Menopause Hormone Testing

If you’re like us, you get stuck symptom stacking - treating the brain fog… and then the insomnia pops up, so you deal with that… but now you’re bloated… so you fix that, and then the mood swings knock you sideways… (and on and on it goes with the other 45 common symptoms of menopause!)

Your bathroom shelf and your bank account certainly feel the strain, but what else are you supposed to do when your doctor tells you that it’s ‘normal’ ?

So, now, you’re still dealing with symptoms, AND you’ve spent a ton of money on supplements or “cures” that don’t do much.

And there is still that looming question… What is actually going on inside your body to be causing all these issues?

It goes a little like this...

Melatonin, Vitamin E, Coconut Oil, Prescriptions 1, 2, 3...
Oh, but none of those will help with hot flashes.
Also, the melatonin has now stopped working so you need to find a new way to get some sleep.
What's that? You forgot to pick up the prescription your doctor randomly prescribed?
Don't worry, it won't help the brain fog anyway!
So you start trying a whole new regimen of products and the cycle begins again.

Let's face it, you already know it's probably not a good idea to try 598105 new things to see what might work. Aside from the cost and the confusion, you know it's not great for your body.

Your endocrine system is made up of all the body's different hormones, and it regulates all biological processes in the body from conception through adulthood and into old age, including the development of the brain and nervous system, the growth and function of the reproductive system, as well as the metabolism and blood sugar.

Messing with your hormones can be a dangerous game, meaning you fix one problem only to trigger another one... {diagrams}

Part of the problem is that traditional testing isn't very useful. Blood tests certainly sound serious... but the information they give you isn't all that helpful.

Saliva tests are uniquely suited to measuring hormones; because they filter out unusable hormones, the results show you the amount of active hormones that your body can actually use.

This means you can see what hormones your body is working with - something incredibly valuable for both establishing your baseline values, AND tracking your hormone levels if you are already using some form of topical hormone treatment.

With just four saliva samples, you will have the answers you need about your hormone profile.

But we don’t stop there - our hormone tests are made with menopausal women in mind - meaning we give you your hormone results, optimal hormone ranges (not ‘normal’), and - we give you established supplementation guidelines.

We don’t just give you a bunch of random numbers -you can see where you are, ideal hormone ranges, and your options to getting there.

You don’t need a medical degree to understand our results, but, if you’re ever confused, our team is there to help along the way, with blogs, scientific research, and menopausal women (yes, our team!) just a phone call away.

Your Doctor says your hormone levels are "normal"... but you still feel terrible? That's because "normal" after menopause = low hormone levels of the crucial hormones you need to feel good.

Our specialized reports go beyond "normal." You'll get well-established supplementation ranges for each hormone, so you have the knowledge you need to take control of your health. Our reports give you the ability to supplement with precision, in the optimal hormone ranges you need.

One-size fits all solutions can not only be useless, but harmful. The more you know your particular hormone profile, the better you can customize solutions that fit your needs. Our Hormone Panel gives you back control. You deserve to not only know, but understand, your hormone levels, and what they might mean for your menopause. Life, and menopause, is better when you’re in the driving seat.

Menopause symptoms are generally caused by insufficient hormone levels — and often several different hormones get out of balance and leave us feeling terrible. But, many of us don't get taught about hormones, or get help when they become imbalanced. Our hormone profile looks at:

Estriol: an estrogen vital for skin, elasticity, collagen, & vaginal health.
Estradiol: an estrogen important for bone, memory, serotonin, glucose transport into the brain, nerve growth factor, & improving insulin sensitivity.
Estrone: an estradiol metabolite, it is important to know its not getting too high.
Progesterone: this helps with sleep, reduces cholesterol, diuretic, supports thyroid, helps with fat burning, and mood regulation.
Testosterone: important for brain health, strength and vitality, libido, orgasm, bone density.
DHEA: a precursor hormone needed for stress management motivation, well being, & immune function memory.

But, what is linked to what? There are many symptoms that can plague you post-menopause, as our chart below shows. The colored icons indicate which hormones may be the culprit. So, what menopause symptoms are bothering YOU?

This is data with depth. Useful, usable reports that give you the information you need to make changes. Our reports take hormone testing, and make it functional for YOU.

With our reports you can:

Know how many bioavailable hormones you currently have
Know where your levels are in relation to what is optimal
Know what supplementation levels you can use
Know what hormones you need to supplement with

Your Hormone Profile is as Unique as Your Fingerprint. One-size fits all solutions can not only be useless, but harmful. You no longer have to be left in the dark with complicated charts or guesswork - with our reporting, we make understanding your hormones (and your menopause) as easy as A, B, C.

Hormone testing doesn't have to hurt... literally and figuratively.

Imagine you go to a bakery, and you want to buy a cake. They have 100 cakes in the bakery, but, half the cakes in the display are already reserved. Now, this is easy math, but for hormones, this highlights the difference between blood (serum) and saliva tests. Blood tests will show you that you have '100 cakes' - even though half of those are not bioavailable. Saliva tests will show you that, in fact, there are only '50 cakes' that your body can use.

Blood testing is great for some stuff, but NOT for hormones. Saliva really is the best method to test the active/bioavailable portion of hormones, which are reflective of tissue levels. Anyone considering using bio-identical hormone replacement (BHRT), will want to know active hormone levels. In addition, if you are using a topical (skin applied) hormone preparation for treatment, saliva testing is the most accurate tool to measure and monitor hormone status.

Ditch the needles and pinpricks, and let saliva give you the answers you need!

Imagine you're at a party, mingling with a crowd of 50 attractive men. But wait, a closer look reveals 33 of them are sporting wedding bands. That means only 17 are truly up for grabs.

Blood tests for hormones work similarly. They measure the total amount of estrogen in your body, like counting all the men at the party. But just like not all those men are available, not all that estrogen is active or usable.

Saliva tests, on the other hand, are like having a special pass that filters out the married guys. They only measure the active estrogen, the kind your body can actually put to good use.

So, if you're looking for a true picture of your hormonal status, saliva testing is the way to go. It's especially important for those considering bio-identical hormone replacement (BHRT) or using topical hormone treatments.

So, ditch the needles and embrace the spit! Saliva testing is your key to unlocking the secrets of your hormones.
