“Thank you, Ahead Health, I highly recommend your services and we surely stay in touch (hopefully only for preventative reasons!)”

As an enthusiastic athlete and simply a woman in her early 30s, I've finally come to realization that our bodies and health definitely need our support along the life journey we embark on as one. Just before turning 33 and running my 7th marathon, I couldn't help but checking my blood as I've been feeling rather fatigued and also mindful of yet again another birthday and a race. It was so simple! Ahead Health website is clear, user friendly and what I especially appreciate, not overpowering with things one doesn't need (aka a million of extra products where you feel like at a sales market). From the main page to choosing what one is looking for and booking an appointment - easy and with a very little time spent. Simple instructions on what not to do and what to do. Thank you, Ahead Health, I highly recommend your services and we surely stay in touch (hopefully only for preventative reasons!) Tatiana

“Amazing service”

I visited AHEAD HEALTH on Wednesday for an advanced blood test, the entire process was quick, seamless, and far more convenient than going through a doctor's office. The results were delivered within 48 hours, along with …

“I can honestly say it was one of the most impressive and reassuring medical experiences I've had.”

My name is Anastasia, and I recently visited Ahead Clinic in Geneva for a full health check-up, including blood tests and a full-body MRI. I can honestly say it was one of the most impressive and reassuring medical experiences I've had. …

Questions we could help with

Is my work stress affecting my health?

Hormones add context to energy and mood. DHEA-S alone cannot diagnose stress or its effects.

Could my mood swings be hormonal?

Estradiol changes can affect mood. Your doctor considers your cycle, medication and symptoms.

Are changing hormones affecting my training results?

Hormones affect recovery. Missed periods or low estradiol may reflect heavy training or under-fuelling; seek sports-medicine advice.

Are my symptoms related to menopause?

FSH adds context to menopause symptoms. Levels fluctuate; your cycle and symptoms guide interpretation.

Frequently asked questions

If you have a regular menstrual cycle, we recommend booking your appointment on cycle days 2–5, ideally in the morning between 7 am and 10 am. Day 1 is the first day of your period, meaning the first day of proper bleeding, not light spotting beforehand. For example, if your period starts on a Monday:

Monday = Day 1 → first day of your period
Tuesday = Day 2 → recommended
Wednesday = Day 3 → recommended
Thursday = Day 4 → recommended
Friday = Day 5 → recommended

Hormone levels change naturally throughout your cycle. Testing early in the cycle, when levels are at their baseline, allows our medical team to compare your results with reliable reference ranges.

If you take biotin (vitamin B7), for example in hair, skin and nail supplements, please stop taking it at least 2 days before your test, as it can interfere with some hormone measurements. A standard multivitamin is fine. If your doctor has prescribed high-dose biotin, please don't stop without speaking to them first, and let us know in the medical questionnaire. Please also tell us which phase of your menstrual cycle you expect to be in on the day of the blood draw.

You can still take the test. Please tell us in the medical questionnaire which phase of your menstrual cycle you expect to be in on the day of the blood draw, so our medical team can interpret your results correctly.

Some of the hormones we measure stay fairly stable throughout the cycle: testosterone, SHBG, the free androgen index and DHEA-S. These can be interpreted on any day. Others, namely estradiol, FSH, LH and progesterone, change considerably during the cycle, so their meaning depends on when your blood was taken.

If possible, avoid the middle of your cycle, around ovulation, which usually happens about 14 days before your next period. FSH and LH naturally surge at this time, which can make results look similar to those seen in perimenopause. The second half of the cycle is less suitable for estradiol, FSH and LH, but it is the right time to check whether you have ovulated.

Progesterone rises after ovulation, so early in your cycle it is naturally low. When you test on days 2–5, we use progesterone to confirm that your blood was taken at this stage of your cycle. This helps our medical team interpret your other results correctly. A low result at this time is normal and expected.

A test on days 2–5 cannot tell you whether you ovulate. If this is your main question, for example because you are trying to conceive, you can book your test in the second half of your cycle instead. Aim for about 7 days before your next expected period (day 21 in a 28-day cycle). Your progesterone result will then show whether you are likely to have ovulated.

However, your estradiol, FSH and LH results will be harder to interpret, as these are best measured early in the cycle. Your testosterone, SHBG, free androgen index and DHEA-S results are not affected by the timing. This works best if your cycle is regular, since the timing is counted back from your next period.

If you choose this option, please tell us in our medical questionnaire.

The days 2–5 recommendation may not apply to you. Please describe your situation in our medical questionnaire so our medical team can take it into account.

After menopause (no period for 12 months or more): You can take the test on any day. Low progesterone is expected after menopause.
Perimenopause: If you still have periods, even irregular ones, test on days 2–5 of a period if you can. If your periods have become infrequent, you can test on any day. Hormone levels fluctuate considerably during perimenopause. A single test can show signs of change, but it cannot confirm or rule out perimenopause on its own. Our doctors will interpret your results together with your symptoms.
Irregular or absent periods: If you have a period, test on days 2–5. If you haven't had a period for a while, you can test on any day. If there is any chance you could be pregnant, please take a pregnancy test first.
After a hysterectomy or endometrial ablation: If your ovaries are still in place, your hormones may still follow a cycle even without periods. You can test on any day. Please tell us which procedure you had.

It depends on the type of contraception.

Combined pill, patch or vaginal ring: We don't recommend taking the test while using these methods. They suppress or change most of the hormones we measure, so your results would not reflect your natural hormone levels. The bleed during your break is a withdrawal bleed, not a natural period.
Progestogen-only pill or implant: You can take the test, but these methods often prevent ovulation, so some results will be harder to interpret. If you have regular bleeding, test on days 2–5; otherwise, any day is fine.

Please tell us which method and brand you use in our medical questionnaire.

Yes. Please tell us which type and brand of IUD you have.

Copper IUD: This does not affect your hormones. Follow the usual advice and test on days 2–5.
Hormonal IUD (e.g. Mirena, Kyleena, Jaydess): This works mainly inside the uterus, and most people using one still ovulate. If you have periods, test on days 2–5. Many people with a hormonal IUD have very light, irregular or no bleeding. If you can't tell when your period starts, you can test on any day.

If you have an IUD and think you might be pregnant, please see a doctor promptly rather than taking this test.

If you want to see your natural hormone levels, we recommend waiting:

Combined pill, patch or ring: at least 3 months after stopping.
Injection: until your natural periods have returned. This can take up to a year or longer after your last injection.
Progestogen-only pill or implant: until you have had at least one natural period, usually within a few weeks.
Hormonal IUD: no waiting period is needed.

The first bleed after stopping the combined pill, patch or ring is a withdrawal bleed, not a natural period. Please test on days 2–5 of a natural period, and tell us in our medical questionnaire which method you used and when you stopped.

Yes. HRT changes your hormone levels, so your results will reflect your levels on treatment rather than your natural levels. Our medical team will interpret them in that context. Questions about adjusting your HRT should go to the doctor who prescribes it.

Please tell us which HRT you use (for example gel, patch or tablets) and when you last applied or took it. This matters especially for oral progesterone, which raises blood progesterone levels for several hours after each dose.

If you use an estrogen or testosterone gel or cream, please apply it away from your inner arms on the day of your test, so it doesn't affect the blood sample.
