Hormones play essential roles in regulating reproductive health and many physiological processes.
During menopause, these levels can fluctuate, leading to symptoms such as hot flushes, fatigue, or mood changes.
This section helps determine your menopausal status and guides hormone-balancing strategies.

Included Tests:

• FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) – Rises as ovarian function declines; used to confirm menopause onset.
• LH (Luteinising Hormone) – Works with FSH to regulate ovulation; levels increase post-menopause.
• Oestradiol (Oestrogen) – Declines during menopause, influencing bone density, mood, and temperature control.
• Progesterone – Balances oestrogen; low levels can cause irregular cycles and sleep disturbance.
• Prolactin – A hormone affecting reproductive and emotional wellbeing; imbalances can affect menstrual regularity.

Thyroid hormones are critical for regulating metabolism, energy production, and overall endocrine balance.
Many menopausal symptoms – such as fatigue or weight changes – can overlap with thyroid imbalances, making this test essential.

Included Tests:

• TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) – Indicates thyroid gland activity.
• FT4 (Free Thyroxine) – Reflects thyroid hormone output.
• FT3 (Free Triiodothyronine) – The active hormone influencing metabolism and energy.

The lipid profile assesses heart health and the risk of cardiovascular disease, which can increase after menopause as oestrogen levels drop.

Included Tests:

• Total Cholesterol – Measures overall blood cholesterol.
• LDL Cholesterol (Low-Density Lipoprotein) – The “bad” cholesterol linked to plaque buildup in arteries.
• HDL Cholesterol (High-Density Lipoprotein) – The “good” cholesterol that helps remove excess fats.
• Triglycerides – Blood fats that can rise with poor diet or hormone changes.

Iron is vital for energy, focus, and oxygen transport throughout the body.
Iron deficiency is common in women transitioning into menopause and can worsen tiredness and low mood.

Included Tests:

• Iron – Measures circulating iron in your blood.
• Ferritin – Indicates stored iron reserves.
• TIBC (Total Iron Binding Capacity) – Evaluates your blood’s capacity to carry iron.
• Transferrin Saturation – Determines how much iron is bound to its transport protein.

Vitamins are crucial for nerve function, mood, bone health, and immunity – all of which can be affected by menopause.

Included Tests:

• Vitamin B12 – Essential for red blood cell formation, brain function, and energy metabolism.
• Folate (Vitamin B9) – Supports DNA synthesis, mood balance, and overall vitality.
