Blood tests
In most cases it is not necessary to do blood tests in women between 45 and 60 years of age, as the diagnosis of menopause is made on symptoms.
However, if you are below the age of 45 or over the age of 60 you may need further investigations or blood tests prior to anything being prescribed (if appropriate). These will be discussed with you in your consultation in more detail. If you have had any recent investigations done with your GP please bring these along to your appointment.

You will be sent confirmation and reminder emails and texts in advance of your appointment. And if you choose a virtual appointment the link for the video call will be sent to you in advance of your consultation.
