Female Basic Hormone + Stress Cycle + Thyroid by Holistic Health Partners
Testing female reproductive hormones in saliva, including Estradiol, Progesterone, Testosterone, DHEAs and adding in cortisol provides accurate, non-invasive insights into hormonal balance. Saliva testing reflects the bioavailable, active form of these hormones, offering a real-time snapshot of hormonal activity. This method is beneficial for diagnosing menstrual irregularities, menopausal transitions, and other hormonal imbalances. Understanding these hormone levels supports personalized interventions like lifestyle changes, dietary adjustments, and targeted therapies. Regular monitoring helps manage symptoms such as mood swings, fatigue, weight gain, and low libido, while optimizing fertility, bone health, and cognitive function. It also tracks the effectiveness of hormone replacement therapy.
Stress Cycle:
Adding a diurnal cortisol curve saliva test to the female hormone test provides comprehensive insights into adrenal function and stress response. By measuring cortisol levels at multiple points throughout the day, this test reveals patterns of adrenal health and stress management. Understanding cortisol fluctuations helps identify issues like adrenal fatigue or chronic stress, which can impact hormonal balance, mood, energy, and overall health. Integrating cortisol testing with female hormone analysis offers a holistic view of the endocrine system, enabling personalized strategies to optimize stress management, hormone balance, and overall well-being, ensuring women achieve their health goals effectively.
Additional Values Tested: Cortisol X4
Thyroid:
Adding basic thyroid function testing, including TSH, fT3, fT4, and TPOab, to the female hormone test provides a comprehensive understanding of overall endocrine health. Evaluating these thyroid markers alongside female reproductive hormones helps identify imbalances affecting metabolism, energy levels, and mood. TPOab testing can detect autoimmune thyroid conditions like Hashimoto's disease. Thyroid dysfunction can exacerbate symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, and menstrual irregularities. Integrating thyroid testing allows for early detection of hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism, enabling targeted interventions. This combined approach supports optimal hormone balance, improves energy and mood, and enhances overall well-being, ensuring women achieve their health goals more effectively.
Additional Values Tested: TSH, fT3, fT4, TPOab
