This profile provides a window into the endocrine system, measuring Cortisol, DHEA-s, Estriol (E1), Estradiol (E2), and Estriol (E3), Progesterone and Testosterone via 4 saliva samples collected at home over the course of the day.
- Imbalances in the adrenal and sex hormones can lead to several worrisome complaints in both men and women.
- Cortisol and DHEA-s are the critical adrenal hormones that constitute a large part of our stress response. When these are elevated, feelings of anxiousness and trouble sleeping are common. When they are deficient, one may feel exhaustion and fatigue.
- The sex hormones (3 Estrogens, Progesterone and Testosterone) may be imbalanced during a woman or man’s reproductive years and as both men and women age. Having not enough or an overabundance of any of the hormones cause both menopausal and andropausal complaints to arise that can profoundly affect a patient’s quality of life.
