The Women Advanced Hormone, Cholesterol and Toxic Elements Test is a comprehensive at-home female health screening designed to assess hormone balance, fertility markers, thyroid health, adrenal function, cardiovascular risk factors, vitamin D levels, metabolic health, and toxic element exposure.
Using a simple finger-prick blood spot sample collected from home, this advanced female wellness profile measures 33 essential biomarkers linked to energy, mood, fertility, menstrual health, metabolism, stress response, inflammation, weight management, thyroid function, and long-term wellbeing.
This comprehensive panel helps identify hidden hormonal imbalances, thyroid dysfunction, adrenal stress, insulin resistance, nutrient deficiencies, inflammation, and exposure to toxic heavy metals such as mercury and cadmium.
Suitable for women of all ages, including those experiencing PMS, fertility concerns, PCOS symptoms, perimenopause, menopause symptoms, fatigue, mood changes, or unexplained health symptoms.

Why Is Hormone Balance Important?
Hormones regulate nearly every aspect of female health, including menstrual cycles, fertility and ovulation, mood and emotional wellbeing, energy production, sleep quality, metabolism and weight balance, libido and sexual health, brain function and concentration, thyroid function, and cardiovascular health.
Common Symptoms of Hormonal Imbalance in Women
You may benefit from this test if you experience fatigue or burnout, mood swings, anxiety or depression, brain fog, poor concentration, irregular menstrual cycles, PMS or PMDD symptoms, fertility concerns, weight gain, hot flashes, night sweats, low libido, sleep disturbances, hair thinning, water retention, low stamina, stress intolerance, memory lapses, hormonal acne, PCOS symptoms, or menopause/perimenopause symptoms.
Female Fertility and AMH Testing
AMH is one of the most important fertility markers and helps assess ovarian reserve — the remaining supply of eggs within the ovaries. AMH testing may help evaluate fertility potential, assess ovarian function, support fertility treatment planning, and provide insight into PCOS or early menopause.
Estrogen and Progesterone Balance
Healthy estrogen and progesterone balance is essential for menstrual regularity, fertility, mood stability, breast health, sleep quality, and weight balance.
Testosterone and SHBG in Women
Women also require healthy testosterone levels for energy, libido, muscle strength, motivation, and mental clarity. SHBG helps regulate hormone bioavailability and provides additional insight into hormone balance.
Adrenal Health and Cortisol
Cortisol is the body’s primary stress hormone. DHEA-S testing also helps assess adrenal gland function and hormone production.
Thyroid Health and Metabolism
This test includes a comprehensive thyroid profile to help assess hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, autoimmune thyroid disease, thyroid conversion issues, and iodine-related thyroid dysfunction.
Cholesterol, Insulin and Cardiovascular Health
HbA1c and fasting insulin testing may help identify blood sugar imbalance, metabolic dysfunction, prediabetes risk, and insulin resistance. hs-CRP testing provides insight into inflammation and cardiovascular health risk.
Heavy Metals and Essential Minerals
Heavy metals and mineral imbalances may affect hormone production, thyroid health, energy levels, immune function, and mood and cognition.
Vitamin D Testing
Vitamin D plays a crucial role in immune health, bone strength, hormonal health, mood regulation, and cardiovascular health.
