Understanding the Menopause Blood Test

This Menopause blood test is ideal for anybody experiencing symptoms of menopause including hot flushes, night sweats, memory loss, mood swings and erratic menstrual periods.

Find out whether you are experiencing the menopause, perimenopause or whether your symptoms may be a sign of something else, such as a thyroid condition, with a quick and simple blood test.

What is a Menopause Blood Test?

A Menopause Blood Test is a specialized examination that measures hormone levels in women going through menopause. This test can assess hormones like estrogen and progesterone, which play crucial roles in regulating the menstrual cycle and overall reproductive health. By analyzing these hormone levels, healthcare providers can better understand a woman's transition into menopause and provide tailored treatment options. Therefore, a blood test can help pinpoint specific hormone imbalances related to symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, and mood changes.

Why is it Important?

Understanding your hormone levels is key to effectively managing menopause symptoms. Many women experience anxiety, sleep disturbances, and physical symptoms during this phase, but a Menopause Blood Test can be very informative. It helps identify hormonal fluctuations that contribute to these challenges. Because menopause affects women differently, this personalized information allows healthcare providers to create targeted strategies for relief, including hormone replacement therapy or lifestyle changes that can improve overall well-being.

What to Expect During the Test?

Getting a Menopause Blood Test is straightforward and typically involves a simple blood draw at home or in clinic. Most women find the process quick and invasive. After the blood is collected, it is sent to a laboratory for analysis. Results usually come back within a 10 working days.

More Information

Our Menopause blood test will give you the answers you need about your health and whether you may be starting the menopause.

Going through the menopause can be a really challenging time, with big changes in your hormone levels typically taking place in your 40s or 50s.

Symptoms can have significant physical, mental and emotional side effects, with women commonly experiencing mood swings, hot flushes and faintness, fatigue, disturbed sleep, weight gain and anxiety or depression.

Some women can experience menopause earlier than normal, and even for those who are expecting it in the next few years, symptoms can start much earlier – this is called the menopause transition or perimenopause.

Our menopause blood test will check your level of hormones to identify any changes and highlight whether you may be experiencing menopause.

We also include checks for your thyroid health and function, because some menopause symptoms can actually be caused by thyroid problems instead. It’s not uncommon for thyroid dysfunction to start in your 40’s or 50’s – so we will help you understand whether you are experiencing the menopause, thyroid problems, both, or neither!

 

Please note:

Please take your sample in the morning. Do not take biotin supplements for 2 days prior to this test. If you are taking prescribed biotin you should discuss this with your doctor.

It’s important to note that all female hormone cycles are different and fluctuate significantly at different times, so there is a chance that your results show normal hormone levels even if you are experiencing the menopause. If that is the case and you are still experiencing symptoms we recommend taking another test in 4-6 weeks to check your levels again.

The Oestradiol marker is only available in the in-clinic test. If you choose a home test kit, Oestradiol cannot be included.

You must be over 18 years old to use this test.
