It is a test that measures levels of thyroid hormones to evaluate the state of the thyroid gland which produces hormones that play a critical role in our metabolism, energy levels, and more. This test is particularly relevant for women with changes in their menstrual cycles, or women in menopause, as thyroid function can influence the hormones that regulate our period.
The thyroid can affect menstrual cycles by influencing the hormones that regulate the menstrual cycle, and an overactive or underactive thyroid can cause irregular periods, heavy or light bleeding, or even absence of periods.

What is being tested?
Our Thyroid Function Test measures levels of thyroid hormones and other markers in the blood to evaluate how well the thyroid gland is functioning during menopause.
FT4
A thyroid hormone that plays a critical role in regulating metabolism, growth, and development. In women, FT4 levels may decrease as they age and enter menopause. This decrease may be associated with an increased risk of thyroid dysfunction and related symptoms.
