Frequently Asked Questions

  • Routine tests for women's health include general tests to check blood counts, thyroid health, colon cancer screenings, and cholesterol and lipid levels. However, testing needs will vary depending on age and health history. Labcorp OnDemand has curated tests and topics to help you understand what insights matter most for every stage of life.

  • Depending on your specific concerns, blood tests to measure levels of hormones, such as estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and thyroid hormones may be valuable for hormonal health. These tests may help identify issues related to fertility, menopause and overall well-being.
     

    Hormone testing may vary depending on your age and symptoms. Talk to your healthcare provider about which tests might be right for you.

  • After menopause, your body goes through significant changes, and so do your health screening needs. You may need more frequent bone density scans to check for osteoporosis, as well as regular cholesterol and blood pressure checks for heart health. It's also a good time to discuss screenings for diabetes and thyroid issues. Your healthcare provider may recommend tests specific to your age and health history.

  • Getting tested for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is an important part of your overall health. How often you should get tested depends on your age, sexual activity and risk factors. The CDC recommends the following STI screening guidelines1:
     

    • All sexually active women younger than 25 years, should be tested for chlamydia and gonorrhea every year
    • Women 25 years and older with risk factors, like new or multiple partners, or a partner who has a STI, should be tested for chlamydia and gonorrhea every year
    • Everyone ages 13 to 64 years should be tested at least once for HIV. Consult with your healthcare provider to better understand what tests are right for your individual situation
