What it measures
- FSH
- LH
- General health markers
- Metabolic markers
A health check designed for women
The Well Woman Profile combines female hormones (FSH and LH) with general health and metabolic markers, giving you a joined-up view of your health in one appointment. It’s a good choice if you want a regular check-up, or if you’re noticing changes and aren’t sure where to start.
If your focus is fertility, our Fertility Package covers reproductive hormones, thyroid and androgens in more depth. If you’re in your 40s with changing periods, the Perimenopause Profile may suit you better.
Who it’s for
- A yearly women’s health check
- Tiredness, low mood or changes to your cycle
- Your 30s and 40s, as hormones begin to change
How to prepare
- Drink plenty of water beforehand; it makes the sample quicker and easier to take.
- You don’t need to fast.
- If you have periods, book for day 2–5 of your cycle (day 1 is the first day of bleeding).
- Stop biotin (vitamin B7) supplements 48 hours before, as biotin can affect hormone and thyroid results.
