Women's Hormone Health Panel

The women's hormone health panel at Dr Tan Medical Center provides a detailed assessment of a woman's hormonal status, designed to identify imbalances that may be driving symptoms of perimenopause, menopause, thyroid dysfunction, adrenal stress or general hormonal disruption. The panel is particularly relevant for women in their late 30s through to post-menopause who are experiencing hot flushes, night sweats, mood changes, fatigue, sleep disturbance,…
