Salivary Hormone Testing

Female Salivary Hormone Panels: For women aged 12-60 years old. Salivary hormone testing uncovers true biological hormonal imbalances which often remain unidentified by conventional blood hormone testing. Several hormones are tested to identify where the imbalance lies – these include: Estrogen, Progesterone, DHEA-s, Cortisol, and Testosterone.

Male Salivary Hormone Panels: For men aged 12-60 years old. Salivary male hormone panels are capable of unconvering the imabalances in male hormones. Clinically, you may be experiencing symptoms of decreased libido, fatigue, pre-mature ageing, decreased muscle or bone mass.

Individual Salivary Hormone Measurements: DHEA-s, Estradiol, Estriol, Estrone, Progesterone, Cortisol, and Testosterone. Individual salivary hormone testing is indicated in many conditions, including, but not limited to: infertility, weight gain, fatigue, osteoporosis, decreased libido, insomnia, chronic pain, depression, irritability, and various hormone-dependant cancers.

Complete Thyroid Assessment

A urine sample is collected to identify the root cause of your thyroid symptoms. Clinical symptoms of hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism are seldomly revealed by conventional blood tests of free-T4 and TSH levels.

Bone Resorption Tests

A urinary test can be preformed to quantify the degree of bone loss. Bone breakdown products are measured from a urine sample. This test is used to gauge the effectiveness of conventional (Fosamax) and naturopathic (nutrients) treatment in slowing or reversing your bone loss.
