What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing mood swings, unexplained fatigue, weight fluctuations, irregular periods, or low libido. It helps pinpoint hormonal imbalances that may be affecting your energy, emotional well-being, and metabolism. Many women use this test when they suspect their symptoms are hormone-related and want concrete answers about what's happening in their body.

How should I prepare for this test?

No biotin: 72 hours

If you use testosterone cream, avoid rubbing it into the inner elbow area for 24 hours before your blood draw as it can elevate results. If you take high-dose biotin supplements (vitamin B7), stop taking them at least 72 hours before testing as they can interfere with results. This test is for non-pregnant patients only, and you should not have any radioisotopes administered within 24 hours of your blood draw.

What's included in this test?

Estrogen, Total Estrone Dhea Sulfate Estradiol Progesterone

This comprehensive women's hormone panel evaluates estrogen (including estradiol, total estrogen, and estrone), progesterone, testosterone (free and total), and DHEA-S levels. Together, these hormones control your menstrual cycle, mood, energy levels, libido, weight management, and overall vitality. Measuring all these markers provides a complete picture of your hormonal health and can guide treatment decisions for hormone replacement therapy or identify imbalances causing your symptoms.

What happens after I get my results?
You'll receive detailed doctor notes in simple language explaining what your hormone levels mean for your mood, energy, weight, and overall health. These notes include personalized recommendations like lifestyle changes, supplement suggestions, or whether you should consider bio-identical hormone replacement therapy. You'll also get the standard lab report and can track your hormone levels over time using our trends feature to see how your interventions are working.
When will I get my results?
Your results will typically be available within 7 business days after your blood sample is collected. In some cases, if confirmation testing is required for accuracy, the turnaround time may be extended slightly. You'll receive an email notification as soon as your results are ready to view in your secure online account.
Who should consider getting this test?
This test is perfect for women experiencing unexplained mood changes, persistent fatigue, difficulty losing weight, irregular menstrual cycles, or decreased sex drive. It's also valuable for women considering or currently using bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, those in perimenopause or menopause, or anyone wanting to understand their baseline hormone levels for optimal health and wellness.
What symptoms indicate I may need this test?
Common signs include unpredictable mood swings, irritability, feeling tired all the time despite adequate sleep, unexplained weight gain or difficulty losing weight, irregular or heavy periods, night sweats, hot flashes, low libido, brain fog, and trouble sleeping. If you're experiencing several of these symptoms together, hormonal imbalance could be the underlying cause.
How can I naturally support hormone balance?
Focus on eating a balanced diet rich in healthy fats, lean protein, and fiber while limiting processed foods and sugar. Prioritize 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night and manage stress through yoga, meditation, or regular exercise. Include cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower to support estrogen metabolism, and consider reducing alcohol and caffeine intake as they can disrupt hormone balance.
What does low estrogen mean?
Low estrogen can cause symptoms like irregular or absent periods, hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, mood changes, difficulty concentrating, and decreased bone density over time. It's common during perimenopause and menopause but can also result from excessive exercise, low body weight, or certain medical conditions. Low estrogen may benefit from lifestyle changes or hormone replacement therapy depending on severity.
How often should I retest my hormone levels?
If you're starting hormone replacement therapy or making significant lifestyle changes, retest every 3-6 months to monitor how your interventions are working. Once your hormones are balanced and symptoms improve, testing every 6-12 months is typically sufficient for ongoing monitoring. If you're tracking your baseline or investigating symptoms, your healthcare provider may recommend retesting based on your initial results and symptoms.

What this means

Your estradiol levels are slightly below the optimal range. This may contribute to symptoms like mood swings, fatigue, irregular periods, or decreased libido that many women experience when estrogen is lower than ideal.

* Regular blood test results (e.g., CBC) typically start arriving the next business day after sample collection. More complex tests, such as hormone panels, may take up to 10–15 business days due to their complexity.
