Preventative Medicine & Diagnostic Testing

Female Hormone Panel Test (eFHP)

This test is non-invasive and performed over the course of the menstrual cycle. Eleven saliva samples are collected over different days of the cycle to assess estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and DHEA levels.

We use this test to look for:

  • Luteal Phase Defects
  • Double Ovulation
  • Early Ovulation
  • No Ovulation
  • Early Pregnancy Problems
  • Endometriosis
  • Estrogen and/or Progesterone Dominance
  • FSH Surges
  • LH Surges
  • Corpus Luteum Response
  • Potential Cystic Ovaries

Male Hormone Panel Test (eMHP)

This test is non-invasive and involves a saliva sample. It tests for DHEA, Androstenedione, Testosterone, Dihydrotestosterone, Estrone, Progesterone, FSH, and LH levels.

We use this test to look for:

  • Low Sperm Count
  • Low Sperm Motility
  • Morphology Problems
  • Low Libido
  • Erectile Dysfunction

Adrenal Stress Index (ASI) Test

This test measures Cortisol, DHEA, Insulin, Gliadin Antibodies, Total Salivary SigA, and 17-Hydroxyprogesterone during a circadian cycle. This test is useful in the evaluation of hypothalamic-adrenal function and the impact that stress has had on it.

Hair Sample Test

This test involves a sample of hair that is taken from the nape of the neck or the pubic region. This test shows deficiency or excess in mineral and vitamin concentrations as well as toxic metals that are present in the body.

We use this test to look for:

  • Estrogen Dominance
  • Copper Toxicity
  • Mercury Toxicity
  • Minerals that are not being absorbed
  • Glucose Issues
  • Adrenal Function
