HORMONE ANALYSES – for men and women –
Testing hormones from saliva versus blood has many advantages: the sample collection is non-invasive (no needle required). Thus, it’s painless and can be done at any time. This allows you to determine the intended free, biologically active portion of hormones. That’s why hormone testing from saliva is so meaningful.
In assessing the found values, we look at the ratio between individual hormones. If hormones are imbalanced or hormone production declines, this often manifests in the symptoms mentioned below for men and women.
Hormonal Saliva Test – Women
With this test, we determine the current hormonal status in women. It provides measurements of cortisol, DHEA, estradiol, estriol, LH, FSH, progesterone, and testosterone levels.

Test execution:
In the presence of a cycle: 21st day of the cycle. When a cycle is absent: any day is possible. Tip: saliva sample collection when using transdermal (via the skin) progesterone is best done after at least 36 hours of stopping progesterone use.
Hormonal Saliva Test – Male
This test provides hormone assessment of cortisol, DHEA, estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone. In evaluating the determined hormone levels, we mainly focus on the ratio between the different hormones. If the hormones are out of balance or if hormone production significantly declines, this can manifest in depression, feelings of worthlessness, sleep disturbances, decreased libido and erection, blood pressure abnormalities, heart rhythm disturbances, forgetfulness, and weight gain.
When to use?
- Testosterone deficiency (low testosterone levels)
- Erectile dysfunction (impotence)
- Decreased libido (low sexual desire)
- Gynecomastia (excessive breast development)
- Infertility
- Hormonal imbalance due to conditions such as hypogonadism, hyperthyroidism, or hypothyroidism
- Changes in mood and energy levels, such as with depression or fatigue
It is important to take these issues seriously and seek medical advice if necessary for diagnosis and treatment.
