What we test
Oestrogen
Ovarian health, menopause symptoms, menopausal status, mood, bone health, heart health, fatigue, hot flushes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, itchy skin, urinary tract infections
The main source of E2 is your ovaries. As menopause is the result of your ovaries no longer working, E2 levels fluctuate then drop to very low levels as you progress from one stage of menopause to the next. E2 has a big impact on your overall health and an imbalance can lead to symptoms like dry skin and hair, vaginal dryness and hot flushes as well as a higher risk of heart disease, bone fractures and mood and mental health problems.

Tests for
Ovarian health, menopause symptoms, menopausal status
why?
FSH (and LH) are hormones which participate in the feedback loop to increase and decrease estradiol production. As the ovaries make very little estradiol during menopause, this causes the brain to increase its production of FSH and LH in an attempt to boost estradiol levels, which is why FSH levels tend to fluctuate or are very high around the time of menopause. Monitoring FSH is therefore useful for pinpointing the cause of your symptoms and which stage of menopause you may be at.

FSH (and LH) are hormones which participate in the feedback loop to increase and decrease estradiol production. As the ovaries make very little estradiol during menopause, this causes the brain to increase its production of FSH and LH in an attempt to boost estradiol levels. LH levels therefore tend to be high during and after menopause has taken place. Monitoring LH (in addition to estradiol and FSH) contributes to understanding an overall picture of your ovarian health, including why you are experiencing symptoms and which stage of menopause you may be at.
Tests for
Thyroid function, skin, hair, weight, mood, fatigue, heart health
why?
Thyroid-stimulating hormone allows you to check if your thyroid is over- or underactive. TSH is produced by your brain and tells your thyroid how much thyroid hormones to produce, controlling your metabolism, mood and heart health to name a few. Having an underactive thyroid is more common in people with menopause and can cause symptoms such as weight gain, feeling bloated and fatigue.
Tests for
Thyroid function, skin, hair, weight, mood, fatigue, heart health
why?
Thyroxine is produced in response to thyroid-stimulating hormone and indicates how active your thyroid is. Too little thyroid hormones (known as hypothyroidism) means your body’s metabolism is slower, affecting other parts of your body such as mood and heart. Having an underactive thyroid is more common in people with menopause and can exacerbate symptoms such as weight gain, feeling bloated and fatigue.
Tests for
Skin, hair, muscle growth, mood, fatigue, libido
why?
One of the sources of testosterone is the ovaries, which means that women who have undergone menopause tend to have lower levels of testosterone. This can result in fatigue, low mood and low libido.
Tests for
Skin, hair, muscle growth, mood, fatigue
why?
Women with menopause have high levels of SHBG. High levels of SHBG can result in lower levels of testosterone and estrogen, which can then result in symptoms such as oily skin, excessive body and facial hair and hair thinning.
Tests for
Metabolism, type-2 diabetes risk
why?
Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) is a form of haemoglobin (in your red blood cells) that is attached to sugar. HbA1c is therefore a useful marker of your average blood sugar levels from the past few months. If it is too high, it can be a sign of prediabetes or diabetes, which is more common in those who have gone through menopause.
Tests for
Metabolism, heart health, hypertension
why?
A lipid profile measures the cholesterol and triglycerides in your blood. It therefore provides an overall picture of the lipids in your blood. Your lipid profile provides a useful indicator of your risk of cardiovascular disease, which is more common in people with menopause. An abnormal lipid profile (known as dyslipidemia) is also associated with hypertension, which people with menopause are more at risk of.
Tests for
Type-2 diabetes risk
why?
Vitamin D is necessary for regulating how much calcium is used by your body and therefore plays a crucial role in keeping your bones and teeth healthy. Having low vitamin D levels can make you more likely to have bone fractures, poor dental health and a low mood. You are more susceptible to a vitamin D deficiency if you don’t get much sunlight, have darker skin, and are older or have gone through menopause.
