Female Hormone Profile Basic Saliva Test Kit

At-home saliva test measuring core female hormones from a single collection.

What this test measures

Oestradiol, progesterone and testosterone in a single saliva sample.

Why these markers matter

Saliva measures the unbound fraction of these hormones — the portion not attached to carrier proteins. That's a different question from what a blood test answers, and practitioners choose between them depending on what they're looking at. Cycle timing matters more than almost anything else here. Oestradiol and progesterone move considerably across a menstrual cycle. If you're cycling, the collection day changes what the result means — ask your practitioner which day before you collect.

What you get

Kit posted to you with instructions and return packaging. Results in your private dashboard, typically around two weeks after the lab receives your sample.

Before you collect

Collect on the cycle day your practitioner specifies. Collect before eating, drinking or brushing teeth. Hormonal contraception and hormone therapy affect results.

Who this suits

Women working with a practitioner on hormone questions who want a straightforward first look.
