A member asked:

I suspect that i might have low levels of estrogen. should i go directly to a guinea or should i see a gp first for a referral? i would like to follow the correct process and avoid extra charges from the medical aid.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

"low estrogen" ?: See a gyn provider, as this will avoid additional costs. He/she will know immediately what tests to run, etc..
