering individuals to take charge of their health, Ulta Lab Tests aims to make healthcare more accessible and affordable, including the fertility journey.

Over 100 fertility-related tests

Ulta Lab Tests has the most extensive selection of fertility- and pregnancy-related tests of all of the providers we evaluated, coming in at 114 different services at the time of this review. You can either search for the name of the test, if you know exactly what you need, or click on one of the subcategories (such as Infertility for Men, Infertility for Women, Reproductive Hormone Tests, and so on). The list is too long for us to tell you every option at Ulta, but here's a sampler of what you'll find there:

• Infertility for Men: 17 tests, including Post-Vasectomy Sperm Count ($59.95) and Testosterone: Free/Bioavailable/Total, LC/MS/MS ($90.95)
• Infertility for Women: 22 tests, including AMH ($87.95), FSH and LH ($38.95), and a comprehensive panel of 14 tests and 21 biomarkers ($498)
• Reproductive Hormone Tests: 72 tests. This is the best category to browse if you want a panel of fertility hormones tested at once.

Save as much as 80% over typical self-pay costs

You'll notice pretty quickly that Ulta Lab Tests is significantly less expensive than many of the fertility testing providers we researched. The company says that's from their negotiations with labs to bring costs down as much as 80% when compared with the self-pay price you'd be charged if you went to the lab directly. There's also a good chance that you can get your Ulta Lab fertility tests even cheaper: just watch for a pop-up as you browse. During our most recent visit to the site, we got a discount of 20% by providing our email address; the code was displayed on the screen immediately, with no waiting for an email to arrive.

Expect draw fees of $8.95+

How will you submit your samples for Ulta Lab Tests? They refer to their partner locations as "Patient Service Centers”, but their FAQ reveals that those will almost always be Quest Diagnostics locations. You can use the Locations tab to find the options near you; there's usually an $8.95 "draw fee” for having your blood sample taken, but some locations come with a "premium draw fee” and may even be mobile for the purpose of having your draw at home or another location of your choice. We saw those fees for anywhere between $45 to $100. You'll select a testing location during checkout and pay those fees in advance.

Results in 1-3 business days

Once your samples are sent to one of Ulta Lab Tests' national CLIA-certified laboratories, your results should be available in your online patient portal within 1-3 business days. While your fertility testing doesn't come with a physician consultation of any kind, you will be alerted if your results show anything abnormal with a "critical or panic value” that requires immediate medical care, or if your tests are positive for a communicable disease.

Excellent reputation, loyal repeat customers

Ulta Lab Tests has a great reputation overall. The Better Business Bureau offers the company a perfect "A+” rating, and customers have left numerous 5-star reviews for the service (or 10-star reviews, if you look at the ones featured on the Ulta Lab Tests site itself). We're particularly encouraged by those who have used Ulta time and again because the tests are consistently affordable and the results are accurate. While there aren't any reviews on the specific fertility tests themselves, we have every reason to believe that the patient experience for those analyses is just as top-notch.

#1 option for on-demand fertility tests

We give Ulta Lab Tests our highest ranking among providers of fertility tests. The site is super-easy to use, and we love the fact that patients get to decide not only which tests they want, but where they want their blood samples to be drawn (even with a mobile phlebotomist, if desired). The tests are numerous and extremely affordable, results are delivered quickly, and the choice is yours whether or not to share those results with your healthcare provider. Ulta Lab Tests earns 5 stars for fertility testing and our enthusiastic recommendation.

Walk In Lab

• Numerous tests for men's and women's fertility
• Most tests done through Labcorp or Quest; some options through other labs as well (ZRT, GDX) as well as home testing kits
• Guaranteed lowest price
• Can pay with HSA/FSA
• "A+” rated and accredited by the BBB
• In business since 2009

Walk-In Lab, established in 2009, aims to help individuals manage healthcare expenses while monitoring their overall health. Committed to operational excellence with an innovative approach, Walk-In Lab offers a wide array of lab tests without needing a physician's referral. They are dedicated to superior customer service, provided by professionally trained and experienced staff. One notable feature is the private and secure Confidential Lab Record (CLR), giving customers 24-hour access to their lab test records. This ensures peace of mind and complete control over one's own health information.

