What is the purpose of this test?
The IgE Hormones Comprehensive Plus Profile, Saliva - Mosaic Diagnostics Test Kit is designed to help identify hormonal imbalances by measuring key hormones in the body, including both sex and adrenal hormones. Hormonal imbalances can lead to various physical and mental health issues such as fatigue, anxiety, weight gain, mood swings, and more. By testing saliva for active (bioavailable) hormones, this test provides more accurate results than traditional blood tests, which often measure bound hormones that are not as readily active in the body.
Hormones regulate many bodily functions, and imbalances can disrupt a person's health in significant ways. The test measures hormones like estradiol, estrone, testosterone, progesterone, cortisol, and DHEA, offering a comprehensive view of hormone health. With this information, healthcare providers can customize treatments, such as hormone replacement therapy or nutritional adjustments, to help individuals achieve hormonal balance and alleviate symptoms.

The first saliva sample must be collected at least 30 minutes after awakening—set a timer if needed. Do not take supplements until all four samples have been collected, eat or drink anything for 1 hour before collection, brush, floss, or have dental work done 30 minutes prior, consume caffeine, or use "anti-aging" creams. Before each sample, wash hands and rinse the mouth with water, then wait 10 minutes before collecting to prevent dilution. Cosmetics may be used, but should not interfere with sample collection.
