Thyroid issues are often common in women, but males can also be affected. Thyroid disorders often go misdiagnosed or not treated. An underactive thyroid, where your thyroid gland does not produce enough hormones is associated with the following symptoms; tiredness, weight gain, depression, hair loss and sensitivity to cold temperatures. An overactive thyroid on the other hand, a condition where the thyroid produces too many hormones can cause weight loss, anxiety, mood swings, difficulty sleeping, sensitivity to heat, muscle weakness, itchiness and a frequent need to urinate.

PCOS is a common condition where small fluid-filled follicles appear on the ovaries and affects around 1 in 10 women. Each follicle contains an immature egg that does not develop enough to trigger ovulation causing low progesterone levels and abnormally high levels of androgens like testosterone.

Symptoms of PCOS include irregular periods, fertility issues, excess hair, weight gain and oily skin. Symptoms may differ depending on the individual as such its important to monitor your hormone levels.

What do the results mean?

If you suspect you might have PCOS, a simple blood test at MediLab will help to give you a better understanding of your hormone levels. We measure over 40 data points including fertility hormones, androgen levels (testosterone) and more to help give you the answers you need. AMH (ovarian reserve) is also included, AMH levels are often found to be higher in females with PCOS due to the excess number of immature follicles in the ovaries.

It is recommended to take the test two to five days after the start of your period, ideally on day three. It can be taken any time if you do not have periods. It is important to note that some types of hormonal contraceptive will affect your results.

During menopause, a lot of changes happen to the female body. Our simple blood test can provide you with numerous key data points for your health on your hormone levels and these are impacting you.

What do the results mean?

Menopause is triggered by a decline in oestrogen and progesterone. When oestrogen levels reach a new low it can increase the risk of conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and osteoporosis. The menopause blood test will help you to better understand the impact of menopause on your heart, thyroid, nutrition, and bone health. A drop in oestrogen levels will trigger FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) levels to rise. Raised FSH levels combined with missed periods is a strong indicator that you are perimenopausal or menopausal.

Prior to menopause most women will experience perimenopause – when periods become irregular. This normally happens between the ages of 45-55. If you experience symptoms before the age of 45 a blood test could help to rule out other conditions that cause similar symptoms to menopause like thyroid disorders.

Why get tested?

Anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) is produced in the ovarian follicles and is used to reflect ovarian reserve (the remaining number of follicles within the ovaries capable of producing an egg).

The AMH blood test will indicate if your levels are normal for your age and is useful if considering fertility treatment such as egg freezing or IVF. The World Health Organisation states infertility affects 1 in 6 people globally, with 17.5% of adults across the world affected by the inability to have a child. Both high and low levels of AMH can impact on fertility. Measurement of AMH cannot determine how many viable eggs a female has remaining or predict a female’s chances of pregnancy.

What do the results mean?

Typically, AMH levels peak when a woman reaches her mid-twenties and then decline with age, becoming undetectable post-menopause. A low AMH indicates diminished ovarian reserve and a higher AMH level indicates greater ovarian reserve; however, high levels can also occur in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

It is important to note that some types of contraceptive pill may affect your results. If you stop taking the pill, we suggest waiting until your periods have resumed their normal cycle before taking this test. Make sure that you take an alternative form of contraception if you are not planning to become pregnant.

It is important to note that the AMH blood test will not tell you how many viable eggs you have remaining, and it does not predict your likelihood of becoming pregnant. Your AMH result indicates if your AMH level is normal for your age.

Tumor marker tests measure specific substances in your blood that may indicate the presence or growth of cancer. These tests are often recommended if you have a family history of cancer, unexplained symptoms, or are undergoing treatment. Early testing helps in timely detection, monitoring therapy effectiveness, and supporting better treatment outcomes for long-term health.

What do the results mean?

Results from tumor marker tests provide valuable insights into your health. Elevated levels may indicate cancer, but they can also rise due to non-cancerous conditions. Normal levels don’t always rule out disease, so results are interpreted alongside other medical findings.
