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.

Hormones influence everything from energy and mood to weight, sleep, skin, and long-term health — yet imbalances often go unnoticed. This in-depth guide explains how hormones work, the most common signs of imbalance, and why testing is essential for understanding your body. Learn how cortisol, thyroid hormones, estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and insulin shape your wellbeing, and discover practical steps to restore balance naturally through personalised testing, nutrition, lifestyle changes, and targeted support. This is your complete roadmap to understanding and improving your hormonal health.
