Testing in Perimenopause and Menopause

About this course

Sadly it is not cheap to test to see if you are heading into perimenopause and the GP's only offer a blood test which doesn't tell you much.

This means you will likely have to go privately for precise testing. Symptom trackers are a great way to start to build a picture in the mean time by tracking your cycle and symptoms around the different phases. You should really start to see a pattern which will help when you go to see your hormone specialist.

If you are thinking of getting some testing done Dr Tanya has created this handout to gain a better undertsanding of which might be best for you.