Finding the right tests takes time

Walk-In Lab isn't the easiest site to use for fertility testing: they don't offer that as a distinct testing category, so you'll have to do some searching to find the analyses you need. For example, you could do a generic search for "fertility” (119 results), or use the filters/categories for Women Specific Tests, Men Specific Tests, and Hormone Tests.

Very clear on the details

But, once you do find the test(s) that you need, it's pretty easy to see where you'll go to have the samples drawn: most will be offered either through Quest or Labcorp, though we found a few tests through other providers (ZRT, GDX). We like that Walk-In Lab puts that decision in your hands, and that they make it clear what you'll pay upfront. You'll also be able to see in which states you may not be eligible to purchase each test, any special preparation instructions, and how long you can expect it to take to get your results.

Offers today's most popular fertility tests

So, let's take a peek at a few of the most common fertility tests on the market, so you'll know what you'll get at Walk-In Lab:

• Hormone #1 Baseline Blood Test Panel for Women: measures Estradiol, FSH, LH, Progesterone, Testosterone. This fertility test was priced at $209 at Quest and $269 at Labcorp.
• Hormone #1 Baseline Blood Test Panel for Men: measures Testosterone (Total/Free), Insulin, Estradiol (E2), FSH, LH, TSH, DHEA-S. This test was also priced at $209/$269 at Quest and Labcorp, respectively.
• Fertility Hormone Blood Test Panel: this test includes analysis of FSH, LH, AMH, Estradiol (E2). It was priced at $175 at Quest and $200 at Labcorp.

Price matching

One perk Walk-In Lab offers that many rivals do not is price matching. If you find a fertility test for a lower price elsewhere, contact Walk-In Lab before you place your order. They'll match the price as long as the labs match (it's a Quest-administered test on the competitor website and on Walk-In Labs'). We love the commitment to lowering your costs here.

Physicians review results, but no consult unless there's a problem

While your fertility testing won't automatically come with a physician consult, you can rest assured that your results will be reviewed by one of Walk-In Lab's ordering physicians. You'll be notified by a Results Specialist if anything comes back as "critical” or with any kind of alert.

Reputation is fantastic

Walk-In Lab has one of the best reputations in our review, boasting a perfect "A+" rating from the BBB and numerous positive reviews. On one site, it has an impressive average rating of 4.8 stars out of 5, based on nearly 17,000 reviews. On Trustpilot, 88% of all reviews are a perfect 5 stars. Customers appreciate the easy access to tests and the remarkably low costs, even for those without insurance. Many reviewers highlight that they regularly choose Walk-In Lab for tests like routine blood work.

Terrific option for most kinds of fertility testing

Although the user experience of the Walk-In Lab website could be improved, we can't argue with its track record. Thousands of people have successfully used the service for fertility testing and much more, and you're literally guaranteed to get the lowest price for Quest and Labcorp tests. What's not to love? We give Walk-In Lab an excellent rating.

HealthLabs

• Fertility tests for men and women
• Samples are collected at Quest or Labcorp (over 4,500 locations)
• Results typically within 1-3 days
• 110% price match guarantee
• Parent company, Analyte Health, is "A” rated and accredited by the BBB
• Thousands of 5-star reviews
• In operation since 2015

HealthLabs has been offering affordable lab testing online since 2015, making it a convenient option for anyone who doesn't have insurance (or whose coverage of lab work isn't great), who would rather order tests on their own, or whose doctors won't provide the order for tests the patients would like to have. HealthLabs works with thousands of trusted CLIA-certified lab locations across the United States. They make it easy for you to order common blood and urine lab tests, providing the prescriptive order for each test.

