Menopause Blood Test
Understand your hormonal changes with a professionally administered menopause blood test. This quick appointment helps identify menopause-related shifts and supports your long-term wellbeing.
What is a Menopause Blood Test?
A menopause blood test measures key hormone levels in your body to help understand changes linked to menopause. It looks at hormones such as oestrogen, progesterone, and follicle-stimulating hormone, which influence symptoms like hot flushes, irregular periods, and changes in mood. By assessing these levels, the test provides insight into your hormonal balance and overall health. Performed by a professional, it offers reliable results that can guide your next steps in managing wellbeing during this stage of life.
Who Should Take a Menopause Blood Test?
A menopause blood test helps you understand how your hormone levels are changing and how these changes may affect your health. It provides clear insights for managing symptoms, supporting bone and heart health, and guiding decisions about lifestyle or hormone therapy.
This test is especially helpful if you are:
- Experiencing irregular periods or noticing their absence.
- Having hot flushes, night sweats, or sleep disturbances.
- Feeling mood changes, anxiety, or low energy.
- On or considering HRT and want to monitor hormone levels for effectiveness and safety.

Understanding Your Menopause Blood Test Results
After your menopause blood test, your results will show whether your hormone levels fall within the standard range for your age and stage of life. If a biomarker is higher or lower than standard, it can indicate:
- Oestradiol: low levels may be linked to hot flushes and bone changes; high levels may suggest hormone imbalance.
- Progesterone: low levels can affect mood and sleep; high levels are less common but may indicate other hormonal shifts.
- FSH: higher levels suggest reduced ovarian function; lower levels may indicate atypical hormonal activity.
- Testosterone: high or low levels can affect energy, libido, and wellbeing.
- Calcium and Vitamin D: low levels may impact bone health and risk of osteoporosis.
