About this test

This essential female hormone test provides a simple but valuable overview of key hormones that regulate the menstrual cycle, ovulation, and reproductive health.

By measuring oestradiol, progesterone, and prolactin, it can help identify hormonal imbalances, support fertility understanding, and provide useful insight into perimenopause and menopause status.

It’s an ideal starting point for those experiencing cycle changes, symptoms such as irregular periods or low mood, or those wanting to better understand their hormonal health.
