Menopause is a normal, natural event—defined as the final menstrual period and usually confirmed when a woman has missed her periods for 12 consecutive months (in the absence of other obvious causes). Menopause is associated with reduced functioning of the ovaries due to aging, resulting in lower levels of estrogen and other hormones.

 

At this time there is a change in the production of hormones such as estrogen. These are natural bodily changes in a female that can occur when you’re as young as 35, but typically begin in your late 40’s.

 Symptoms and Testing There are many symptoms to look for that may indicate your body is going through menopause. These signs can include hot flashes, rapid mood swings, decreased sex drive, urinary fluctuations, vaginal dryness, excessive bone loss and the increased risk of heart disease. There are a number of blood tests that your doctor will want to see to help determine if you are going through menopause.

Menopause Screening Panel Tests include
Follicular Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Indicates levels that determine if you’re approaching or have gone through menopause
Estradiol Estradiol Test measures the ovarian production of estrogen and shows if your menstrual cycle is normal
T4 and TSH Tests thyroid functions since this slows with age
Lipids Screens for cardiovascular disease
CBC (Complete Blood Count) Tests for blood disorders that include signs of leukemia, anemia, blood clotting as well as your ability to fight infections.
Chemistry Panel Evaluates blood sugar levels, liver and kidney function, renal function and electrolyte levels.

Menopause happens to every woman at some stage in her life.  To know for sure if you’re experiencing this natural bodily change, visit Miami Lab for a complete Menopause Screening Panel.
