Hormonal levels begin to change in women during menopause usually in late 40s and early 50s. Menopause is a natural process that occurs when the ovaries stop egg production, marking the end of fertility in women. Before reaching menopause, every woman may experience perimenopause in which the menstrual cycle changes gradually before it stops completely. Menopause can occasionally occur early.

Menopause profile results

Menopause profile results

Private menopause profile test assesses the following hormones:

  • Testosterone
  • Progesterone
  • Oestrogen

After you receive the result, contact your gynaecologist for a consultation on what to do next!

  • FSH test- Follicle-stimulating hormone is responsible for production of eggs by the ovaries and controlling menstrual cycle. It fluctuates during the period and remains highest just before ovulation.
  • Oestrogen blood test- This female sex hormone is important to control development and regulation of secondary sexual characteristics along with female reproductive systems.
  • Testosterone test- Ovaries and other adrenal glands secrete little amount of testosterone and the level will drop down at the time of menopause. Higher levels can cause several conditions like PCOS and cancer.
  • LH test- It has an integral role to play for menstrual cycle as it sends the signal to brain that tells the ovary to release the egg every month. So, the level remains highest just before ovulation.
