Biomarkers:

1. Free Thyroxine (T4):

   • Description: T4 is a hormone produced by the thyroid gland that helps regulate metabolism.
   • Importance: Monitoring T4 levels is crucial during menopause, as thyroid function can affect energy levels, weight management, and overall well-being.

2. Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH):

   • Description: TSH is a hormone that regulates the production of thyroid hormones, including T4.
   • Importance: Changes in TSH levels can indicate thyroid dysfunction, which is common during menopause and can contribute to symptoms like fatigue, weight changes, and mood swings.

3. Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH):

   • Description: FSH is a hormone that plays a key role in regulating the menstrual cycle and ovarian function.
   • Importance: Elevated FSH levels are a hallmark of menopause, indicating the decline in ovarian function and the transition out of reproductive years.

4. Luteinizing Hormone (LH):

   • Description: LH works with FSH to regulate the menstrual cycle and ovulation.
   • Importance: Monitoring LH levels helps confirm the onset of menopause and provides insights into hormone fluctuations during this transition.

5. Estradiol:

   • Description: Estradiol is the primary form of estrogen, essential for reproductive health and overall well-being.
   • Importance: Declining estradiol levels are a key indicator of menopause, contributing to symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, and bone density loss.
