estradiol, Luteinizing hormone, and follicle stimulating hormone. there are some others, but i am not sure - those are the main levels.

ohhh - i know the FSH relates to your egg quality/ovarian reserve. Mine was a little high, so it gave my doctor an indication that i might need more meds when i stim to produce enough eggs. the LH should be a 1:1 ratio to your FSH (or around that ratio). if it is higher or lower, i think it could indicate PCOS. And your estradiol levels are also important if its too high or too low it could indicate other issues as well.
my first sono was just to check to see how everything looked and to check for cysts.
the is only my first cycle and i jumped right to IVF since i am doing IVF for PGD so the other ladies on this board might be able to help you a little bit more!
but this website is a great site for those CD3 blood work levels:
