Testing & Tracking

Track your cycle and symptoms alongside hormone labs to show your clinician the actual pattern.

Timing and relationships between markers matter more than single values.

Tracking hormones over time reveals perimenopause patterns that single blood tests cannot detect.

Testing on the right cycle day reveals what a single blood draw might miss.

Testing four hormones together reveals what one number alone cannot.

Wearables and blood tests measure different things; using both strategically matters most.

Wildly fluctuating FSH makes perimenopause hard to diagnose with a single blood test.

Repeated testing across your cycle reveals patterns that single snapshots cannot capture.
