Step 2 — Collect and test: Use the midstream urine test according to the enclosed instructions and read with a timer after 3 minutes.

Step 3 — Read: Use a timer and follow the exact reading window in the enclosed instructions. Use the enclosed guide to check the control and interpret the result; repeat with a new test if invalid.

Step 4 — After the test: Dispose of used collection materials safely, wash your hands and record the result. If the control is absent or the result is unclear, use a new test and follow the leaflet.

At a glance: Prepare → Collect urine sample → Apply to device → Time and interpret.

Read the midstream test at 3 minutes as instructed and check that its control is valid. A high FSH indication can be consistent with the menopause transition but does not confirm it; FSH fluctuates across cycles. A negative result does not exclude perimenopause. Discuss troublesome symptoms, fertility questions or unexpected bleeding with a clinician.

When to seek advice: Discuss symptoms and results with a clinician, particularly if under 45 or if symptoms affect daily life. FSH varies across the cycle; one result cannot confirm or rule out menopause.

FSH can rise when ovarian activity changes, but menstrual history and symptoms often matter more than a single hormone result. The kit may contain more than one test; follow the pack instructions on repeat testing.

What does the Newfoundland Menopause Test check?
This at-home screening kit uses a urine sample to check follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). FSH can rise when ovarian activity changes, but menstrual history and symptoms often matter more than a single hormone result. The kit may contain more than one test; follow the pack instructions on repeat testing. The result is intended to help you decide whether further clinical advice is needed; it is not a diagnosis on its own.

Who might consider using the Menopause home test?
For people with irregular periods, hot flushes or other changes who want to explore whether they may be approaching menopause. This is for people with irregular periods, hot flushes, night sweats or other changes who want an indication of higher FSH. Anyone under 45 with possible menopause symptoms, or with unexpected bleeding, should seek clinical advice. A clinician can advise if your symptoms are persistent, severe or outside the purpose of this home screen.

What is included in the Newfoundland Menopause kit?
The manufacturer lists Midstream test, and Instructions. Check the actual pack contents and expiry date before starting. You will need a timer and may need other materials as stated in the enclosed leaflet; components and packaging should be checked against that leaflet.

How do I collect the sample and perform the test?
Read the enclosed instructions before opening the device. Use the midstream urine test according to the enclosed instructions and read with a timer after 3 minutes. Use only the sample type and amounts specified for this particular kit, keep the work area clean and do not reuse any single-use component. The step-by-step product tab summarises the process.

How quickly will I get the Menopause test result?
Newfoundland states results in about 3 minutes. Start timing when the sample is applied or the device is activated, as the leaflet directs. Read only in the stated window: interpreting too soon or after the cut-off may give a misleading result. Check the control or validity guide first.

What does an abnormal or positive Menopause result mean?
Read the midstream test at 3 minutes as instructed and check that its control is valid. A high FSH indication can be consistent with the menopause transition but does not confirm it; FSH fluctuates across cycles. A negative result does not exclude perimenopause. Discuss troublesome symptoms, fertility questions or unexpected bleeding with a clinician. Follow the leaflet’s exact result illustration, as positive and negative patterns are not the same for every self-test.

How accurate is the Newfoundland Menopause self-test?
The product is advertised as over 99% for its intended use. This does not mean every individual result is certain: sample collection, timing, storage, expiry and how early a condition is tested can all affect performance. Follow the enclosed instructions and seek professional assessment when symptoms or risk remain.

What if my Menopause result is negative, unclear or invalid?
A negative home result does not rule out every cause of your symptoms or concern. If the kit’s required control is absent, the colour comparison is unclear or the test was read outside its window, do not rely on it: repeat with a new kit as directed. Ask a clinician about ongoing symptoms or an unexpected result.

Does a positive FSH test confirm menopause?
No. FSH can fluctuate during perimenopause and across menstrual cycles. A high result may fit the symptoms but one urine test does not diagnose menopause. A clinician can consider age, periods, medicines and symptoms, particularly if you are under 45 or have unusual bleeding.

Can hormonal contraception affect menopause testing?
Hormonal contraception can alter bleeding patterns and hormone interpretation. Read the kit’s limitations and discuss symptoms with a clinician if you use hormonal medication. Do not stop contraception based on an FSH result: pregnancy can still be possible during the menopause transition.
