Testing / Complete Hormone Panel

Perimenopause · HRT · Cycle Optimization

Your hormone picture. Not a reference range. Yours.

Standard female hormone panels measure FSH and call it done. This panel maps the full hormonal axis — including DHEA-S, free testosterone, and thyroid — giving your physician the complete picture for perimenopause management, HRT optimization, or cycle-based health protocols.

Why it matters

Three reasons this panel changes the conversation.

01

Progesterone drops first — standard panels miss it

Oestrogen levels can remain in range for years while progesterone declines — producing classic perimenopausal symptoms (disrupted sleep, anxiety, cycle changes) with 'normal' bloodwork. This panel measures progesterone alongside the full axis, so the early hormonal shift is visible.

02

Free testosterone matters more than total for women

Women convert DHEA-S to testosterone via the adrenals and ovaries. As both decline with age, free testosterone falls faster than total — and free T is what drives energy, libido, and lean mass. Without free T and DHEA-S, the androgen picture is incomplete.

03

Thyroid disease peaks in perimenopausal women — rule it out first

Hashimoto's thyroiditis and hypothyroidism are 5–10× more common in women and peak in the perimenopausal transition. TSH, free T3, and free T4 must be evaluated before attributing symptoms to oestrogen deficiency — the presentations are clinically indistinguishable.

What's Included

Complete Hormone Panel$249

Estradiol (E2)The primary female sex hormone — the most important marker in perimenopause and HRT monitoring
FSHFSH above 25 mIU/mL signals declining ovarian reserve — the key perimenopause indicator
LHLH surge and ratio to FSH identifies cycle phase and ovarian response
ProgesteroneLow progesterone is the earliest perimenopausal change — often missed on standard panels
Total TestosteroneFemale testosterone decline begins in the 30s and drives fatigue, low libido, and muscle loss
Free Testosterone (calc)Bioavailable testosterone — more clinically relevant than total for symptom correlation
SHBGHigh SHBG binds free testosterone and estradiol — frequently elevated on oral oestrogen HRT
DHEA-SAdrenal androgen precursor — the upstream source of female testosterone production
hs-TSHThyroid disease peaks in perimenopausal women — hypothyroidism mimics every hormonal symptom
AlbuminNutritional status and drug-binding capacity
hs-CRPInflammatory baseline — oestrogen deficiency drives systemic inflammation

Common questions

Everything you should know before ordering.

When in my cycle should I test?

For cycle-tracking purposes, Day 3 (early follicular) is standard for FSH, LH, and estradiol baselines. Progesterone is most accurately measured on Day 21 (mid-luteal). If you are perimenopausal or postmenopausal and no longer cycling regularly, any time is appropriate — your physician will interpret in context.

I'm already on HRT — should I still test?

Yes. HRT monitoring requires the same markers — estradiol confirms you're achieving therapeutic levels, SHBG tells you whether oral vs transdermal route is correct, and free testosterone shows whether androgen supplementation is warranted. Your physician may adjust dose and delivery method based on your results.

Is this panel HSA/FSA eligible?

Yes. Physician-ordered diagnostic testing is HSA and FSA eligible. At a 32% bracket, effective cost is approximately $170.
