Sensitest Menopause – home FSH urine test
When the test is useful
Menopause is the permanent cessation of menstruation. It is usually confirmed only after one full year has passed since the last menstrual period. The period before menopause and the following 12 months is referred to as perimenopause.
During this period, symptoms may include hot flashes, irregular menstrual cycles, sleep disorders, vaginal dryness, hair loss, anxiety, mood swings, short-term memory problems, or fatigue.
As estrogen production declines, the body may increase production of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). This test is intended for the qualitative detection of elevated FSH in urine to aid in the detection of menopause.
The test is intended for in vitro home self-testing. The result is indicative only and does not replace medical examination or physician confirmation of menopause.
Key benefits
  • Complete test kit with the required accessories.
  • Simple home test using a urine sample.
  • Read the result at 3 minutes; do not interpret the result after 10 minutes.
  • Qualitative test for detecting elevated FSH in urine.
  • The test does not require medical expertise, but the enclosed instructions for use must always be followed.
When to test
If you still have regular menstrual periods
Perform the first test during the first week of your menstrual cycle, that is between days 2 and 7. Day 1 is the first day of menstruation. If the result is negative but symptoms persist, repeat the second test one week later.
If you no longer have regular periods
You may perform the test at any time during the month and repeat the second test one week later.
First morning urine is preferred because it usually contains the highest concentration of FSH. However, urine collected at any time of the day may also be used.
Easy to use
Before testing, allow the test cassette and urine sample to reach room temperature of 15 to 30 °C.
  1. Choose the correct testing day according to your menstrual cycle.
  2. Open the foil pouch at room temperature, remove the test cassette, and use it immediately, within 1 hour.
  3. Place the cassette on a clean and level surface.
  4. Hold the dropper vertically and add 3 drops of urine into the sample well marked S. Avoid trapping air bubbles.
  5. Start the timer. Read the result at 3 minutes and no later than 10 minutes.
Result interpretation
  • Positive result: two lines are visible and the T test line is the same intensity as or darker than the C control line. This means the FSH level is elevated.
  • Negative result: two lines are visible, but the T line is lighter than the C line, or the T line does not appear. This means the FSH level is not elevated at this time.
  • Invalid result: the C control line does not appear. This may be caused by insufficient specimen volume or incorrect procedure. Repeat the test with a new cassette.
Interpretation of results
For women with premenopausal symptoms and irregular menstrual cycles
1st test 2nd test Interpretation
Positive Positive You are most likely in perimenopause. Discuss appropriate next steps and health measures with your doctor. Do not stop using contraception unless advised by your doctor.
Positive Negative You may be in an early stage of perimenopause. Do not stop using contraception unless advised by your doctor.
Negative Positive You may be in an early stage of perimenopause. Do not stop using contraception unless advised by your doctor.
Negative Negative You are most likely not experiencing perimenopause in this cycle. If symptoms persist, repeat testing in the following month or consult your doctor about other possible causes.
For women with menopausal symptoms and no menstrual period during the past 12 months
1st test Interpretation
Positive Menopause has most likely occurred. The test may be repeated. Discuss next steps and health measures for the post-menopausal period with your doctor.
Important: A positive test result does not determine fertility. Do not stop contraception until menopause has been confirmed by your doctor.
