PRIMA Lab Menopause FSH Test is an immunochromatographic device that detects the FSH hormone in urine thanks to special gold-conjugated monoclonal antibodies incorporated in the test strip. It is indicated for women who begin to experience symptoms related to menopause: lack of menstrual cycles, hot flashes, sleep irregularities and obvious mood changes.
The change in hormonal balance associated with the onset of menopause generally occurs around age 45, although the real signs appear around age 55.
