The DUTCH test is the most comprehensive test to evaluate your sex and stress hormones. In addition to measuring hormone levels, this test also takes into consideration metabolites (metabolites are breakdown products of these hormones) and specific nutrients (which are necessary for our body to use the hormones).
The importance of these groups of hormones is that they play a vital role in many aspects of our life if left unbalanced, they can wreak havoc in our bodies and leave us feeling anxious, tired, moody, and fatigued among many other things.
The DUTCH test is one of the most advanced and accurate hormone panels available. It uses dried urine analysis to measure hormone levels and their metabolites, so it can reveal issues that might be missed by bloodwork alone.
Unlike other tests, it doesn’t require a blood sample and can be performed in-office or from the comfort of your own home. The results will help you and your provider better understand hormonal changes that might be affecting your mood, weight, sleep, sex drive or energy, allowing for more effective functional medicine plans that are tailored to your body’s needs.

The DUTCH test measures your adrenal function. As we deal with stress throughout life our adrenal glands work to fulfil our requirements. If we do not support them properly they can become insufficient in their cortisol output increasing abdominal weight gain, and causing mood, sleep issues and tiredness.
Some women have symptoms of estrogen dominance like PMS, heavy bleeding, menstrual cramps, fibroids, and endometriosis. In estrogen dominance, women produce too much estrogen and too little progesterone and typically aren’t able to clear old estrogens out of the body. The DUTCH test will not only measure levels of estrogen and progesterone but your estrogen metabolism as well. When your estrogen metabolism is healthy you will be able to bind and clear estrogens effectively reducing symptoms of estrogen dominance.
The DUTCH test measures melatonin levels. Melatonin is produced 2 hours before bedtime helping you become relaxed and sleepy. If you are experiencing problems with sleep knowing your melatonin levels could be helpful in finding the right treatment for you.
Another reason you should use the DUTCH test is that it measures your DHEA-S levels. Your adrenal glands produce DHEA, which is known as the “feel-good” or “Vitality” hormone. Low levels can lead to fatigue, decreased muscle mass and bone density, depression, aching muscles, reduced immunity, and loss of libido.
