Episode 65: The Best Blood Tests for Perimenopause & Midlife Health

Discover the most important blood tests to track in your 40s and perimenopause, including optimal ranges, what your GP might miss, and how your results can explain fatigue, low mood, weight changes, and more.

• Why trends over time matter more than isolated results
• The “low-hanging fruit” markers that can mimic perimenopause symptoms
• The essential blood tests to request annually, and the optimal ranges to look for
