DUTCH
dried urine test for comprehensive hormones
Millions of women suffer from hormonal imbalances. Whether fatigue, low libido, premenstrual symptoms (PMS), mood swings, weight gain, heavy painful periods or depression, these symptoms can lead to more serious problems if misdiagnosed. Identifying the root cause of chronic health issues is certainly correctable, but only if properly identified.
​
The DUTCH Test was created to provide insight into many of these concerns, working to deliver the most complete assessment of sex and adrenal hormones, along with their metabolites, in one easy to administer test.
The DUTCH test is a simple at-home urine test that can be done from anywhere.
The DUTCH test is great for baseline measurements of women with hormonal imbalances.
​
After utilizing the DUTCH Test, you will be able to work with me to continue to track and evaluate hormone levels, ensuring they are at their optimum balance.

How to order
DUTCH testing needs to be ordered and interpreted by a DUTCH approved practitioner.
​
I have several packages that include the DUTCH test or it may be something that we discuss and find appropriate for you at your initial consult.
​
After we order the DUTCH test for you, you will receive your test kit in the mail with instructions on how to collect your samples and return them in the reply-paid envelope. Your sample will be sent to the Precision Analytical Laboratory in America with the results arriving in approx 4 weeks.
​
Test results will then be sent to me, and we will reschedule a consult to go over those results (we share a screen via zoom so we walk through these visually together) and to adapt or create your treatment plan taking into account your results and all the other information we have gathered about you.
