The DUTCH (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones) panel is an advanced hormone test that provides a detailed picture of your hormone balance, metabolism, and how your body processes hormones. Unlike simple blood tests, the DUTCH test measures hormone metabolites, giving insight into hormone production, clearance, and stress hormone patterns over the course of a day.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!What the DUTCH test measures:
- Sex Hormones (Estrogen, Progesterone, Testosterone): Tracks levels of key sex hormones and their metabolites, helping identify imbalances that can affect mood, energy, libido, weight, and overall wellness.
- Estrogen Metabolites: Provides insight into how your body processes estrogen, which is important for assessing risks related to estrogen dominance or deficiency.
- Adrenal Hormones (Cortisol & DHEA): Measures cortisol patterns throughout the day, reflecting your body’s response to stress and adrenal function. This helps identify if you have adrenal fatigue, chronic stress, or hormonal imbalances.
- Melatonin: Indicates your sleep hormone levels and circadian rhythm health.
- Hormone Metabolism: Evaluates how well your liver is processing and clearing hormones, which impacts hormone-related symptoms and risks.
