Frequently Asked Questions

the Mohana test kit

Is Mohana's blood test equivalent to standard labs?

Which countries are eligible for Mohana's hormonal tests?

Testing is currently available to the residents of the United States, excluding New York state.

Will a doctor review my results?

All of our lab tests are ordered and reviewed by our physicians. When your test results become available, our physicians look at your test results and decide at their clinical discretion if there is an abnormal result may require a follow-up. If a follow-up is needed, they will contact you directly on the phone number you shared with us when placing your order, and will discuss the necessary next steps.

Can Mohana diagnose me?

No, Mohana is an educational, information-only platform, we do not provide diagnostic services or treatment plans. While we're hoping that Mohana can empower women to self-advocate during their doctor visits, it is at the doctor's discretion to decide if they wish to provide a diagnosis on the basis of your test results on Mohana.

Hormonal contraceptives synthetically alter the hormones that control your menstrual cycle, and as such testing your reproductive hormones such as FSH, LH, estrogen and progesterone will not reveal how your menstrual cycle would naturally function. Keeping this in mind, we have a dedicated lab panel for people currently on a hormonal contraceptive.

Can I download my results to share it with my doctor?

Absolutely! Our mission is to empower women to be able to have informed discussions with their physicians. Therefore, we encourage everyone to share their test results, symptom and cycle information with their providers.

How do I collect my blood sample at home?

As described here, you will first use a lancet to poke your finger. Then you will collect a blood drop in the designated section on your collection card. Your test kit includes everything you need to collect your blood sample at home.

What if I'm having trouble collecting enough blood for the test?

Increase your blood flow by making sure that your hands are warmed up. If you are feeling cold, it often helps to lift your arms up and down, or to run them under warm water.

How often should I get tested?

There is no restriction on how frequently you can get tested - however, certain biomarkers need to be measured on specific days of your cycle, and because of that, we don't recommend to measure your biomarkers more than once per cycle. Some users test at every cycle, while others wait 3 to 6 months to retest in order to allow enough time to see if an intervention was effective at restoring their hormonal balance.

the mohana program

How is the program different from the test kit?

The Mohana program is a personalized program to help you relieve your perimenopause symptoms, while optimizing your long-term health with the key changes that happen during this phase of life. This program includes your first test kit, and in addition provides you with access to our app, a dedicated care team, and your tailored program.

How do I know what to do about my test results?

Our core mission is to fill the information gap that exists around women's hormonal imbalances and the science that exists on actionable and safe procotols that can help women feel better. After your test is completed, we create a health report that contains the following:

1. An analysis of your results
2. Your action plan

Your analysis provides your test result for each biomarker, possible reasons that might impact your biomarker, and symptoms that might arise from out-of-range values. In your action plan, you will find 6 protocols uniquely chosen to help you restore your hormonal balance, and reach your health goal. These are curated by our precision engine, and our team of scientists from leveraging the latest insights in lifestyle, behavioral and nutrition sciences.

How is my action plan created?

Each action plan is created uniquely for you, based on your test results, health objective, symptoms, cycle and other health information that you share during your health assessment. Our precision engine first curates a set of relevant protocols by leveraging your unique health information. Then our team of scientists, medical and naturopathic advisors review the proposed protocols, and select those that are the most relevant to helping you achieve the health goal you identified during the assessment. This process allows us to filter the scientific literature based on what's most likely to get you to improve the health goal that matters to you.

Most of our users start noticing improvements within their first month of following their Mohana care plan. That said, our bodies are unique, and we all have our own health journeys. We normally suggest retesting after 3 months as to allow sufficient time for hormones imbalances to get restored.

Currently, Mohana is tailored to reproductive-age women who still get a period. You can sign up for our waitlist to be the first to try Mohana when we expand our platform for women in menopause.

How do you evaluate the scientific evidence behind each recommendation?

Your action plan contains recommendations for protocols that can help you feel better. These protocols undergo rigorous scientific evaluation to ensure that any information given to you comes from the highest quality scientific sources. In this process, we consider various factors for each protocol from the quality of journals and publishers, the number of publications, the number of test subjects studied, the type of test subjects studied, to the protocol's potential impact size.
