The SELFCHECK Menopause (FSH) self-test is a simple and convenient device that can be used to detect menopause by measuring the levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in the urine. To use the test, you should collect an early morning urine sample and immerse the end of the test device into the urine stream for a few seconds. After waiting for 10 minutes, you can read the result on the device, which will show two lines. If the lower line is the same intensity of colour or darker than the upper line, then the result is positive. However, if you get a positive result, it's recommended that you check again the following week.
While most doctors can diagnose menopause in women who are 45 years or older without the need for an FSH test, this self-test can be helpful in cases where diagnosis may not be clear. It's important to note that levels of FSH can fluctuate, which is why the SELFCHECK Menopause (FSH) self-test contains two tests that should be used on two different occasions. Only if both tests show raised levels of FSH should menopause be considered.
The test kit includes full instructions and information, making it easy to use at home. It's essential to wait for confirmation from your doctor before changing your medication, contraception, or lifestyle. With each kit containing two tests, you can perform the test twice to ensure accuracy and peace of mind.
The SELFCHECK Menopause (FSH) self-test offers a quick and reliable method of detecting menopause, giving you the information you need to make informed decisions about your health. Don't let uncertainty affect your wellbeing; use this easy-to-use self-test to gain clarity about your menopause status.
