What we test

24 markers. Each one read on the day it can be read.

Most panels were built around a body that doesn't cycle. Gini draws twice, around day 3 and day 21, so every marker below is scored against the range for its phase, not a single range meant for everyone.

What your body is trying to tell you

Hair loss

Ferritin is below your range

Fatigue

Thyroid markers shifted this cycle

Cravings

Glucose is spiking later in the month

Pimples

Androgens sit above your baseline

Painful periods

Inflammation is up this week

The panel

What each marker tells you, and why it matters for women.

Reproductive hormones

The signals that run the cycle. Every one of them moves across the month, so the draw day decides what the number means.

5 markers

  • Estradiol

    Know whether your mood swings, hot flashes or heavy periods are hormonal, and whether you are entering perimenopause.

  • Progesterone

    Confirm you actually ovulated this cycle, the first thing to know if you are trying to conceive or your periods feel off.

  • FSH

    See where your ovarian reserve stands and whether perimenopause has started, years before anyone would mention it.

  • LH

    Spot the LH-to-FSH pattern behind PCOS/PMOS, so irregular cycles get a name instead of a shrug.

  • Prolactin

    Rule out a silent, treatable cause of missing periods and infertility that is rarely checked.

Androgens

Women make testosterone too. Too much of it, or too little of what carries it, shows up on skin, hair and cycle.

5 markers

  • Total testosterone

    Find out if acne, chin hair or scalp thinning are hormonal, and if PCOS/PMOS is the real diagnosis behind them.

  • Free testosterone

    Catch androgen excess even when total testosterone looks normal, the reason so many women get told they are fine.

  • SHBG

    Learn why your androgens hit harder than your levels suggest, and get an early warning sign of insulin resistance.

  • Albumin

    Get an accurate free testosterone result instead of an estimate, plus a check on nutrition and liver health.

  • DHEA-S

    Know whether excess androgens come from your adrenals or your ovaries, because the treatment is different.

Thyroid

Thyroid disorders are five to eight times more common in women, and they mimic almost everything else on this page.

2 markers

  • TSH

    Find out if fatigue, weight change, hair loss or irregular cycles are your thyroid, one of the most missed causes in women.

  • Free T4

    Confirm whether your thyroid is truly under- or over-active, so treatment starts on the right dose.

Metabolism

Insulin resistance sits underneath most PCOS/PMOS, drives cravings and weight gain, and raises long-term diabetes risk.

2 markers

  • HbA1c

    See your blood sugar trend before it becomes diabetes, especially important with PCOS/PMOS or past gestational diabetes.

  • Triglycerides

    Catch insulin resistance early and get a heart-risk read that matters more for women than for men.

Heart

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in women. Estrogen protects until menopause; these markers show what happens after.

4 markers

  • LDL cholesterol

    Track how your heart risk shifts as estrogen declines, and act on it before menopause removes the protection.

  • HDL cholesterol

    Know if your protective cholesterol is where a woman's should be. A low HDL is a louder warning in women than in men.

  • Total cholesterol

    Follow your overall trend across draws and life stages instead of being judged on one number on one day.

  • ApoB

    Get the most accurate measure of plaque-forming particles, so you are not falsely reassured by a normal LDL.

Iron & inflammation

Monthly bleeding makes iron deficiency the most common deficiency in women. Inflammation tracks with pain, PCOS/PMOS and heart risk.

2 markers

  • Ferritin

    Find the most common reason women feel exhausted, lose hair and can't focus: low iron stores from monthly bleeding.

  • hsCRP

    Measure the inflammation behind painful periods, endometriosis and PCOS/PMOS, and know your long-term heart risk.

Liver & kidney

The organs that clear hormones and medications. Both are affected by insulin resistance, often silently.

3 markers

  • ALT

    Catch fatty liver while it is still reversible. It is rising fast in women with PCOS/PMOS and rarely has symptoms.

  • Creatinine

    Check your kidneys against a range built for a woman's body, not a default set on men with more muscle mass.

  • eGFR

    Catch early kidney stress years before you would feel it, while it can still be turned around.

Vitamins

A deficiency so common it is easy to miss, and one that touches hormones, bone and mood.

1 marker

  • Vitamin D

    Fix one of the easiest deficiencies to treat, linked to low mood, irregular cycles, bone loss and PCOS/PMOS.

Panels are tailored to your intake and stage of life, so your exact marker list may differ. Gini does not diagnose and is not a replacement for your doctor.
