Can I use this if I don't have a period anymore?
Yes, as long as you have ovaries, you can test. Periods are optional here at Proov. However, please note that any hormones (bioidentical, birth control, etc) will affect your hormone test results.
Will Proov Empower tell me if I am in menopause?
Proov Empower can help you understand if you are in perimenopause or menopause by analyzing your hormone levels and patterns associated with these stages, and providing insights through the Proov Insights App. But only your medical doctor can diagnose menopause.
I'm on hormonal birth control or HRT, can I still use this test?
Yes, you can still log your symptoms, track your hormones, and connect with a medical professional, just note any hormones you are taking will affect your hormone results. Most forms of birth control that contain synthetic estrogen and/or progesterone will decrease levels of natural hormones and as a result Proov FSH, E1G, and PdG levels will be lower. Optimal hormone ranges displayed in the Proov app are based on the levels the body naturally produces before menopause. Hormone replacement (HRT) levels could be different from these levels. We advise you to reach out to your doctor with any questions.
Will this tell me if I'm in menopause?
No, only a medical professional can diagnose menopause, but we can tell you all about your hormones, how they correlate with your symptoms, and where you sit along the 5-10 year path from normal cycles to menopause.
We will even connect you to a medical provider at MIDI to review your results and get prescription medication support (if that is your thing).
How is this different than a blood test my doctor would do?
We measure your hormones in urine instead of blood. This allows us to get a snapshot of your levels without needles or lab visits. Blood tests are typically a single day, but Empower lets you track your hormones over 4 timepoints to see how your hormones change over time. This is important since most symptoms are due to changing hormones. So we can catch what that single blood test is missing
I'm on hormonal birth control or HRT, can I still use this test?
Yes, you can still track your symptoms, hormones, and connect with a medical professional. However, note that most birth control contains synthetic estrogen and/or progesterone that will affect your hormone results, often causing lower Proov FSH, E1G, and PdG levels. The app's hormone ranges are based on natural pre-menopause levels, which may differ from HRT levels. Consult your doctor with any questions.
Which hormones does Proov Empower monitor?
Proov Empower measures four key hormones: Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH), Estrogen, Luteinizing Hormone (LH), and Progesterone (via progesterone metabolite PdG). These hormones are tested 4 times during your cycle to give a comprehensive view of hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause.
Who is Proov Empower for?
