Blood Spot Testing
Blood Spot Testing
Sample Collection of the blood spots is a relatively simple and nearly painless procedure that can be done at home or by the health care practitioner.
A simple nick of the finger followed by placing blood drops on a filter card is all that is needed.
All Lab and Testing Services
The kit contains easy step-by-step instructions, skin cleansing wipes, two lancets, a filter paper on which the blood drops are collected, and a band-aid. The dry blood spot sample requires no special handling and is returned, together with a requisition form completed by the patient indicating any current hormone therapy and symptoms, to the laboratory for analysis in a prepaid return package. Blood spot samples are collected in the morning before eating or drinking. Topical hormone users should use their hormones daily as usual but avoid applying the hormones with the hands for several days prior to collection.
Other Tests in Dried Blood Spot:
In addition to the sex hormones (estradiol, progesterone, DHEA-S, and testosterone), dried blood spot testing is also offered for: morning cortisol, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), prostate-specific antigen (PSA), LH, FSH, vitamin D, IGF-1, thyroid testing (TSH, free T3, free T4, total T4, TPO antibodies, and thyroglobulin), cardiometabolic risk markers (fasting insulin, hs-CRP, HbA1c, triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and VLDL cholesterol), and toxic and nutritional elements (cadmium, mercury, lead, zinc, copper, selenium, and magnesium)

Urine Hormone Testing
This test looks at sex hormones and their metabolites, the overall diurnal pattern of free cortisol, and the total distribution of cortisol metabolites in addition to OATs, which provide insight into nutritional deficiencies, oxidative stress, gut dysbiosis, melatonin, neuroinflammation, and more.

Gut Microbiome Testing
The GI‑MAP (Microbial Assay Plus) is unique in the field of comprehensive stool testing.
Gut Microbiome Testing relies exclusively on quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) technology to detect parasites, bacteria, fungi, and more, by targeting the specific DNA of the organisms tested.

Food Sensitivities Test
The Mediator Release Test (MRT) is considered the highest standard of food sensitivity tests currently available. It’s a simple, patented blood test that identifies our body’s reactions to 140 foods and 30 food chemicals by measuring the number of mediators released and the subsequent changes in white blood cells.

Hormone Therapy for Men
Testosterone levels generally peak during adolescence and early adulthood. As you age, your testosterone level gradually declines — typically about 1% a year after age 30 or 40. For older men, it's important to determine if a low testosterone level is due to normal aging or if it is due to a disease (hypogonadism)

Thyroid Testing
Unlike conventional medicine, we conduct an extensive thyroid panel, assessing TSH, Free T4, Free T3, reverse T3, TPO antibodies, and antiTG antibodies, to gain an understanding of your thyroid health.
We also explore potential underlying issues that might impact your thyroid hormone utilization, such as stress, inflammation, and digestive disturbances.

Female Cycle Mapping
For some women, testing reproductive hormones (progesterone, estrogen, etc.) on a single day is sufficient. In other scenarios, the clinical picture cannot be properly captured without “mapping” out the hormonal pattern throughout their menstrual cycle. The expected pattern of hormones shows relatively low estrogen levels early in the cycle, a surge around ovulation and modest levels in the latter third of the cycle (the luteal phase).

Peptides
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that our body naturally produces that optimize metabolic function. They act as signaling and messenger molecules within the body, instructing other cells and molecules on what functions to perform. There are over 7,000 known peptides in our bodies, and all these different peptides have a wide range of functions, including immune system health, repair, weight loss, improved cognitive function, libido, promoting healthy muscle growth and development, and many more

Saliva Testing
Saliva testing is a non-invasive collection method where patients collect their saliva in plastic tubes in order to measure hormones like cortisol, estrogens, progesterone, and androgens.
This non-invasive saliva collection is ideal for patients because it allows them to collect their sample in the privacy of their home or office.
