A home hormone testing kit for British female athletes is "game-changing", says

former sprinter Jeanette Kwakye.

The English Institute of Sport (EIS) announced the new technology, Hormonix, will
provide female athletes with quick and accurate data on their hormone levels using a
saliva sample.

It would allow athletes and coaches to tailor training to menstrual cycles.

"What this is doing now is completely game-changing. They've got it right," said former
British champion Kwakye.

Speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live, Kwakye, who represented Team GB at the 2008
Olympic Games, added: "I think back to when I last had a pair of spikes on in 2012 and
think to myself 'wow'. Had this technology and science been available at the time, there
may have been a number of things different in my own career.
