The Advanced Female Wellness Test is a comprehensive at-home hormone and health screening for women who want a complete picture of their hormonal, metabolic, thyroid, cardiovascular, and toxic element status — all from a single finger-prick blood spot sample collected at home.
This advanced panel measures 31 essential biomarkers across female hormones, fertility markers, thyroid function, cholesterol, blood sugar, inflammation, essential minerals, and toxic heavy metals — providing one of the most thorough female health assessments available without a clinic visit.
Results are interpreted by a specialist hormone doctor and delivered as a personalised, easy-to-read graphical report within 3–5 working days of the laboratory receiving your sample.

Why This Panel Matters
Hormones regulate nearly every aspect of female wellbeing — from menstrual cycles and fertility to mood, energy, metabolism, sleep, thyroid function, and cardiovascular health. Even subtle imbalances across multiple hormone systems can produce wide-ranging symptoms that are often dismissed or misattributed. This test is designed to identify the root hormonal, metabolic, and environmental drivers behind your symptoms — so you can take targeted, evidence-based action.
Key Sections Explained
AMH & Ovarian Reserve: Anti-Müllerian Hormone reflects ovarian reserve — the remaining egg supply. Supports fertility planning, PCOS evaluation, and early menopause screening.
Oestrogen, Progesterone & Menstrual Health: All three oestrogens alongside progesterone reveal hormonal balance across the cycle — linked to PMS, PMDD, irregular cycles, and perimenopausal symptoms.
Testosterone & SHBG: Women need healthy testosterone for energy, libido, and mental clarity. SHBG controls how much is biologically active.
Cortisol & DHEA-S: Adrenal markers assessing stress resilience, burnout, and their impact on reproductive and immune health.
Full Thyroid Panel: TSH, Free T3, Free T4, Total T4, TPO antibodies, and thyroglobulin — detecting hypothyroidism, Hashimoto’s, conversion issues, and subclinical dysfunction.
Metabolic Health: HbA1c, fasting insulin, and hs-CRP assess blood sugar control, insulin resistance, and systemic inflammation.
Toxic Elements & Minerals: Mercury and cadmium disrupt hormones and thyroid function; zinc, magnesium, selenium, and copper are essential for hormone synthesis and antioxidant defence.
Vitamin D: D2 and D3 fractions measured; deficiency is widespread in the UK and linked to fatigue, low mood, and hormonal imbalance.
