Description
The Menopause Check Plus Profile is a comprehensive salivary hormone test designed to evaluate core hormonal changes during menopause, including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and adrenal markers.
This test provides a balanced functional overview, offering more insight than basic hormone testing while remaining focused on key menopausal hormones.
👉 As shown in the report, this panel includes estrogens, progesterone, testosterone, and DHEA, helping assess hormonal balance and adrenal contribution
🔬 What This Test Measures
1. Estrogens
- Estradiol (E2)
- Estrone (E1)
- Estriol (E3)
2. Progesterone
- Salivary progesterone
3. Androgens
- Testosterone
4. Adrenal Marker
- DHEA
👉 Reflects adrenal contribution to hormonal balance
🧠 Clinical Insights
- Evaluates hormonal imbalance in menopause
- Assesses androgen and adrenal contribution
- Helps guide hormone therapy decisions
👤 Who Should Consider This Test
- Menopausal women with moderate symptoms
- Fatigue, low energy, or hormonal imbalance
- Monitoring hormone therapy
⚠️ Limitations
- ❌ No cortisol rhythm analysis
- ❌ No melatonin or sleep assessment
- ❌ No hormone metabolism analysis
🔷 Key Clinical Insight
👉 This test answers:
“What is my core hormone balance during menopause?”
🔷 Final Summary
Menopause Check Plus provides a focused yet functional assessment of menopause-related hormones, making it ideal for intermediate-level evaluation.
FINAL NOTE
| Test | Level |
|---|---|
| Menopause | Basic |
| Menopause Check Plus | Intermediate |
| Menopause Plus | Advanced |
Which Menopause Test Should You Choose?
Choosing the right menopause test depends on how deep you want to investigate your hormonal health—whether you need a basic level check or a comprehensive functional analysis.
👉 Start with Menopause (Basic) if:
- First-time hormone testing
- Mild symptoms (hot flashes, irregular cycles)
- Want a simple baseline
👉 Answers:
“What are my hormone levels?”
👉 Choose Menopause Check Plus if:
- Moderate symptoms (fatigue, mood swings, weight changes)
- Need adrenal insight (DHEA included)
- Monitoring hormone therapy
👉 Answers:
“Are my hormones and adrenal function balanced?”
👉 Choose Menopause Plus if:
- Sleep issues (insomnia, poor sleep quality)
- Chronic stress or burnout
- Complex menopausal symptoms
👉 Answers:
“How are my hormones, sleep, and stress interacting?”
👉 Choose DUTCH Test if:
- Symptoms are complex or unresolved
- Previous tests were inconclusive
- Need deep root-cause analysis
👉 Answers:
“How are my hormones produced, metabolized, and functioning at a systems level?”
🔷 Key Difference (Very Important)
- Genova Tests → Hormone levels & functional balance
- DUTCH Test → Hormone metabolism + pathways + deep endocrinology
👉 DUTCH shows how hormones behave inside the body, not just levels
🔥 Final Recommendation
👉 If unsure:
Start with Menopause Check Plus or Menopause Plus
👉 If symptoms persist or are complex:
Move to DUTCH for advanced functional analysis
