Sleep Stress Profile
This advanced hormone testing was developed to improve available hormone testing options. It offers the most extensive profile of sex and adrenal hormones along with their metabolites. Additionally, the daily (diurnal) pattern of free cortisol is included, along with melatonin (6OHMS), 8-OHdG and six organic acids. This unique combination of clinical information is not available by any other method.

4 Urine Samples Collection
DUTCH Complete
DUTCH Sex Hormone Metabolites
DUTCH Adrenal
DUTCH OATs (Organic Acids)
The DUTCH Test analyzes a patient's hormone levels in depth, providing you with all the information you need for a baseline hormone evaluation or monitoring hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
This useful tool can be used by healthcare providers to maximize hormone health and address hormone-related symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, hair loss, and mood changes.
Testing can be a bit difficult. Please look at the instructions thoroughly.
In addition to OATs, this test examines sex hormones and their metabolites, the overall diurnal pattern of free cortisol, and the total and distribution of cortisol metabolites.

There are several ways to test for hormones (saliva, serum and urine), but the state-of-the-art method is through saliva. This is because only the active portions of hormones are measured, and it is these portions that determine how individuals feel. So, if your patient is seeking bio-identical hormone replacement (BHRT), you will need to know active hormone levels. In addition, if using a topical (transdermal) hormone preparation for treatment, saliva testing is the most accurate tool to measure and monitor hormone status.

Most Advanced Urine Hormone Testing
This test analyzes sex hormones and their metabolites, the overall diurnal pattern of free cortisol, and the total and distribution of cortisol metabolites, in addition to OATs, which provide information on nutritional inadequacies, oxidative stress, gut dysbiosis, melatonin, neuroinflammation, and more.
Patients collect just 4 or 5 dried urine samples over a 24-hour period. Dried specimen shipments are convenient. Dried samples are stable for several weeks.
This testing methods go through a rigorous validation process to verify accuracy, recovery, and linearity. We pride ourselves in relentlessly pursuing the most accurate and precise techniques available for testing.
