The Benefits of Urine Hormone Testing:

First-Morning-Void OR 24-hour urine collection
These simple, at-home collection options offer the advantage of a time average, effectively
integrating spikes that may occur in these hormones over time.
Measures the free, bio-available fraction of hormones
Urinary testing measures the portion of hormones that are active in the body.
Measures the metabolites of these important steroid hormones
These metabolites contribute to provide a robust analysis of hormonal excess or deficiency,
and help to assess the adequacy and safety of hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
Anabolic/Catabolic Balance (ACB)
Treatment
Therapy is directed at the source of the abnormality, which may include:
• HRT – estrogen, progesterone, androgens, thyroid, cortisol, etc.
• Methylation support - S-adenosyl-methionine (SAMe), B vitamins
• Estrogen Metabolism support - Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and/or Diindolemethane (DIM)

Further treatments may be indicated by specific genomic testing (EstroGenomics™), which
identifies modifiable genetic influences that can impair healthy hormone metabolism.
