Cortisol testing helps evaluate how the body responds to stress by measuring daily hormone patterns linked to energy, sleep, mood, and immune balance. Through saliva and blood spot methods, clinicians can identify adrenal and HPA-axis imbalances early, enabling more personalized strategies to address fatigue, burnout, and stress-related health concerns.

Androgen metabolite testing provides deeper insight into how the body produces, converts, and eliminates hormones such as testosterone and DHT. By analyzing urine metabolites rather than single hormone levels, clinicians gain a more complete picture of hormonal balance, helping guide personalized treatment, monitor therapy effectiveness, and detect imbalances linked to conditions like PCOS, acne, hair changes, and metabolic issues.

A comprehensive guide to understanding hormone health—from adrenal function and thyroid balance to menopause, andropause, metabolism, and reproductive wellness. Learn how hormonal imbalances develop, how they affect energy, mood, weight, and overall wellbeing, and how modern testing methods like saliva, blood spot, and bioidentical therapies can support personalised health and long-term vitality.
