NEW Hormone blood test before starting Bioidentical Hormones including physician consultation
Are you considering starting bioidentical hormone therapy (HRT), such as estrogen, progesterone or testosterone?
Then it is wise to first have your hormone levels measured with a comprehensive blood test.
With this hormone check you get insight into your natural hormone balance and discuss the results personally with a doctor.
So you start safely, substantiated and with a clear baseline.
Why hormone testing before you start bioidentical hormones?
Hormone therapy without baseline measurement is steering without baseline measurement.
With this blood test:
✔ Get an objective picture of your estradiol, progesterone, testosterone and cortisol levels
✔ Prevent you from starting based on symptoms alone
✔ Help your doctor or therapist make appropriate starting recommendations
✔ Establish a medical baseline for later monitoring
Suitable for complaints such as:
Transitional Symptoms

When do you have this hormone test done?
For women with a menstrual cycle, we recommend the blood draw 7-9 days before your expected period. This is usually the optimal phase to reliably measure progesterone and estradiol.
If there is no cycle for more than 12 months, it does not matter at what time blood is drawn.
