Saliva Tests

Saliva testing for hormone patterns

These tests use a saliva sample you collect at home, and a few also use dried urine. Most measure hormones, often at several times during the day to show how your levels rise and fall. Some also check genes that affect how you use nutrients, or immune health in your gut.

What saliva tests can check for

• Stress hormones like cortisol
• Female hormones like estrogen and progesterone
• Male hormones like testosterone
• Methylation genes that affect how you use nutrients
• Immune protection in your gut (sIgA)
