Shedding light on hormones

Complete Hormone Profile

The advanced dried urine test for hormones is an ideal test for complex hormone patients. This comprehensive assessment (D.U.T.C.H) is unique for what it can reveal from such a simple collection.
This test will measure and identify: Estrogens (x13), Progestagens (x7), Androgens (x6), Glucocorticoids (x4), free Cortisol (x4), free Cortisone (x4), and Melatonin (x4). This extensive information provides a deeper dive into your hormones than conventional blood testing tends to. And can help to find the underlying cause of a complex hormone related issue.
