newfoundland Health Screening Tests - Menopause At-Home Test
Menopause is the permanent cessation of menstruation but is usually not scientifically diagnosed until one full year after a woman’s menstrual periods have stopped.
The period leading up to menopause, and the 12 months following, is known as perimenopause.
Many women experience symptoms during this time including:
Hot flushes
Irregular menstrual cycles
Sleep disorders
Vaginal dryness
Hair loss
Anxiety
Mood swings
Short-term memory loss
Fatigue
The onset of perimenopause is caused by changes in the levels of hormones in the female body that regulate the menstrual cycle.

Therefore, testing for FSH can help determine whether a woman is in the perimenopause stage. If a woman knows she is perimenopausal, she can take the appropriate steps to keep her body healthy and avoid the health risks associated with menopause, which include:
Osteoporosis,
Increased blood pressure and cholesterol,
Increased risk of heart disease.
The Menopause Test (FSH rapid test midstream) is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in urine to aid in the detection of menopause.
For self-testing in vitro diagnostic use only. The test utilises a combination of antibodies including monoclonal anti-FSH antibodies to selectively detect elevated levels of FSH.
The test is conducted by urinating on or immersing the absorbent tip of test midstream in urine, and obtaining the result from the coloured lines. The test contains anti-FSH particles and anti-FSH coated on the membrane ... read more on product DAM Health page
