“I really liked the emphasis on prevention, which you don’t see in a normal doctor’s office.”

K.Z., 2025/05/13

Am I in the right place?

All four include a 45-minute 1:1 consultation with a hormone specialist. What differs is not the scope, but the focus of that consultation.

Why take this test?

How to plan your test

With female hormones, timing decides how much the result can tell you.

Fasting glucose and triglycerides are only meaningful in the fasting state. Please eat nothing for 8 to 12 hours before the blood draw. Water and unsweetened tea are fine. In the 24 hours beforehand, avoid alcohol and a very fatty meal the evening before, as both push triglycerides up markedly.

Step 3

Specialist hormone consultation

45 minutes 1:1 by video with a specialist in gynaecology who focuses on female hormones and reproductive medicine. You leave the consultation with an interpretation and concrete next steps, not with a lab printout.

Step 4

Your results, always medically interpreted

Only after the consultation are your results released in the care App, reviewed by our medical team, with an explanation of every biomarker and a written report to keep and to share. So you never receive raw numbers before someone has put them in context for you.

The 13 biomarkers we measure

Thirteen values that together show where you stand in the transition, with or without a regular cycle.

PMOS (formerly PCOS)

13

  • Estradiol (Early Follicular)

    The most important female sex hormone. It drives the build-up of the uterine lining, triggers ovulation via the LH surge, and acts on bone and blood vessels.

  • Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH)

    Regulates the growth of the ovarian follicles and the production of sex hormones.

  • Luteinizing Hormone (LH)

    Triggers ovulation, steers androgen production in the ovary and maintains the corpus luteum. Its ratio to FSH gives an additional clue.

  • Prolactin

    A hormone of the pituitary gland. Elevated levels can suppress ovulation and cause cycle disturbances or absent bleeding.

  • TSH

    The control hormone of the thyroid. It affects cycle, energy, weight and mood.

  • DHEA-S

    An androgen precursor from the adrenal gland. It shows whether elevated androgens come from the adrenal gland rather than the ovaries. Normal ranges depend strongly on age.

  • Total Testosterone

    The most important androgen in women. It acts on muscle, bone, skin, hair growth and libido.

  • Free Testosterone

    The freely active share of testosterone, calculated from total testosterone, SHBG and albumin. More informative than the total value alone.

  • SHBG

    A transport protein for sex hormones. It determines how much testosterone and estradiol is freely active. Low levels are considered a sign of insulin resistance.

  • Albumin

    The second transport protein. Needed to calculate free, active testosterone correctly.

  • Fasting glucose

    Blood sugar in a fasted state, the central value for sugar metabolism.

  • Triglycerides

    Blood fats that show how your body processes and stores energy.

  • 17-OH progesterone (17-hydroxy progesterone)

    Helps distinguish hormonal causes originating in the adrenal gland from others.

Specialist hormone advice

Female hormones are a discipline in their own right. Gynaecology covers a broad spectrum, from preventive care through pregnancy and birth to surgery. Gynaecological endocrinology is the narrow field within it, and comparatively few practitioners pursue it in depth.

This is precisely where our gynaecologists at care concentrate. They work with female hormones every day and train in the field on an ongoing basis, across cycle health, fertility, perimenopause and PMOS.
