WHEN TO TAKE THE TEST?
If you're having a period this test should be taken on day 3 of your menstrual cycle (day 1 being the first day of your period). If you're not having a period, it can be taken at any time.
IMPORTANT: If you're using a hormone gel or cream, we would highly recommend the sample is collected via a phlebotomy draw (blood drawn via a vein) due to the risk of contamination.
Oestrogen plays a crucial role in regulating the menstrual cycle, supporting fertility, and maintaining bone, heart, and skin health. Imbalances can lead to symptoms like irregular periods, mood swings, low libido, and hot flushes, particularly in menopause.
Our Oestradiol Blood Test measures your oestradiol (oestrogen) levels with a quick and easy home blood test. Whether you’re experiencing hormonal symptoms, managing conditions like PCOS, or monitoring your hormone levels through perimenopause and menopause, this test provides essential insights.
Simply collect your sample using our finger-prick kit and send it to our accredited lab. Your results will be reviewed by a doctor and available in the Forth app, along with expert guidance on what your levels mean and how to improve your hormonal health.
Getting the insights you need to improve your health has never been easier.
It takes 5 minutes to collect a small sample of blood from your finger tip. Post it back to our labs using the Tracked-24 envelope included in your kit.
You will receive your Results within 2 working days in the Forth app, along with the optional doctors comment and detailed report.
The detailed report makes it easy to identify areas that need improving, make changes and track your progress.
"Oestrogen is the main ovarian hormone, this test offers a snapshot picture of your oestrogen levels. Although useful to monitor fertility, menopause, or hormonal imbalances it should be used as part of a wider panel to help understand your whole hormone network."

What does this test measure?
This test measures oestradiol (the primary form of oestrogen in the body) to assess hormonal balance, reproductive function, and overall health.
Who should take this test?
It’s suitable for women over 18 years of age who want to track their oestrogen levels, including those experiencing irregular periods, menopause symptoms, fertility concerns, or conditions like PCOS.
How does oestrogen affect fertility?
Oestrogen regulates ovulation and prepares the uterus for pregnancy. Low levels can disrupt ovulation and make conception difficult, while high levels may indicate conditions like PCOS or oestrogen dominance.
Can this test confirm menopause?
This test alone cannot confirm menopause, but tracking oestrogen levels over time can indicate hormonal changes associated with perimenopause and menopause.
Our MyFORM Perimenopause Test uses 2 blood samples and groundbreaking AI to accurately measure and map your hormones across your menstrual cycle, giving you a better understand of perimenopause.
What are the symptoms of low oestrogen?
Symptoms include irregular or absent periods, vaginal dryness, low libido, mood swings, fatigue, and weakened bones.
What are the symptoms of high oestrogen?
High oestrogen can cause heavy or irregular periods, bloating, tender breasts, headaches, mood swings, and weight gain.
Can this test help with hormone replacement therapy (HRT) monitoring?
Yes, this test can help you track your oestrogen levels if you’re using HRT to manage menopause symptoms.
When should I take this test?
If you have regular periods, test on day 3 of your cycle for the most accurate readings. If you are postmenopausal or on HRT, you can test at any time.
How often should I test my oestrogen levels?
If you’re tracking changes, testing every 3–6 months can help you monitor hormonal fluctuations. Tracking your oestrogen along with other key female hormones can provide a more complete picture of your hormone changes. Our Female Hormone Blood Test can help with that.

The nurse will give you the blood sample to return to us using the pre-paid envelope provided.
