Menopause Test - SELFCheck

Product description

The menopause can be a difficult time for many women, so it can be reassuring to gain clarity on what is happening within your body. This menopause home test kit offers a simple and effective way to measure hormone levels in the body and assess whether or not you have passed through the menopausal transition. The Science Behind the Test The onset of the menopause can lead to a wide variety of biological changes, not to mention potential symptoms. However, one of the most reliable indicators of menopausal change involves a hormone known as Follicle Stimulating Hormone or FSH. This hormone plays a central role in the operation of the ovaries, and as a result FSH levels can be far higher after the menopause than before. Using a simple urine test, this menopause home test kit measures levels of FSH in the body, providing a straightforward colour-coded result. Results from the Comfort of Your Own Home It's not always easy to discuss the menopause, especially if you're unlucky enough to experience it at a younger age than many other women. The benefit of a home testing kit like this one is being able to use it from the comfort and privacy of your own home, and to get clear results within just 10 minutes. This menopause home test kit may be used at any time of day, but it is recommended that an early morning sample is used. Depending on the result, you may then consider seeking further support from a trusted medical professional, who should be able to offer guidance on minimising any unpleasant menopause symptoms. Pleasantly, once used, the kit can be safely and legally disposed of in your normal household waste permitting additional discretion.
