What Is Included?
This profile provides a comprehensive evaluation of reproductive hormones and thyroid activity to accurately map your menopausal transition.
Ovarian Hormone Production
Measures the primary female sex hormone produced by the ovaries to evaluate reproductive function and menopausal status.
Estradiol decreases significantly during menopause, leading to common symptoms like hot flashes and vaginal dryness.
Pituitary Gonadotropins
Evaluates the hormones produced by the brain that stimulate ovarian function, serving as critical markers for the onset of menopause.
Both FSH and LH levels typically rise significantly in response to declining ovarian function and lower estradiol levels.
Thyroid Function
Assesses the thyroid gland’s activity to ensure metabolic health is not causing overlapping symptoms.
Helps accurately identify or rule out underlying thyroid conditions (hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism) that can closely mimic menopause.
Understanding Menopause and Hormonal Shifts
During the menopausal transition, the ovaries gradually decrease their production of Estradiol (E2). In response, the brain releases higher levels of FSH and LH to try and stimulate the ovaries. Testing these specific hormones together provides a definitive view of menopausal status. Additionally, because symptoms like fatigue, weight changes, mood swings, and temperature dysregulation overlap heavily with thyroid issues, TSH is included to ensure a comprehensive and accurate evaluation.
How To Read Your Laboratory Results
Your results will list your values alongside standard reference ranges designed for different lifecycle stages. If a result indicates menopausal transition, it is noted for review. Important: A single out-of-range value does not automatically indicate a medical problem. Results must be assessed in conjunction with your specific symptoms and medical history.
Results Timeline: Profile metrics are typically available within just 4 hours. Once your results are ready, they will be securely shared with you.
