## What does the Menopause Assessment Panel cover?

Measures FSH, LH, estradiol, progesterone, total testosterone, SHBG, TSH, and vitamin D — a comprehensive menopause assessment covering ovarian and androgen status, thyroid, and vitamin D.

The Menopause Assessment Panel helps women evaluate whether symptoms like hot flashes, mood changes, irregular periods, and sleep disruption are related to perimenopause or menopause. Elevated FSH and LH with declining estradiol confirm the menopausal transition, while TSH rules out thyroid dysfunction, which can mimic menopause symptoms. Progesterone reflects ovarian function and cycle status, while total testosterone with SHBG reveals bioavailable androgen levels — low testosterone in midlife women contributes to fatigue, low libido, and reduced muscle mass. Vitamin D is included because it is commonly low in midlife women and important for bone health as estrogen declines.

**Clinical use:** FSH, LH, Estradiol, TSH. The standard hormone workup to confirm menopause/perimenopause and rule out thyroid as a contributing cause of symptoms.

## Who should order it?

Women 40+ experiencing irregular periods, hot flashes, sleep disruption, mood changes, or other classic perimenopause/menopause symptoms. Women considering HRT who want baseline hormones before starting.

## Common questions about the Menopause Assessment Panel

### What's included in the Menopause Panel?

Four tests: [FSH](https://www.test-well.com/tests/fsh) (elevated when ovaries decline), [LH](https://www.test-well.com/tests/luteinizing-hormone) (rises alongside FSH), [Estradiol](https://www.test-well.com/tests/estradiol) (the primary estrogen — drops in menopause), and [TSH](https://www.test-well.com/tests/tsh) (rules out thyroid as the cause of overlapping symptoms). The standard initial menopause/perimenopause workup.

### Can I confirm menopause with one blood draw?

Persistently elevated [FSH](https://www.test-well.com/tests/fsh) (>25 mIU/mL) with low [Estradiol](https://www.test-well.com/tests/estradiol) on multiple draws supports menopause — but a single draw can be misleading during perimenopause when hormones fluctuate dramatically week to week. Definitive diagnosis usually requires 12 months without a period plus clinical symptoms; labs are supportive but not definitive.

### Why include TSH in a menopause panel?

Many 'menopause symptoms' (fatigue, weight changes, brain fog, mood shifts, sleep disruption) overlap heavily with hypothyroidism. Ruling out [TSH](https://www.test-well.com/tests/tsh) abnormalities first prevents misattributing treatable thyroid disease to menopause and missing the simpler diagnosis.

### How is this different from the Women's Hormone Panel?

Menopause Panel is focused (4 tests: FSH, LH, Estradiol, TSH) — confirms menopause + rules out thyroid. [Women's Hormone Panel](https://www.test-well.com/tests/womens-hormone-panel) is comprehensive (9 tests, adds Progesterone, Testosterone, DHEA-S, SHBG, Prolactin) — broader hormonal evaluation. Use Menopause for symptom confirmation; use Women's Hormone for full workup.

### How much does the Menopause Panel cost without insurance?

On TestWell, the Menopause Panel is $179.99. Quest Direct lists comparable bundles at $217, walk-in hospital labs typically bill $400-600 for the same biomarkers without insurance.

### Do I need to fast or time the draw?

No fasting required. Time matters only if you're still cycling — early follicular phase (days 3-5) gives the most interpretable baseline. If cycles are irregular or absent, draw any day with that noted in interpretation. Morning draw preferred for consistency.

### Should I add Testosterone for menopause workup?

Yes for women with low libido or considering bioidentical hormone therapy. Add [Testosterone Total](https://www.test-well.com/tests/testosterone-total) and SHBG to evaluate bioavailable testosterone, which declines with menopause and can contribute to low libido. The [Women's Hormone Panel](https://www.test-well.com/tests/womens-hormone-panel) includes these.

### How often should I retest?

Once for diagnosis if symptoms are clear. Every 3-6 months during HRT titration. Annually thereafter while on stable HRT. Once you're 12 months without a period, no further lab confirmation is needed.
