Overview

Menopause Plus™ evaluates salivary levels of oestradiol, oestrone, oestriol, progesterone, testosterone, cortisol, DHEA and melatonin across multiple days of collection. By combining sex hormones, adrenal markers and melatonin, it provides a broader context for understanding hormonal patterns during the menopausal transition and post-menopause.

This assessment may be clinically useful when practitioners are exploring temperature changes, sleep disruption, vaginal dryness, changes in libido, mood variability, shifts in energy or concerns relating to cognitive clarity. Reviewing hormone, adrenal and melatonin markers together may help illustrate patterns that coincide with the symptoms reported during menopause.

Practitioners typically integrate findings from Menopause Plus™ with health history, symptom timelines, lifestyle influences and complementary testing. In this context, the profile can support discussions around daily rhythms, stress response, sleep patterns and hormonal balance in clients navigating menopause.
