The Comprehensive Female Saliva Hormone Profile (LC-MS/MS) is a comprehensive at-home saliva hormone test that measures eight key hormones essential for a woman's health, energy, fertility, and emotional well-being. This accurate and non-invasive test provides valuable insight into your body's hormonal balance, stress levels, and reproductive function — all from the comfort of your home.

What the Test Measures

• Oestradiol (E2): The main form of oestrogen produced by the ovaries. It regulates the menstrual cycle, supports bone and heart health, and influences mood.
• Testosterone (T): Present in small amounts in women, it supports libido, muscle tone, and energy levels.
• DHEAS (DS): A precursor to oestrogen and testosterone, produced by the adrenal glands. It reflects adrenal and hormone balance.
• Progesterone (Pg): Produced after ovulation, it regulates the menstrual cycle, supports fertility, and promotes calmness.
• Cortisol (Morning, Noon, Evening, Night): The stress hormone measured at four points during the day to assess adrenal health and circadian rhythm.

Why Test Your Hormones

Hormonal imbalances can affect physical, mental, and reproductive health. This test helps detect issues early and supports informed decisions about treatment, lifestyle, or hormone therapy.

Common Symptoms of Hormonal Imbalance in Women:

• Irregular periods or infertility
• Hot flushes or night sweats
• Mood swings or depression
• Fatigue and low energy
• Low libido or vaginal dryness
• Weight gain, especially around the waist
• Brain fog or memory issues
• Trouble sleeping or anxiety

Key Benefits

• Holistic Assessment: Evaluates reproductive and adrenal hormones together for a complete view of hormonal health.
• Early Detection: Identifies imbalances before they progress to chronic issues.
• Personalised Insights: Includes a hormone specialist's written interpretation and actionable recommendations.
• Stress Evaluation: Cortisol readings at four intervals reveal your stress pattern and adrenal resilience.
• Supports HRT Monitoring: Helps assess whether hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is maintaining optimal levels.
• Non-Invasive and Convenient: No blood tests or clinic appointments — just simple saliva collection at home.

What's the Difference Between Each Testing Method?

Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA) — antibody/antigen-based technology with moderate specificity and sensitivity, low cost, not ideal for complex hormone analysis.

Electrochemiluminescence (ECLIA) — improved specificity and sensitivity, commonly used for serum hormone analysis, but not ideal for topical hormone therapies.

Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) — gold standard for high sensitivity/specificity, extended linear range, and complex hormone analysis.
