The average woman stops menstruating around the age of 51 (menopause). However, hormonal changes often begin much earlier (pre-menopause). These hormonal changes can cause menopausal symptoms, which vary greatly between individuals. Some women may notice symptoms as early as their 40s, or even earlier in rare cases, while others may experience little to no noticeable changes.
The Silex® One-Step Menopause Test provides an initial indication of whether menopause may have started, regardless of whether you are experiencing symptoms.
The test works using a urine sample, similar to a pregnancy test. Silex® detects the presence of FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone). This hormone is typically elevated in urine during perimenopause, the first official phase of menopause, during which menstrual patterns begin to change.
A positive result indicates that this hormone has been detected in your urine and that menopause has likely begun.