Tests typically analyze just 1 or 2 fertility factors

HealthLabs offers fertility tests for men and women. However, you should expect to pay for what you need one by one: we noticed that there weren't really any comprehensive panels offered here, and that might add up quickly. HealthLabs groups these tests together under the category of Fertility & Pregnancy Testing. Here are the ones that fall in the Fertility section:

• AMH: $89
• DHEA Sulfate: $169
• Estradiol: $99
• Estrogen Test, Total: $79
• FSH: $49
• Free T3: $99
• Free T4: $39
• FSH + LH: $59
• LH: $49
• Progesterone: $45
• Prolactin: $59
• Testosterone - Free: $59
• Testosterone - Total: $49
• Testosterone - Free and Total: $99
• Thyroid Panel: $39
• Thyroid Panel with TSH: $59
• TSH: $39

Most tests will be done at Quest or Labcorp

When you've chosen the test you need, enter your zip code to find out which testing locations are closest to you. HealthLabs works with both Quest and Labcorp to collect the samples required for all of their tests, including those for fertility. And, unlike some rival sites that use both Quest and Labcorp. HealthLabs doesn't charge different prices based on the lab you use: it's just one standard price regardless of the lab that does the draw.

Price matching and advisors on call

While we couldn't find more details about the 110% price match guarantee advertised on the HealthLabs site, we'd encourage you to keep that in mind if you happen to find one of their fertility tests at a lower price somewhere else. This company has a toll-free number for you to reach out, to ask about the price guarantee or any other question you might have before or after doing your fertility test. If your test results warrant it, you can consult one of HealthLabs' physicians too. Most tests should have results to you within 3 days, and HealthLabs' Care Advisors are available every day from 6a-10p (CST).

Lots of 5-star reviews

With respect to overall reputation, HealthLabs is doing pretty well. Its parent company, Analyte Health, has an "A” rating and accreditation from the Better Business Bureau. Both on the BBB site and on third-party rating platforms, HealthLabs gets thousands of 5-star reviews. While you'll find the occasional glitch with getting tests processed or other customer service issues, HealthLabs' reps are always responsive. And, the vast majority of users say that the service is easy and fast, both for ordering the tests and getting them done with quick results.

Trustworthy option for fertility tests

HealthLabs earns a well-above-average rating from us. While we'd like to see some options for fertility testing panels, so that patients could more easily screen for multiple hormones at the same time, the a la carte pricing here is competitive even before taking advantage of the 110% price match guarantee. Thousands of people have used HealthLabs to get the answers they need, and we're confident they'll deliver on your fertility tests too.

Ro

• One fertility hormone test for women
• Tests 2-7 hormones, depending on whether or not you're using hormonal birth control at the time of testing
• Can submit finger prick blood sample or be tested at a Quest lab
• Cost: $179 (FSA/HSA reimbursable)
• Free shipping
• Results in 7-10 days
• Test averages 4.5 stars across 2,200+ reviews
• Can also buy ovulation and pregnancy tests
• "A+” rated and accredited by the BBB
• In business since 2017

Ro is a direct-to-consumer telehealth company that specializes in providing personalized healthcare solutions through its digital platform. Founded in 2017, Ro initially gained recognition with its men's health brand, Roman, focusing on erectile dysfunction, hair loss, and other male health issues. The company has since expanded its offerings to include women's health through its Rory brand and acquisition of Modern Fertility, and general health through its Ro Pharmacy, which delivers prescription medications at low costs. Ro integrates telemedicine consultations, personalized treatment plans, and medication delivery, aiming to improve access to healthcare and streamline the treatment process for various medical conditions.

Test options are more limited here

With respect to fertility testing, Ro's options are more limited in number than some options on our list. From what we can tell, they used to offer sperm testing but don't any longer; you can still log in to your dashboard if you've used that service previously, but there's no product listing for new clients of that type of fertility testing. You can also buy ovulation and pregnancy testing through Ro, but the main product you'll probably be interested in is the Modern Fertility Hormone Test.

Your birth control method will determine your fertility testing here

This fertility test for women claims to be "the same hormone test typically offered by reproductive endocrinologists for a fraction of the price”. What's tested will depend on whether or not you're using hormone-based birth control: all patients' blood samples will be analyzed for AMH and TSH, while only those who aren't on hormonal birth control may also be tested for FSH, Estradiol, Prolactin, Free Thyroxine (depending on your levels of TSH), and LH. At a price of $179, we're not sure that Ro's fertility test is quite the bargain they advertise (given that it's the same cost whether you only test for AMH/TSH or all 7 elements), but it's not too far off the mark compared with other testing options on our list.

