    About Medical Conditions & Treatments

    How much does a blood test cost?

    Blood test costs in Mexico are significantly more affordable than in the US, typically ranging from $30-150 USD depending on the type and complexity of tests. Basic blood panels like CBC (Complete Blood Count) cost around $30-50, while comprehensive metabolic panels range from $50-80. Specialized tests may cost $80-150. This represents savings of 60-80% compared to US prices, making Mexico an excellent destination for routine blood work and health screenings.

    What signals the end of menopause?

    Menopause is officially complete when you've gone 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period. Post-menopause begins after this point and continues for the rest of your life. Symptoms like hot flashes and night sweats typically decrease in frequency and intensity during the first few years after menopause. However, some effects like vaginal dryness and bone density changes may persist and require ongoing management.
