These may include SALIVA, URINE and BLOOD testing to assess ADRENAL, THYROID and SEX HORMONES for cycling females, perimenopausal and menopausal females, as well as males.
Hormones are essential chemical messenger which regulate routine processes in the body.
These Advanced tests measure levels of important REPRODUCTIVE and METABOLIC hormones in the body that relate to ENERGY, WEIGHT, WATER RETENTION, MUSCLE LOSS OR GAIN, SLEEP, MOOD and COGNITIVE FUNCTION.
The primary benefit of SALIVARY TESTING is that these hormones are UNCONJUGATED and/or BIOAVAILABLE rather than the total, or protein bound hormones typically measured in the serum.
This test is helpful in the evaluation of sex steroid imbalance such as deficiency or excess of estrogen, progesterone or testosterone.
It also helps to assess ADRENAL FUNCTION and conditions relating to imbalances of CORTISOL. Adrenal function testing can also offer insight into NEUROTRANSMITTER LEVELS and MOOD DISORDERS.
The MALE HORMONE PANEL can be helpful for men with:
Dr. Bob was born and raised in Florham Park, New Jersey.
He received his degree in Mechanical Engineering from the New Jersey Institute of Technology and had a successful landscaping business upon graduating.
Dr. Bob became interested in wholistic health in his mid-twenties after an encounter with an alternative health professional resolved the painful, persistent ear infections that he had struggled with his entire childhood.
Dr. Jason was born and raised in Staten Island, NY.
He received his degree in Neurobiology and Behavior from Cornell University, in the beautiful upstate town of Ithaca, New York.
Years before, while still in high school, he read a book that he learned about from watching a TV interview. That book, way ahead of its time, planted the seed for an insatiable appetite for learning about health, particularly wholistic healing and advanced nutrition.
Upon graduation from Cornell, he was a pharmaceutical representative for six years, spending the last few years at the prestigious Cleveland Clinic.
Have you ever wondered if there’s a more holistic approach to healthcare, one that focuses not just on treating individual symptoms but on understanding the whole individual?
Hormone imbalances can cause fatigue, mood changes, weight issues, and chronic health problems, making testing essential for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
We test thyroid hormones, sex hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone), adrenal hormones (cortisol), and metabolic hormones (insulin).
Testing is done through blood, saliva, or urine samples, depending on the hormone and clinical context.
Treatments include nutritional supplementation, lifestyle modifications, and, when necessary, bioidentical hormone therapy.
Most patients notice symptom relief within weeks to months as hormone balance is restored.