Very thorough help after you test

But, we're big fans of Ro's transparency with what you'll get as a user of their Modern Fertility Hormone Test. Check out their sample fertility hormone test report to get an idea of what exactly you'll learn when you opt for their service. The company seems to go to great lengths to make sure you understand your results (which you should have within 7-10 days of your sample arriving at their lab; you'll either do the finger prick yourself or visit a Quest lab to have it drawn). And, once your results are in, you'll be able to use Ro's customized fertility planning tools based on your goals and timeframe, plus a community platform to ask questions of their fertility experts and connect with others who understand your journey.

"A+” and accreditation from the BBB

Ro has an "A+” rating and accreditation from the Better Business Bureau. We did find it a little funny that the BBB's description of Ro said that it's "an online portal [for] male customers” given that the site is very obviously useful for males and females, but okay. Evidently the BBB hasn't caught up with Ro's 2021 acquisition of Modern Fertility.

Fertility test gets over 2,000 5-star ratings

And the rest of Ro's reputation? To be honest, it depends on what you're coming to Ro for. If it's for the Modern Fertility Hormone Test, you're probably going to be happy with the service: across 2,200+ reviews (curated/filtered, we presume), the average is an impressive 4.5 stars. Although those reviews didn't go past 2023, for reasons we're unsure of, they're mostly enthusiastic recommendations for this fertility test. Some said they would have preferred to have it done at their doctor's office for the cost of a copay, but not everyone has access to insurance; that's why companies like Ro exist, after all.

Non-fertility customers aren't always thrilled

Other Ro services are the reason behind the company's 3.9-star average at Trustpilot, most recently their semaglutide injections. That service gets a lot of 1-star reviews. But, when we filtered Trustpilot's ratings for the word "fertility”, there were only two matches, and neither would impact your decision on whether or not the Modern Fertility Hormone test is right for you.

Solid option for comprehensive female fertility testing

If you're specifically looking for female fertility testing for the purpose of having a baby (whether now or sometime in the future), Ro's singular option is a solid one. The interface is modern and provides you with a lot of tools for your planning, and it's one of the only ones we've seen that makes a point to find out more about you (if you're on hormonal birth control) to guide you to the right fertility test panel. While we'd love to see some options for men (back) on the table and maybe some lower-cost tests for women who just need to analyze one or two aspects of their fertility, Ro's overall value is good.

Personalabs

• Range of 20 fertility tests for men and women
• Testing done at either Labcorp or Quest (no at-home kits)
• Doctor's lab orders delivered within 2-4 hours via email
• Results via email within 2-10 business days, depending on the test
• Can have a telehealth follow-up visit go to over results if desired
• In business since 2006
• "A+” rated by the BBB

Personalabs was founded in 2006, in response to everyday Americans' desire for access to lab testing without having to also spend money on a doctor visit. Fertility testing is no different: if you'd like insights into your hormones, iron levels, or even to confirm if you're pregnant, Personalabs is there for you.

All testing done via Labcorp or Quest

All of the fertility tests offered by Personalabs will have the samples collected either at Quest or Labcorp: some tests give you the choice of which one to use, but a few are limited strictly to one or the other (an hCG Pregnancy Test with Gestational Table blood test is only offered via Quest). None of the fertility tests here have an at-home sample collection alternative, so keep that in mind if you were hoping for fertility testing you could do in the privacy of your own home.

Easy to buy your test and go to the lab the same day

Here's how it works: first, you'll create a Personalabs account and choose the fertility tests you want (and through which lab; you're able to mix-and-match if you have both Quest and Labcorp conveniently located near you). Once you've paid for your tests, Personalabs' physician network will approve the order, usually within 2-4 hours, though some tests can take up to 24 hours to be approved. Visit the lab at your convenience; you may want to schedule an appointment online through the lab's website. You should have your results within 24-48 hours.

Can pay for a telehealth consultation to go over results

One extra perk offered by Personalabs is the option of scheduling a follow-up with one of their board-certified physicians to go over your results. These are all telehealth-type appointments, so you can "meet” with the doctor in the privacy of your own home. You'll have to check with Personalabs on pricing, but they say that they're usually less expensive than a face-to-face visit with your usual doctor.

