What's tested

What does the package measure?

Core menopause hormones plus the heart and metabolic markers that matter more after menopause, grouped so you can see the whole picture. All from one blood draw.

Timing helps if you still have periods: FSH, LH and oestrogen shift across the menstrual cycle, so an early-cycle sample (around days 2 to 5) gives the clearest read. Once periods have stopped, timing no longer matters.

Menopause hormones

FSH, LH, Oestradiol. The core hormones that map where you are in the menopause transition.

Heart and metabolic

Lipids, HbA1c. Your cholesterol pattern and average blood sugar, since heart and metabolic risk rise after menopause.

Inflammation

CRP. A general marker of low-grade inflammation, linked to heart and metabolic health.

Friendly and competent staff. Both at reception and the nurse. A much simpler process than going through doctors. Thank you ladies.

I cannot recommend Juliette and her team enough, friendly and kind from the get go. Bloods were drawn with minimal discomfort and the labs came back quickly.

Excellent experience at Epicentre. The staff were professional, kind, and took time to explain everything clearly. The facility was clean, booking was easy, and I did not feel rushed.

What this does not do

This is a hormone screen that helps you and your doctor see where you are in the transition. It is a starting point for a conversation, not a diagnosis on its own.

  • Hormones in perimenopause fluctuate from day to day, so a single sample is a snapshot, not the whole story.
  • Menopause is a clinical picture; your doctor reads these results alongside your symptoms and history.
  • This screen does not start, change or replace any treatment; decisions about HRT or other options need a doctor.
  • Results are meant to inform a discussion with a registered practitioner.
Common questions

Quick answers

FSH, LH, Oestradiol, Lipids, HbA1c and CRP. The package is R1,411, with results in 2 to 5 working days.
No. Fasting is not required for this package. If your doctor specifically wants a fasting lipid result, you can come in the morning after an overnight fast, but it is not needed.
If you still have periods, early in the cycle (around days 2 to 5) gives the clearest hormone read. Once your periods have stopped, timing no longer matters.
No. Book or walk in to any branch in Cape Town, Durban or Johannesburg without a doctor's referral.
Typically within 2 to 5 working days, with a free results certificate you can share with your doctor.
At our three walk-in labs: Observatory in Cape Town, Hillcrest in Durban and Parktown North in Johannesburg, Monday to Friday, 08:30 to 16:00.
