Androgens and Progesterones, Urine - Doctor's Data Test Kit

What is the purpose of this test?

The Androgens and Progesterones, Urine - Doctor's Data Test Kit measures key hormones and their metabolites to assess how the body processes and regulates androgens (male hormones) and progesterones. These hormones play an essential role in reproductive health, metabolism, muscle function, mood, and overall well-being in both men and women. By analyzing urine samples collected at different times, this test provides a comprehensive look at hormone balance and enzyme efficiency, helping to detect imbalances or irregular metabolism that may contribute to various health concerns.

This test is especially useful for individuals experiencing symptoms related to hormone fluctuations, such as fatigue, mood changes, weight gain, or reproductive issues. It can also be used for baseline testing, monitoring the effects of hormone replacement therapy (HRT/BHRT), or evaluating potential risks linked to hormone metabolism. By identifying patterns in androgen and progesterone activity, healthcare providers can tailor treatments to support optimal hormone function and overall health.

The Androgens and Progesterones, Urine - Doctor's Data Test Kit includes:

• Androgens:
  • 11-hydroxy-Androsterone

  • 5a-Dihydrotestosterone (DHT)
  • Androstenedione
  • Androsterone
  • Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)
  • Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate (DHEA-S)
  • Epi-Testosterone
  • Etiocholanolone
  • Testosterone (Urine)
• Progesterones:
  • 17-Hydroxyprogesterone
  • 21-Hydroxyprogesterone
  • 5a-Pregnanediol (5A-PD)
  • 5b-Pregnanediol (5B-PD)
  • 5-Pregnanetriol
  • Allopregnanolone
  • Progesterone
• Other:
  • Creatinine/day (for normalization of results)

Who should get this test?

This test may be helpful for individuals who:

• Have symptoms of hormone imbalance, such as fatigue, mood swings, or insomnia
• Experience irregular menstrual cycles, PMS, or menopausal symptoms
• Have conditions like PCOS, endometriosis, or metabolic syndrome
• Want to assess prostate health, erectile dysfunction, or loss of muscle mass
• Are undergoing hormone replacement therapy (HRT/BHRT) and need to monitor its effects
• Have concerns about weight gain, inflammation, or cognitive changes
• Experience low libido or changes in breast health