Usually cheaper than buying directly from the labs

Given that both Quest and Labcorp now have the ability to order fertility testing directly from them, why would you go through Personalabs at all? The most obvious answer is price: you could pay less for the exact same test when you start here. For example, the Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) Blood Test is offered through Personalabs for $98 at Quest and $112 at Labcorp; when you go directly to either of those labs, Quest charges $135 and Labcorp doesn't even have it listed.

Most, but not all, fertility tests available here

But, not every fertility test offered by Quest and Labcorp is sold through Personalabs either. So, here's a list of what you can expect through this service, and the prices as of the time of our review:

• Quantitative Pregnancy Blood Test (AKA Beta hCG): $54/Quest, $38 Labcorp
• Calcium Blood Test: $49/Quest, $51/Labcorp
• Ferritin Blood Test: $52/Quest, $55/Labcorp
• Qualitative Pregnancy Blood Test: $57/Quest
• Prolactin Blood Test: $59/Quest, $70/Labcorp
• Progesterone Blood Test: $61/Quest, $69/Labcorp
• Folic Acid/Folate/Vitamin B9 Blood Test: $66/Quest
• FSH Blood Test: $66/Quest, $68/Labcorp
• Luteinizing Hormone (LH) Blood Test: $66/Quest, $68/Labcorp
• Sex Hormone Binding Globulin Blood Test (male fertility): $78/Quest, $74/Labcorp
• Vitamin B12 and Folates Blood Test: $76/Quest, $78/Labcorp
• FSH and LH Blood Test: $91/Quest, $92/Labcorp
• Estriol (E3) Blood Test: $95/Quest, $188/Labcorp
• hCG Pregnancy Test with Gestational Table Blood Test: $96/Quest
• Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) Blood Test: $98/Quest, $112/Labcorp
• Amenorrhea Profile Blood Test: $108/Quest, $118/Labcorp
• Prenatal Hormone Panel with hCG Pregnancy Blood Test and Gestational Table: $229/Quest
• Prenatal Blood Test Basic: $293/Quest, $273/Labcorp
• Female Fertility Profile Blood Test: $341/Quest, $327/Labcorp
• Prenatal Blood Panel Comprehensive Blood Test: $372/Quest, $339/Labcorp

Solid track record

Overall, the reputation for Personalabs is good, shown by an "A+” from the Better Business Bureau and plenty of positive reviews from customers reporting back in various places. Most people say that they got their results as expected and there were no surprises during the process, though we couldn't find any comments or reviews specific to fertility testing through Personalabs.

A few customer service snags

Just one tip: don't count on getting answers to any questions through the site's live chat. Even when we visited during the regular posted business hours, we were told that their agents were "away” and invited to leave a message; the link to do so resulted in a 404 error (which is less than impressive customer service, to be honest).

Better than paying full price at the lab

We give Personalabs an above-average score among the options for fertility testing on demand. Although this service is missing some of the convenient test-at-home kits you'll see elsewhere, we appreciate the way that Personalabs makes it easy to get your samples collected through both the Quest and Labcorp networks, often at prices that beat going directly to those labs themselves. If you don't find what you need with Personalabs' higher-ranked rivals on our list, you should have no qualms about getting your fertility tests here.

Everlywell

• Women's fertility testing only
• Priced at $149 (with free shipping)
• At-home test kit (saliva/finger prick)
• Measures estradiol, LH, FSH, TSH, total testosterone
• Lab is CLIA-certified
• Physician-reviewed results ready in a few days
• Can pay with HSA/FSA
• "A+” rated by the BBB
• In business since 2015

Since 2015, Everlywell has been on a mission to put healthcare in the hands of consumers by offering easy access to a wide variety of lab tests. With no doctors' orders required, these tests can be purchased at-will. That's a big win for fertility testing, especially when it's a sensitive subject you might not want to have to schedule an in-person visit with your doctor to discuss just yet. Everlywell has been featured by Bloomberg, Cosmopolitan, Forbes, NYT, Fast Company, and Time, so it's not exactly a new kid on the block. Everlywell is also the testing service behind Natalist, another name you may come across as you search for on-demand fertility tests.

