Expert support for ambitious women during perimenopause, menopause, and metabolic transitions.

Yes. Labs are ordered as soon as you book and pay for your Hormone Health Assessment so we can review them together at your first visit. This makes your care more efficient and allows Dr. Kahan to create a tailored plan sooner.

Maybe. Dr. Kahan orders a specific panel designed for midlife hormone health. This panel may differ from what other providers order. If you have had labs done within the last 60 days, Dr. Kahan can review them to ensure accuracy and completeness, and then order for you any additional labs that are missing.

You have two options: Use your insurance — if your insurance does not cover the labs in full, the lab will bill you directly for any remaining balance, which can sometimes be significant. SheMD is not able to intervene or adjust these charges, so please check with your insurance provider before testing if you are concerned about costs. Use our significantly discounted cash-pay pricing — this option allows you to know your costs upfront and often saves money compared to out-of-pocket insurance charges. Most patients choose this option for predictability and peace of mind.

Hormone therapy can be life-changing, but it's also complex and every woman's needs are different. Many programs are run by providers without formal training in gynecology or women's health, and many only offer one-off visits with. minimal follow up. That can make it harder to fine-tune treatment, manage side effects, or adapt your plan as your needs change. At SheMD, your care is led by Dr. Kahan, a board-certified gynecologist who has spent her career caring for women through every stage of lige. This means you're getting a specialist who understands the full spectrum of midlife health, from your hormone balance to your gynecologic care.

When you book, your assessment is paid in full so we can get started right away. This includes ordering your labs and giving Dr. Kahan the time to carefully review your results in advance. This preparation ensures your visit is focused, efficient, and tailored to you. Because of this work, the fee is nonrefundable. Life happens, so if you need to change your appointment, just give at least 72 hours' notice and we'll happily move your visit to a new date at no extra cost.

The Hormone Assessment is for anyone who wants a deeper look at their hormone health. While many women see me for perimenopause and menopause care, I also work with patients who have PCOS, endometriosis, or other hormone-related concerns. Some women simply want a comprehensive "hormone deep dive" to better understand their health and take a proactive approach before symptoms become disruptive.
