Explore your hormone health
This at-home test will measure the level of key hormones in your blood associated with your menstrual cycle, and provide you with recommendations on how to manage your results.
Why test
This test will assess the levels of your key hormones associated with changes in the menstrual cycle and will help determine whether you are entering, or have already entered, the first stages of menopause.
Menopause affects everyone differently, but it can be an extremely challenging period in a woman's life. As well as the physical symptoms, such as hot flushes, irregular periods, itchy skin and hair loss, it can also affect your emotional well being, often leading to anxiety, irritability, forgetfulness and low mood.
By identifying hormonal changes that are associated with the menopause, this test could be your first step towards taking control and finding the best ways to manage the symptoms you are experiencing. For some this may be in the form of lifestyle changes, whilst others may want to discuss with their own doctor whether medical treatment such as hormone replacement therapy (HRT) would be suitable.
This test could be your first step towards taking control and finding the best way to navigate the challenges of menopause.