One fertility test offered

But, we want to start right off the bat and point out that there's only one option for fertility testing at Everlywell: the Women's Fertility Test. It comes as a fully at-home kit (no lab visit required) and will use both saliva and a finger prick to test levels of estradiol, LH, FSH, TSH, and total testosterone. The kit comes with clear instructions for how (and when) to collect each component of the testing; just don't forget to register your kit using the QR code, so that you'll be able to easily access your results. Be aware that you may have to do some of the tests during different parts of your menstrual cycle; it's not a "get it all done in one day” kind of fertility test here.

Results in 5 business days

Your kit will be sent to a CLIA-certified laboratory, and a board-certified physician will review the results. You should have them delivered to your Everlywell dashboard within 5 business days of the lab receiving your kit. And, for extra peace of mind, you can see all of Everlywell's partner doctors and their credentials right on the website.

Spin to save

You'll pay $149 for the Women's Fertility Test, but there's an easy way to save a bit: we thought it was a little odd for a fertility test provider to offer a "spin to win” discount, but when every penny matters, why not? By entering your email address, you could get free shipping on your order (though we're pretty sure every order qualifies for that already), a 10% discount, or a savings of $5 to $10 on your first order.

Good overall ratings on the fertility test

Across 40 reviews left on the Everlywell site for the Women's Fertility Test in particular, the ratings averaged 4.58 out of 5 stars and 95% would recommend it to a friend. Users described the instructions as easy to follow and said that the results helped them decide on the appropriate next steps for their healthcare. One woman was unhappy with results taking longer to arrive than she had expected, and another complained that her PCP referred her for a new blood test when the results from Everlywell seemed far from accurate. On the whole, though, this fertility test seems to do what it promises for most patients.

No tests for men

Those are all of the positives of using Everlywell for fertility testing. Unfortunately, there are quite a few negatives you should be aware of too. First off, the most obvious drawback: there are zero options for male fertility testing here. You're just flat out of luck if you're looking for problems on the XY side of the equation.

Overall reputation isn't so fantastic

Second, and maybe even more importantly, Everlywell's overall reputation has us concerned. Even though the Better Business Bureau has given this company an "A+” rating, the reviews and complaints left both with the BBB and on places like Trustpilot paint a picture we can't get excited about. Everlywell has a membership-based structure; while you should be able to order one-off tests without subscribing, many people have complained about winding up with a membership even though they didn't want to opt in. Others have received tests they never ordered (and were charged for them), and across the small spectrum of tests that Everlywell offers, there have been lots of issues with getting the tests processed or receiving results that later turned out to be inaccurate. With customer ratings averaging below 2 stars everywhere that we looked, this company isn't doing a fantastic job of keeping people happy, despite the high ratings on the women's fertility test itself.

Too much room for improvement

While Everlywell looks like a good option for fertility testing at first, there are some downsides that are hard to overlook. You've got much more limited options than you'll find with many of the test providers on our list (nothing for men at all), and we're not fully confident that the results you'll get with the women's fertility test here are going to be on time and accurate. We'd definitely recommend looking at the higher-ranking companies on our list, and leave Everlywell as a last resort.

myLab Box

• 9 types of fertility testing for men and women
• All tests done at home, no lab visit required
• Free shipping on orders over $150
• Can pay with FSA/HSA
• Uses CAP- and CLIA-certified labs
• Results can be anywhere from immediate to 1-5 days after samples are received
• In business since 2014

myLAB Box has been around since 2014, providing tests for a wide range of needs that can all be done at home: no lab visit required, even for blood sample tests. You may have even seen some of their test kits sold at your favorite supermarket or drugstore, but, of course, their best selection is always going to be through their online storefront. That includes fertility testing.

Several fertility tests for men and women

myLAB Box offers the following fertility tests, all under the banner of "Family Planning”:

