This test is ideal if you're experiencing chronic fatigue, unexplained weight changes, irregular periods, mood swings, or concerns about your hormone balance. It provides a comprehensive evaluation of your reproductive hormones, thyroid function, metabolic health, and stress markers to identify underlying causes of persistent tiredness and hormonal symptoms. Many women use this panel when they suspect hormonal imbalances are affecting their energy, weight, fertility, or overall well-being but want concrete answers.
You should fast for 12-14 hours before your blood draw, consuming only water during this time. If you're taking high-dose biotin supplements (over 5 mg/day), stop taking them at least 72 hours before testing as they can interfere with results. Avoid applying testosterone or hormone creams to your inner arm area for 24 hours before the test, and if you're on prednisone or prednisolone, discuss timing with your healthcare provider as these medications can affect cortisol results.
This comprehensive panel evaluates your reproductive hormones including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA-S, FSH, LH, and SHBG to assess fertility and hormonal balance. It checks thyroid function through TSH, Free T3, and Free T4 to identify causes of fatigue and weight changes, measures cortisol and insulin for stress and metabolic health, and includes complete blood count, metabolic panel, lipid panel, and key nutrients like Vitamin D, ferritin, and homocysteine. Together, these measurements provide a complete picture of hormonal, metabolic, cardiovascular, and nutritional factors affecting your energy, mood, weight, and overall vitality.
What this means
Your cortisol level is elevated above the optimal range, which may indicate your body is experiencing chronic stress. High cortisol can contribute to fatigue, difficulty sleeping, weight gain especially around your midsection, mood changes, and irregular periods. While temporary stress is normal, persistently elevated cortisol may benefit from stress management strategies.
Recommended actions
Practice daily stress-reduction techniques like meditation, deep breathing, or yoga
Prioritize 7-9 hours of quality sleep and establish a consistent bedtime routine
Reduce caffeine intake, especially in the afternoon and evening
Consider retesting in 6-8 weeks after implementing stress management changes
