We offer a wide range of DUTCH (dried urine test for comprehensive hormones) tests.
The Advanced Adrenal Assessment is a urine test assessing the following hormones:
Daily free cortisol pattern (4)
Daily free cortisone pattern (4)
Cortisol metabolites (a-THF, b-THF)
Cortisone metabolites (b-THE)
DHEAst
Why Use the DUTCH Adrenal Assessment?
Comprehensive Cortisol Testing
Unlike traditional blood tests, which provide a single snapshot, the DUTCH test measures free cortisol and cortisol metabolites over a full day, giving a clearer picture of adrenal function.
It assesses the natural cortisol rhythm (morning, afternoon, evening, and night), helping to detect adrenal dysfunction, including adrenal fatigue or overproduction.
Measures Key Adrenal Hormones
Cortisol & Cortisone (active & inactive forms) to assess stress response.
DHEA & DHEA-S (precursors to sex hormones) for insight into energy, aging, and hormone balance.
Metabolites to understand how the body is processing and eliminating these hormones.
Ideal for Stress & Fatigue Cases
Helps identify whether stress is leading to adrenal exhaustion (low cortisol) or chronic stress response (high cortisol).
Beneficial for those with burnout, chronic fatigue, insomnia, anxiety, or inflammation.
More Convenient and Accurate Than Saliva or Blood Tests
Non-invasive: Uses dried urine samples collected at home.
More accurate than saliva for cortisol metabolites and provides a broader hormone picture than blood tests.
Useful for Hormone & Sleep Issues
Identifies imbalances that contribute to hormonal disorders, perimenopause, menopause, and sleep disturbances.
Evaluates melatonin levels, which affect sleep quality.
This test provides a detailed look at adrenal health, helping guide treatment plans for stress management, hormone balance, and overall well-being.
Who Can Benefit from the DUTCH Adrenal Test?
Individuals with chronic stress, anxiety, or depression.
Those experiencing unexplained fatigue or burnout.
People struggling with insomnia or poor sleep patterns.
Those with hormonal imbalances (PCOS, menopause, low libido).
Individuals with chronic pain or inflammation.
