PERIMENOPAUSE TEST

Home Health Testing®

A Perimenopause Test or more specifically an FSH Test can be an important tool to help a woman identify that her period changes are caused by "menopause". Menopause occurs when a woman's ovaries stop producing sufficient estrogen and progesterone. At this point ovulation can no longer occur and a woman is not able to conceive. A Perimenopause Test or more specifically an FSH Test can help to identify this important change.

Perimenopause (early menopause) typically occurs between the ages of 40 to 55, but can occasionally occur as early as 35 or as late as 60. Early menopause symptoms include irregular/heavy menstrual cycles, hot flashes, mood swings, insomnia and fatigue.

A substance called follicle stimulating hormone or FSH is produced in the pituitary gland and is necessary for reproduction. FSH is always present in the body, but the pituitary produces more of this hormone when the ovaries slow down the production of eggs.

High levels of FSH are associated with low estrogen levels, thus a positive FSH Level Test can help a woman identify that her period changes are caused by "menopause". Women have traditionally had their FSH levels monitored by a physician with a laboratory blood test.

The FDA approved CARE Menopause Home-Use FSH Test is a urine test that allows you to measure your FSH levels in the convenience and privacy of your home. The CARE Menopause Home-Use FSH Test was compared to laboratory blood tests to detect FSH levels and showed a 99% agreement.
