The DUTCH Test (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones) is a cutting-edge, non-invasive test designed to provide a deep and holistic view of hormone health. Unlike traditional blood tests, which offer only a snapshot of hormone levels at a single moment, the DUTCH test collects data over an extended period using dried urine samples. This allows for a more accurate and complete picture of hormone balance, metabolism, and adrenal function.

Why Choose the DUTCH Test?

  • Comprehensive Insights – Measures key hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, cortisol, and their metabolites, helping to uncover imbalances that impact mood, energy, metabolism, and reproductive health.

  • Convenient & Non-Invasive – Simply collect urine samples at home throughout the day, eliminating the need for stressful blood draws or saliva collection.

  • Metabolic Pathways & Stress Response – Goes beyond just measuring hormone levels, offering insights into how the body processes and detoxifies hormones, as well as assessing adrenal health and stress resilience.

  • Personalized Health Optimization – Helps practitioners tailor wellness plans to support hormonal harmony, energy levels, sleep, and overall well-being.

The DUTCH test is a game-changer for those seeking clarity on hormonal imbalances, whether dealing with fatigue, PMS, perimenopause, PCOS, low libido, or chronic stress. With its precision and ease, it’s a go-to solution for anyone looking to take control of their health naturally.

YOUR KEY TO HORMONE HEALTH

The DUTCH Test comes in several variations, each designed to assess different aspects of hormone health. Here’s a breakdown of the main types:

1. DUTCH COMPLETE

This is the most comprehensive hormone test, analyzing:

  • Sex Hormones & Metabolites – Estrogen (E1, E2, E3), progesterone, testosterone, and their breakdown products.

  • Adrenal Hormones – Free and metabolized cortisol and cortisone, providing insights into stress and adrenal function.

  • Melatonin – Measures sleep-related hormone production.

  • Organic Acid Markers – Identifies key nutritional and neurotransmitter markers that impact mood and energy.

Best for: A full-spectrum view of hormone health, stress response, and metabolism.

2. DUTCH PLUS

Includes everything in the DUTCH Complete, plus an advanced saliva cortisol awakening response (CAR) test. This extra layer of testing provides:

  • A real-time look at how cortisol levels change in the morning.

  • A deeper understanding of HPA-axis function (the body’s stress-response system).

Best for: Chronic stress, adrenal dysfunction, burnout, anxiety, and fatigue.

3. DUTCH CYCLE MAPPING

Tracks hormone fluctuations throughout an entire menstrual cycle by testing dried urine samples across multiple days. It provides:

  • A detailed chart of estrogen and progesterone changes over time.

  • Insights into irregular cycles, PMS, infertility, and perimenopause.

Best for: Women with cycle-related symptoms, fertility concerns, or perimenopause.

4. DUTCH SEX HORMONE METABOLITES

A simplified version of the DUTCH Complete, focusing only on:

  • Estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone levels.

  • Hormone metabolism pathways, which reveal how well the body detoxifies and eliminates hormones.

Best for: Those specifically looking to understand sex hormone balance and detox pathways.

Each DUTCH test is designed to provide actionable insights into hormone health, helping individuals and practitioners create personalized wellness strategies.
