Better understand and manage hormonal changes during menopause

Hormone screening can provide valuable insights into your hormone levels, allowing us to diagnose and manage menopause-related symptoms effectively. It helps us tailor treatment options specifically to your hormonal needs, leading to better symptom control and overall well-being.

Common symptoms that may indicate the need for hormone screening include hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, sleep disturbances, low libido, vaginal dryness, fatigue, weight changes, and changes in menstrual patterns. However, each individual is unique, and we will assess your specific symptoms and medical history to determine if hormone screening is appropriate for you.

We will provide you with specific instructions for preparation, such as fasting requirements or adjusting medication schedules if necessary. It’s important to follow these guidelines to ensure accurate and reliable test results.

Hormone tests typically involve a simple blood sample, which may cause minimal discomfort for a short duration. Our experienced and skilled healthcare professionals strive to make the process as comfortable as possible for you.

The timing of hormone screening depends on your symptoms and individual circumstances. We will work closely with you to determine the most appropriate timing for your specific situation.

We understand that timely results are important to you. In most cases, you can expect to receive your hormone test results within a few days to a week. Our team will keep you informed of the expected timeframe.

If your hormone levels are found to be abnormal, we will interpret the results in the context of your symptoms and medical history. We will then develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs, which may include hormone replacement therapy, lifestyle modifications, dietary changes, or other interventions to address hormonal imbalances and alleviate your menopause-related symptoms.

Insurance coverage for hormone screening may vary depending on your insurance provider and policy. Our dedicated team can assist you in understanding your insurance coverage and any potential out-of-pocket costs.

The frequency of hormone screening varies for each individual. We will assess your progress and treatment response, and then advise you on the appropriate timing for follow-up hormone testing. This ensures we are monitoring your hormone levels effectively and making any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
