Quarterly Hormone Testing That Actually Helps
Unlike single-point testing that misses fluctuations, our quarterly panels track estradiol, progesterone, FSH, and thyroid over time to reveal patterns your doctor needs to see.
Connect Your Symptoms to Your Hormone Data
Track daily symptoms and see how they correlate with your actual hormone levels. No more guessing why you feel terrible when your doctor says your levels are 'normal.'
Menopause-Specialized Telemedicine Support
Consult with providers who understand perimenopause and can interpret your longitudinal hormone data to create personalized treatment plans, including HRT guidance.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I check hormones for perimenopause?
Hormone testing is most valuable when done consistently over time rather than as a one-time snapshot. We recommend quarterly testing starting when you notice irregular cycles or new symptoms like brain fog, mood changes, or sleep disruption.
What hormones are out of whack during perimenopause?
Estradiol and progesterone fluctuate wildly during perimenopause, while FSH rises as your ovaries work harder. Thyroid hormones can also shift, which is why our panel includes TSH, T3, and T4 alongside reproductive hormones.
How accurate is hormone testing for perimenopause?
Single hormone tests can be misleading because levels change dramatically throughout perimenopause. Our quarterly testing approach captures these fluctuations over time, providing a clearer picture than one-time testing.
What are signs of low estrogen in perimenopause?
Low estrogen can cause hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, brain fog, mood swings, and bone loss. However, estrogen levels fluctuate during perimenopause, so symptoms may come and go as levels rise and fall unpredictably.
Why won't my doctor check my hormone levels?
Many doctors rely on irregular periods as the main perimenopause indicator and may dismiss hormone testing as unreliable. Our platform provides the longitudinal data and clinical support to help you advocate for appropriate testing and treatment.
Is menopause hormone testing covered by insurance?
Insurance coverage for hormone testing varies widely and may require specific symptoms or diagnostic codes. We provide transparent cash pricing and can help you understand insurance options, including reimbursement strategies for out-of-network testing.
