FSH (Menopause) Blood Test
Are you experiencing changes in your menstrual cycle, hot flushes, or other symptoms that could suggest menopause? The FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) blood test at Perfect Skin Solutions provides a simple way to check hormone levels linked to menopause, using venous draw with results sent to you within 15 minutes.
What is an FSH Blood Test?
FSH is a hormone released by the pituitary gland that helps regulate the menstrual cycle and stimulates the ovaries. During menopause, as ovarian function declines, FSH levels typically rise. Measuring FSH in your blood can give helpful insight into whether you may be entering or are in menopause.
What does the test involve?
-
A quick and minimally invasive venous blood draw blood test .
-
No special preparation is usually needed.
-
Results are provided within 15 minutes for timely understanding.
-
Your small blood sample is tested to measure FSH hormone levels.
Why is the Test Important?
FSH testing can help:
-
Determine if hormonal changes are consistent with menopause or perimenopause.
-
Indicate premature ovarian insufficiency (early menopause).
-
Assess fertility issues related to ovarian function.
-
Support understanding of symptoms such as irregular periods, hot flushes, or mood changes.
It is important to note that in women over 45 with typical menopause symptoms, diagnosis is often clinical, and FSH testing is not always necessary but more of an insight. However, FSH testing can be useful in younger women or if symptoms are unclear.
