Saliva hormone test assessing stress management via cortisol and DHEA-S levels.

Additional Information

This adrenal fatigue test measures cortisol and DHEA-S, key hormones in stress response. Cortisol's daily fluctuation is analyzed through four saliva samples, revealing your body's cortisol rhythm. Imbalances between cortisol and DHEA-S, often caused by prolonged stress, can impact health. This test helps identify such imbalances and their potential effects on energy, immunity, and overall well-being.

Biomarkers Tested (7)

Cortisol Daily Total (ng/mL)
A steroid hormone produced by the adrenal gland in response to stress. The hormone is secreted in a daily pattern rising in the early morning, peaking around 7am, and declining in the evening.
Cortisol Morning (ng/mL)
Cortisol levels are generally high in the morning as we wake from a prolonged period of sleep, with an increase of up to 50% in the first half an hour after waking. This is known as the ‘cortisol awakening response’.
Cortisol Midday (ng/mL)
As the day progresses cortisol levels naturally begin to drop in a fairly constant and regular fashion that is termed a diurnal rhythm, ending up as low in the late evening.
Cortisol Afternoon (ng/mL)
As the day progresses cortisol levels naturally begin to drop in a fairly constant and regular fashion that is termed a diurnal rhythm, ending up as low in the late evening.
Cortisol Evening (ng/mL)
Cortisol levels drop very low in the evening and during the early phase of sleep which allows the body to keep a regular sleeping pattern.
DHEAS (µg/dL)
Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands that serves as a precursor to sex hormones. Abnormal levels can indicate adrenal or endocrine disorders.
DHEA-S/Cortisol Ratio (Ratio)
Low DHEA relative to cortisol has been linked to increased inflammation, suppressed immune function, hyperglycaemia, as well as impaired detoxification, skeletal health and cognitive function.