• Male Fertility Test ($89): this 2-test kit lets you test your sperm count at home. While they don't go into details, myLAB Box explains that as part of this test, you'll have a recorded video of your sample inside their app. But, the phones with which they said the app is compatible were pretty out of date (going only back to the Google Pixel 2XL, which was many years old at the time of our review).
• Perimenopause Test ($99): requires an at-home finger prick to test FSH, Estradiol, and Progesterone.
• Ovulation Confirmation Test ($32): includes 5 test strips to measure PdG in urine. No need to send any samples in for testing; all done at home.
• Testosterone Test ($79): this kit is available for both males and females; just be sure to select the desired option. We were confused, however, that in one part the description says this is done by a finger prick; in another, it says the test is conducted via saliva sample.
• Female Fertility Test ($149): this test measures Estradiol, FSH, LH, and Testosterone with a finger prick and saliva sample.
• Ovarian Reserve (FSH) ($99): if you just want to test FSH and not the other components in the broader Female Fertility Test, this is the right option.
• Postmenopause Test ($99): measures Estradiol and Progesterone. You may just want to do the Perimenopause test, though: it includes FSH at no extra cost.
• Women's Health ($249): the most comprehensive of myLAB Box's fertility tests, it measures Cortisol, DHEA, Estradiol, FSH, LH, Progesterone, Testosterone, TPO, TSH, T3, T4 with a finger prick and saliva sample.
• Men's Health ($199): covers a range of wellness components for men, including Estradiol, DHEA, Cortisol, and Testosterone through a finger prick.

Free shipping over $150

All of myLAB Box's fertility tests can be purchased using HSA/FSA funds, and you'll get free shipping if your order is over $150. Otherwise, your delivery costs will be displayed when you get to the checkout page.

Results timeframe depends on the test

How soon can you expect your results? As you might have concluded already, that depends on the fertility test you've chosen: some provide instant results, while others have to be sent to myLAB Box's partner labs, which are all CAP- and CLIA-certified. The company says you can expect to get results from the latter within 1-5 days of receiving your samples.

Not as transparent as we'd like

We do wish, though, that myLAB Box was more transparent with details about where the samples are going and the name/location of the lab(s); all we could determine is that it's likely in Florida, because the FAQ says that positive test results for chlamydia, gonorrhea, or trich are required by law to be reported to the FL State Department of Health. Beyond STDs, though, myLAB Box doesn't appear to provide any kind of physician consultation once the results are in. You would need to take your fertility test results to your own doctor (which isn't a bad idea anyway).

Too many people are unhappy with this company

Besides the vagueness of where the test samples are going and the lab that's going to test them, myLAB Box fails to keep up with the competition in one more big way: reputation. The Better Business Bureau gives myLAB Box a failing grade, and reviews left there average just 1 star out of 5. We found tons of complaints about results that never came, kits that weren't delivered even close to promptly, and having trouble getting help from customer service.

Below average for fertility testing

While we're absolutely here for fertility testing that's all done at home, we've got too many concerns about myLAB Box to give it anything more than a "below average” rating. (We're particularly spooked by the "video results” of the sperm testing!) You should look at myLAB Box's higher-ranking rivals first, because you can probably find everything you're hoping to accomplish with a different company that has a much better reputation.

More than a dozen fertility tests for men and women

There are 16 tests that Quest classifies as "Family Planning & Fertility” that are offered as direct, no-doctor's-visit-needed purchases through their website. Let's take a look:

As you can see, Quest covers a broad spectrum of fertility needs, going beyond what some rival sites offer to fully cover men's and women's testing across various ages.

Plenty of options for getting the blood draws

Also, Quest has a good mix of fertility tests that can be done at home or through a blood draw at one of their 6,000+ locations nationwide. One bonus feature offered by Quest is mobile collection. If the service is offered in your area, you can pay a $55 fee to have a phlebotomist come to you and take your blood sample.

Test purchase includes doctor consultation (if desired)

Regardless of the collection route you choose, your results will be available on your Quest patient portal within 5 business days of your samples being submitted to the lab. If your results are outside of the expected range, you may get an alert call from an independent healthcare coordinator through PWNHealth. A consultation is included in your fertility test purchase from Quest (even if your results are within range), but you're encouraged to also share your results with your own physician if you choose.

Shop around and look for sales

Pricing is competitive at Quest, and they often have promotions that bring the costs down. That includes fertility testing, especially during seasons like Mother's Day and Father's Day (a little on the nose, but we'll take it). You'll still want to shop around a bit, though: with some rivals on our list who use Quest as one of their partner facilities for the sample collection, we did find fertility testing at a lower cost.

No on-site reviews

All of that sounds pretty great, right? Are you now wondering why Quest's fertility testing winds up so low on our list? It's all about the reputation. First off, there's no function on Quest's site for clients to leave feedback. In a way, we kind of understand: it seems like it might violate some kind of HIPAA law or something similar if patients were leaving comments on the tests they purchased; and yet, rival sites often allow people to leave semi- or fully-anonymous feedback.

