Can I do Lucis while pregnant?

Updated on 4 November 2026

Pregnancy and Lucis Testing

No. We do not recommend performing Lucis tests during pregnancy.

Why testing is not recommended during pregnancy

  • Pregnancy involves significant natural hormonal changes;

  • These temporary changes strongly affect many hormonal biomarkers;

  • Results would therefore not be fully representative or reliably interpretable.

Our recommendation

  • Wait 4 to 6 months after childbirth before completing your Lucis check-up;

  • At that stage, biomarkers are more likely to have stabilised, allowing meaningful hormonal analysis.

Important to know

  • Always consult your doctor or midwife before scheduling any testing;

  • They can help determine the most appropriate timing for your individual situation.
