Checks five hormone markers, including FSH, LH and oestradiol alongside thyroid hormones, to help assess menopause or perimenopause. Suited to women with symptoms like hot flushes, irregular periods or mood changes.
5 biomarkers as listed by Medichecks.
This test measures five markers: FSH, LH and oestradiol, which are core reproductive hormones used to assess menopause and perimenopause, plus free thyroxine and TSH, which check thyroid function since an underactive or overactive thyroid can cause similar symptoms to menopause, such as fatigue and mood changes.
Within its comparison group, this test matches the median biomarker count of 5, and at £69 it's around 30% below the group's median price. Among tests covering the same five markers, it's the cheapest, undercutting Blue Horizon Medicals' Menopause Matters (£70.25) and London Medical Laboratory's Menopause Hormones Profile (£79) as well as Better2Know's Menopause Screen Nurse Kit (£119). Tests with fewer markers, such as YorkTest's (2 markers, £55) and MyHealthChecked's (3 markers, £57), cost less, and tests with more markers, like Numan's (9 markers, £98) and Selph's (12 markers, £99), cost more.
It scores well across most criteria: it can be done at home with a finger-prick sample as well as clinic or nurse-visit options, turnaround is around two days, one of the quickest in the group, and every result comes with a doctor's comment.
This test suits women experiencing possible menopause or perimenopause symptoms, such as hot flushes, irregular periods, mood changes or low energy, who want hormone and thyroid markers checked together in one affordable test. Among tests with the same five markers, it's the cheapest option we track.
If you want a broader hormone picture and are willing to pay more, Numan's Menopause Blood Test (£98, 9 markers) or Selph's Perimenopause and Menopause Blood Test (£99, 12 markers) cover more ground. If budget is the priority and you're happy with fewer markers, YorkTest's Menopause Test (£55, 2 markers) is cheaper still.
You can collect a finger-prick blood sample at home, or choose an in-store clinic visit, a home nurse visit, or a venous draw at a clinic. The lab measures FSH, LH, oestradiol, free thyroxine and TSH, with results typically available within two days. A doctor adds a comment to your results before you see them.
Five hormone and thyroid markers make up this £69 test, the cheapest of the three tests in its comparison group that measure the same number of markers, undercutting Blue Horizon Medicals' Menopause Matters (£70.25) and London Medical Laboratory's Menopause Hormones Profile (£79). Cheaper options with fewer markers exist, such as YorkTest's Menopause Test (£55, 2 markers), and deeper ones cost more, like Selph's Perimenopause and Menopause Blood Test (£99, 12 markers).

Broadest perimenopause and menopause panel in its group
Checks thyroid function, cholesterol, blood sugar and vitamin D, markers linked to health risks around perimenopause and menopause. Suited to women wanting a wider risk check, though it doesn't test reproductive hormones such as FSH or oestradiol.
Same 5-hormone depth as top rivals, cheaper than most of them
Checks FSH, LH, oestradiol, progesterone and testosterone, the main hormones used to help assess menopause and perimenopause symptoms.
Deepest panel among the shown peers, priciest too
Checks 14 markers covering cholesterol, thyroid, blood sugar and vitamin D, aimed at women wanting a wider picture of heart, bone and metabolic health around menopause.
5-hormone menopause panel priced below the group median
A blood test measuring FSH, LH, oestradiol, testosterone and thyroid-stimulating hormone, used together to help assess whether symptoms are linked to menopause or a thyroid problem instead. Suits women investigating perimenopause or menopause symptoms.
More markers than most menopause tests, no doctor review
This blood test measures nine hormones and thyroid markers linked to the menopause transition, including oestradiol, FSH and LH. It suits women approaching or in menopause who want a broader hormone and thyroid check than a basic screen.
Cheapest named menopause test here, but fewest markers
An at-home finger-prick test measuring FSH and LH, two hormones commonly used to assess menopause and perimenopause status. Suited to women approaching menopausal age.
Priced well under its group median, modest on markers
Measures three key hormones (oestradiol, progesterone and FSH) to help indicate whether you are entering or in perimenopause or menopause. Suits women noticing menstrual cycle changes or menopause-type symptoms who want an initial hormone check.
Cheaper nurse-kit version of Better2Know's menopause panel
The same five-marker hormone panel as Better2Know's clinic Menopause Screen (LH, FSH, oestradiol, TSH, FT4), collected via a nurse-administered venous draw that you send to the lab by post, rather than attending a clinic.
Same marker count as Selph, but £69 more
This blood test measures 12 hormone, thyroid and fertility-related markers, including AMH, linked to perimenopause symptoms. It suits women wanting a detailed hormone picture alongside symptoms like hot flushes or cycle changes.
Cheaper than most peers, but tests only one marker
A single FSH blood test used alongside your symptoms to help indicate whether you are approaching or experiencing menopause.
Standard depth, priced above comparable menopause tests
A five-marker hormone panel covering LH, FSH, oestradiol and thyroid function (TSH, FT4), used to help assess menopausal or perimenopausal status in women experiencing symptoms such as hot flushes or irregular periods.
Priciest menopause panel in its group, but doctor-reviewed
A 5-marker blood test covering FSH, oestradiol, testosterone, SHBG and TSH, used to assess hormonal changes around perimenopause and menopause, with a GP consultation included. Suited to women exploring symptoms or planning HRT.
Maps hormones across your cycle, but priciest peer
A perimenopause test that maps four reproductive hormones across your cycle using two timed finger-prick samples on day 14 and day 21.
