Urine Hormone
Metabolite Testing
Insight into
whether
your body
is safely
processing
hormones
2.
Your body is constantly
making a wide variety
of hormones, including
estrogen, progesterone,
testosterone, cortisol
& melatonin
Once used, those
hormones are broken
down as by-products
& excreted in urine
3.
How those hormones are
broken down & processed
in your body can impact
your long-term health
4.
This is important
because some
hormone metabolites
can be extremely
harmful when
hormones don’t
break down
properly
5.
Putting us at
risk for certain
diseases, like
breast cancer
or prostate
cancer
6.
Hormones you should know about
for urine metabolite testing
7.
ESTROGENS –
Your body makes
several different
estrogen hormones –
Estrone, Estradiol &
Estriol. Urine metabolite
testing reveals the
by-products of those
hormones and whether
they’re being broken
down safely.
8.
ANDROGENS –
Your body also
makes several
different androgen
hormones – like
Testosterone &
DHEA. Urine
metabolite testing
reveals the by-
products of those
hormones and
whether they’re
breaking down
safely.
9.
BPA –
Exposure to
Bisphenol A,
which is linked
to brain, behavior
& health concerns
for children &
adults, can be
measured by urine
metabolite testing
10.
Diurnal Cortisol –
Assessing the
body’s 24-hour
cortisol pattern
is key to a better
understanding of
adrenal function
& helps get to
the root of stress-
related health
issues
11.
Diurnal Melatonin –
Assessing the body’s
24-hour melatonin
pattern can help
reveal sleep-related
health issues
12.
If you’re
concerned about
how your body
is processing
hormones,
there are steps
you can take
13.

you. Click here for help finding a doctor.
