The comprehensive Female Hormone Health blood test is designed to provide essential insights into your hormonal levels, and overall health, which are especially relevant during perimenopause and menopause.

Why Get Tested?

Menopause marks a significant stage in a woman’s life, triggered by the natural decline in ovarian function as she ages. This transition is characterized by a decrease in estrogen levels, which can elevate the risk of various health conditions, including heart disease, diabetes, and osteoporosis. As estrogen declines, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels rise, influencing the menstrual cycle and reproductive function. Elevated FSH levels, coupled with the absence of menstrual periods for a year or more, are typical indicators of menopause.

The symptoms experienced during menopause are often attributed to hormonal fluctuations. However, similar symptoms can manifest due to conditions unrelated to menopause. Therefore, our Menopause Health Check not only examines hormone levels but also includes a comprehensive range of tests to evaluate overall health. These tests encompass assessments for iron, vitamin B12, and thyroid function, crucial for managing energy levels and mood. Additionally, evaluations for vitamin D and calcium levels are conducted to safeguard bone strength, along with screenings for heart disease risk factors, which may escalate with declining estrogen levels.

This comprehensive approach to testing offers valuable insights into health during the menopausal transition. However, individuals experiencing symptoms of menopause or uncertain about their menopausal stage are encouraged to consult with a healthcare professional. Open discussions with a doctor can address concerns, provide personalized guidance, and ensure optimal management of menopausal health.
