Hormones Tested:

Progesterone including b-pregnanediol and a-pregnanediol. The symptoms associated with progesterone are related to pregnancy and fertility, anovulation, luteal phase defect, high prolactin, being underweight, hypothyroid, and birth control use including the hormonal IUD (Mirena).

Estrogens and metabolites including estrone, estradiol, estriol, 2-OH E1, 4-OH E1, and many more. PCOS, inflammation, birth control use, ovarian failure, menopause, being underweight, PMS, fibroids, ovarian cysts, and cystic acne can be implicated with high or low estrogens.

Androgens and metabolites including DHEA-S, Androsterone, which can be associated with aging, weight loss, medications.

Etiocholanolone, Testosterone, 5a-DHT, and many more, can be associated with obesity, libido, aging, PCOS.

Daily free cortisol and cortisone and cortisol metabolites, which can be implicated in fatigue, depression, insomnia, fibromyalgia, anxiety, inflammation, and more.

Nutritional Organic Acids Tested:

Methylmalonate (MMA) to see if there is B12 deficiency, and can be associated with fatigue, brain fog, memory problems, muscle weakness, unsteady gait, numbness, tingling, depression, migraines/headaches, and low blood pressure.

Xanthurenate is a marker for vitamin B6 that can be implicated in mood changes, irritability, anxiety, depression, confusion, muscle pains, low energy, or fatigue.

Pyroglutamate is the marker tested for glutathione, and its levels can be associated with detoxification, protecting against cancer, anti-aging, heart problems, and brain diseases.

Vanillmandelate is a metabolite to show if there are issues with the adrenal gland because if this marker is low, then norepinephrine and epinephrine are also low, and they are released by the adrenal gland.

Homovanillate is a metabolite of dopamine, and if low, then patients report fatigue, low motivation, depression, and addiction.

5HIAAA is a metabolite of serotonin and can be associated with fatigue and depression.
