The Comprehensive Male Saliva Hormone Profile (LC-MS/MS) is a comprehensive at-home hormone testing kit designed to measure eight key hormones that influence energy, mood, metabolism, libido, sleep, and stress in men. Using an easy saliva collection method, this non-invasive test provides accurate insights into hormone balance and adrenal function, helping men take control of their hormonal health from the comfort of home.

What the Test Measures

• Testosterone (T): The main male hormone that supports muscle growth, bone strength, libido, mood, and vitality.
• Oestradiol (E2): A form of oestrogen in men that supports bone density, brain health, and cardiovascular balance.
• DHEAS (DS): A precursor to testosterone, produced by the adrenal glands, essential for energy and hormonal stability.
• Progesterone (Pg): Helps balance oestrogen levels, supports mental clarity, and promotes calmness and focus.
• Cortisol Morning (C): Assesses your morning stress response and energy regulation.
• Cortisol Noon (C): Evaluates daytime adrenal function and stress adaptability.
• Cortisol Evening (C): Indicates how effectively your body prepares for rest.
• Cortisol Night (C): Measures night-time cortisol to assess sleep quality and recovery.

Eight hormones: testosterone (T), oestradiol (E2), DHEAS (DS), progesterone (Pg), and cortisol at morning, noon, evening, and night.

Who should use this test?
Men with low energy, poor sleep, reduced libido, weight gain, mood changes, high stress, or suspected testosterone or cortisol imbalance.

How do I collect samples?
Follow the kit guide. Collect saliva at the specified times. Avoid eating, drinking, gum, and brushing teeth for 30 minutes before each sample.

How long do results take?
Results are delivered within 3–5 working days after the lab receives the samples.

Are laboratory fees included?
Yes. The listed price includes full laboratory analysis.

Will a specialist review my results?
Yes. A PhD Hormone Specialist provides comments and recommendations.

Why measure cortisol four times a day?
To map the diurnal cortisol curve and assess circadian rhythm and stress response.

What is the kit shelf life?
12 months from purchase if unopened and stored as directed.

Can medications or supplements affect results?
Yes. Hormones, steroids, and some supplements can alter results. Do not change any medication without medical advice.

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.
