Optimize Hormonal Balance for Better Mood, Energy, Sexual, and Reproductive Health
Women’s bodies depend on an intricate balance of female hormones throughout life. The Female Hormones panel helps clinicians detect and treat women’s hormonal imbalance by measuring all major female hormones in serum: estradiol (E2), testosterone, progesterone, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and sex hormone binding globulin.
A woman’s hormone balance changes in adolescence, young adult life, pregnancy, post-partum, perimenopause, and menopause. This test helps identify hormone imbalance and guide treatment at any age or stage of life. Correcting hormone imbalance can be a game-changer, giving women renewed energy, joy, restorative sleep, and healthy body weight. Often ordered as part of baseline bloodwork, the Precision Diagnostics Female Hormone profile can be used to monitor bioidentical hormone replacement therapy and it pairs well with other functional medicine laboratory tests. It is normally collected on day 19-21 of a woman’s cycle, when applicable.
