r. Pelin Batur specializes in women's health for Cleveland Clinic. She says women will often come in for symptoms related to Perimenopause, Post Menopause or when they have disruptions in their menstrual cycle. Testing varies based on the situation. But Dr. Batur says, in some cases, they will check estrogen, testosterone or thyroid hormone levels. She says it's important to note that certain symptoms, like difficulty losing weight or hair loss, aren't always related to hormones. It could be due to dietary and lifestyle choices. That's why Dr. Batur makes sure to have a thorough conversation before making a determination.
