GUT & HORMONE TESTING

Finally understand what your body has been trying to tell you.

If you’ve been feeling tired, bloated, moody, craving sugar, holding onto weight or just “not yourself,” you’re not imagining it — your body is asking for attention.
The problem is, most women are told their symptoms are “normal” or “just ageing,” and they’re left without answers.

This is where proper testing changes everything.

I am not a doctor. I work with trusted doctors to run the right tests, and I help you interpret the results so you actually understand what they mean in real life — without the overwhelm.

Why Women Choose Testing

Your body doesn’t fall apart in your 40s.
It communicates.

Women often come to me because they’re experiencing:

  • Unexplained weight gain

  • Bloating, constipation, cravings or unpredictable digestion

  • Low energy, fatigue or brain fog

  • Hot flushes or mood changes

  • PMS that suddenly feels different

  • Waking up at 2–3am

  • Skin breakouts, dryness or inflammation

  • Anxiety or feeling “wired but tired”

  • A gut feeling that something isn’t right

Testing helps us see what’s actually going on — instead of guessing.

What We Test & Why It Matters

Gut Health

Your microbiome affects digestion, cravings, immunity, inflammation, mood and hormones.

Hormones

Your microbiome affects digestion, cravings, immunity, inflammation, mood and hormones.

Blood Sugar & Metabolism

Stubborn weight gain, cravings, energy dips and “hangry” moments often link back here.

Stress & Inflammation

Your body’s internal stress load and how it’s influencing your mood, sleep, gut and hormones.

Nutrient Status

Whether you’re getting — and absorbing — the nutrients you need for energy, recovery and hormone support.

Gut-Brain Connection

How your gut may be influencing anxiety, mood shifts, sleep, irritability and emotional regulation..

What Makes This Approach Different

Because this isn’t a one-size-fits-all plan.
It’s clarity. Support. And a strategy built around your body, your lifestyle and your midlife hormones.

    I work alongside doctors to run the appropriate tests, then help you understand what your results mean in the context of your day-to-day life.

  • No — a standard GP hormone panel is usually basic and often doesn’t give enough detail for women in their 40s.

    It gives a much clearer picture of why you’re feeling the way you feel.
