A prolactin test measures the amount of the hormone prolactin in your blood. High prolactin levels inhibit secretion of FSH. Therefore, if your prolactin levels are high, your ovulation may be suppressed. This is why women who are breastfeeding (and thus have high levels of prolactin) usually donât become pregnant.
A testosterone test is done to: 1  See why a man is having problems in fathering a child (infertility). 2  A low amount of testosterone can lead to low sperm counts. 3  Check a man's sexual problems. 4  Having a low level of testosterone may lower a man's sex drive or not allow him to have an erection (erectile dysfunction).his hormone tells the testicles to make more testosterone. Before puberty, the testosterone level in boys is normally low. Testosterone increases during puberty. This causes boys to develop a deeper voice, get bigger muscles, make sperm, and get facial and body hair.
