Female/Male Saliva Profile III by ZRT

Female/Male Saliva Profile I with 3 additional collections throughout the day to provide a complete evaluation of diurnal adrenal function.

Saliva Profile III Includes 8 Tests:

• Estradiol (E2):
• Progesterone (Pg):
• Testosterone (T):
• DHEA-S (DS): An adrenal gland hormone.
• Diurnal Cortisol (C x 4) Morning, Noon, Evening, & Night Levels: An adrenal gland hormone.

Saliva testing can help:

• Determine if you would benefit from hormone supplementation (i.e. clinically low or sub-optimal levels).
• Track treatment progress: Monitor your hormone levels during supplementation to ensure you have adequate levels without excess.

What should I expect after I send in my test? Your results are returned to you within 5 to 7 business days from the date ZRT receives your sample. The test report includes:

• A graph showing where your hormone levels fall within set ranges. Levels can be either within or out of normal range.
• A second graph detailing the symptoms you listed on your self-evaluation form. Symptoms are grouped according to the indicated category of hormonal imbalance. Symptoms are also correlated with the hormone levels identified through ZRT testing.
• A comment field providing an individualized review of your hormone evaluation.

Contains: 1 Saliva Test Kit (Saliva). Includes a pre-paid UPS-Ground shipping label and envelope to return your specimen to ZRT Labs [ZRT labs is located in Oregon].
