Menopause (FSH) 2 Tests

About this test

Key Benefits

Get quick insight into your hormonal status with a simple at-home test.

• Fast and Convenient: Easy urine test with results in minutes.

• Early Indication: Helps identify signs of perimenopause and menopause.

• Simple to Use: No lab visit required.

• Reliable Screening: Detects elevated FSH levels linked to hormonal changes.

What This Test Measures

This test measures Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) in urine.

Elevated FSH levels (above 25 mIU/ml) may indicate that you are in perimenopause or menopause. The test provides a positive or negative result, not an exact hormone value.

Common Symptoms of Perimenopause

Hormonal changes may be associated with symptoms such as:

• Mood swings

• Hot flashes and sweating

• Sleep disturbances

• Fatigue

• Irregular menstrual cycles

• Vaginal dryness

• Increased urination

• Difficulty concentrating or memory changes

How It Works

• Order Your Kit: Purchase your test online.

• Collect Your Sample: Use a urine sample at home.

• Read Results: Results appear within a few minutes.

Urine Sample Collection

The test is performed using a urine sample. For best accuracy, it is recommended to use first morning urine, as it contains the highest concentration of hormones.

Understanding Test Accuracy

The test is clinically evaluated and shows high agreement with other commercial menopause tests. However, results should be interpreted alongside symptoms, and further testing may be considered if needed.

Biomarkers included

• FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone): Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is produced by the pituitary gland and plays an important role in reproductive function in both women and men. In women, FSH helps stimulate the growth and maturation of ovarian follicles and varies across the menstrual cycle. In men, FSH supports sperm production through its action on Sertoli cells in the testes. Measuring FSH can help assess fertility and ovari

How to prepare

Use first-morning urine for the most concentrated sample. Avoid excessive fluid intake before testing to prevent dilution of FSH levels. - If you still menstruate, test during the first week of your cycle - Use the second test after one week for more reliable results

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to perform the test?

The best time to test depends on your cycle. If you still have regular periods, the first test should be taken during the first week of your cycle (days 2-7). The second test should be taken one week later. If your periods are irregular or have stopped, you can take the first test at any time and the second test one week later.

What does a positive result mean?

A positive result indicates that your FSH levels are elevated (at or above 25 mIU/mL), which is a common sign of perimenopause or menopause. Because FSH levels can fluctuate, we recommend using both tests in the pack to confirm the trend. If both are positive, you should consult your doctor to discuss your symptoms and health plan.

Can birth control or medication affect my results?

Certain medications, including hormonal contraceptives (the pill, patches, implants), hormone replacement therapy (HRT), or medications containing estrogen or FSH, can affect the test results. It is generally recommended to wait until these medications are out of your system before testing, or consult your physician for guidance.

Is this test a definitive diagnosis for menopause?

While this test accurately measures FSH levels, menopause is clinically defined as the state of having no menstrual period for 12 consecutive months. This test is a diagnostic tool to help identify the transition (perimenopause) and should be used in conjunction with a review of your physical symptoms.
