What can you learn from this test?
What can you learn from this test?
This test helps provide a view as to how hormonal changes during menopause can impact your future health. As oestrogen levels decline significantly during menopause, you face an elevated risk of conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and osteoporosis (brittle bones).
Additionally, our test assesses thyroid hormone levels to rule out thyroid conditions, which can share symptoms with menopause and become more prevalent as you age. Other tests are long term sugar marker (Hba1c) for diabetes and Vitamin D levels for your bones.

What are we testing?
Cholesterol
Why test it?
Cholesterol is a type of fat in your bloodstream. It plays vital roles such as supporting cell function and producing vitamin D, bile acid, and hormones like testosterone and oestrogen. However, an excess of cholesterol can be harmful and increase the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
High cholesterol is linked to lifestyle factors such as a diet high in fatty foods and insufficient physical activity.
What it affects
Long term health, Fitness
Thyroid
Why test it?
Your thyroid is a small gland in your neck. It produces hormones that help control your metabolism and how your body consumes its energy.
An underactive thyroid doesn’t make enough of your thyroid hormones - this is called hypothyroidism. If you make too much of the thyroid hormone it is called an overactive thyroid or hyperthyroidism.
Symptoms can range from tiredness, weight gain or loss, to mood problems.
What it affects
Energy, Weight , Mood, Long term health
Diabetes (Blood Sugar)
Why test it?
The HbA1c test reveals your average blood sugar levels over the past few months. Unlike a standard blood sugar test, this test isn't influenced by short-term changes, like a recent sugary snack.
A good result indicates effective blood sugar control, even if you've occasionally had high blood sugar levels.
If your result is high, it may suggest you have pre-diabetes or diabetes.
What it affects
Energy, Weight, Long-term health, Sleep
Vitamins & Minerals
Why test it?
Identifying a vitamin deficiency can provide insights into potential causes of frequent illnesses, low energy levels, irritability, and anxiety. Optimising the levels of your vitamins and minerals is an important way of ensuring that you feel at your best.
What it affects