"F” from the BBB and other reputation woes

Those kinds of comments could have helped tip the scales back in Quest's favor: a boost this company needs, when you look at the "F” rating it receives from the Better Business Bureau. There's even an alert on the BBB site saying that clients should be aware of possible data leaks at Quest. Not good, folks. When you jump over to Trustpilot, the results aren't any better, with an average rating of just 1.6 stars out of 5. Complaints include difficulties reaching representatives when problems arise, results that are contradictory or inaccurate after further testing is done, and an overall experience that is stress-provoking.

Best as a last resort

Use Quest for your fertility testing if you must (if they're the only game in town as far as labs go, or you can't find the specific test you need with another provider). Just don't be shocked if it's not the most pleasant experience.

Labcorp on Demand

• 10 fertility-related tests for men and women
• Some tests can be done at home
• Some tests are done at a Labcorp location (2,000+ nationwide)
• Labs are CLIA-certified
• Can use HSA/FSA to pay for most tests

Labcorp on Demand offers convenient, at-home lab testing solutions from one of the leading names in diagnostic testing. With a wide range of tests available, including wellness, COVID-19, and fertility assessments, you can order tests online, collect samples at home or visit a local Labcorp location, and receive results through a secure online portal.

Just under a dozen fertility tests

There are 13 tests on Labcorp's Fertility & Sexual Health roster, 10 of which are relevant to our review:

• Women's Fertility Ovarian Reserve Test ($219): tests AMH, FSH, Estradiol
• Men's Rapid Fertility Test ($199) and refills ($99)
• Quantitative hCG Pregnancy Test ($49)
• Comprehensive Testosterone Test ($139)
• Estradiol (E2) Test ($69)
• Progesterone Test ($59)
• FSH Test ($59)
• Menopause Test ($139)
• Vitamin B12 and Folate ($89)
• Total Testosterone Test ($69)

Expensive no matter how you look at it

As you can see, there are options for both men and women with Labcorp on Demand. But, you may also see, when you compare the offerings here with rival providers on our list, that there's nothing truly comprehensive that incorporates multiple dimensions of fertility. You'll have to cobble together several tests to cover them, and that's going to get expensive fast. Also, these tests are often priced much lower on competitor sites, so in both ways you'll pay more for fertility testing at Labcorp. The one upside is that you can use your HSA/FSA to pay for most tests that Labcorp offers.

Some tests can be done at home

At home or in the lab? That will depend on the test. While you might think that Labcorp would require all sample collection to be done in their labs, a few options allow for discreet home testing too. You'll find all of those details on each fertility test when you click on it.

Can take up to 2 weeks to get results

We were surprised at how long it takes for Labcorp's test results to come back: evidently, it's the tests themselves that are "on demand”, and not so much for the timeframe for processing the samples. For example, the Ovarian Reserve test (AMH, FSH, Estradiol) tells you to expect results in 7-14 days from "when your sample arrives at the lab” (which is not the same as the day you visit Labcorp for the blood to be drawn). Those results can be viewed within your Labcorp Patient account; if there are any results that require a prompt response, you'll also get a phone call or notification via regular mail.

No physician consultation included

Either way, you'll want to follow up with your doctor. Labcorp on Demand doesn't include any kind of physician consultation on your fertility testing, taking their service down another notch when compared with some of the options we evaluated.

Reputation is poor, with lots of complaints

The final straw for us was Labcorp's reputation. There were more than 500 complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau over the last three years, and the way that Labcorp handled them was poor enough to earn a "C-” from the BBB. Plus, the clients that left ratings (and not just complaints) were equally unhappy, averaging just 1.3 stars out of 5. Most of the complaints we found were regarding billing, which likely doesn't apply to the on-demand fertility testing you're considering. Still, it's an indicator that you could be in for a hassle with Labcorp.

No good reason to buy fertility tests here

We struggle to find a compelling reason to choose Labcorp on Demand for fertility testing. They don't have as many types of tests as some of their rivals provide, they're more expensive for almost every single one that they do offer, and the results will probably take much longer to arrive.
