DUTCH Complete offers an extensive profile of sex and adrenal hormones plus melatonin, 8-Hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine and six organic acids to help identify the root causes of hormone imbalances in men and women.

DUTCH (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones) Complete can help identify the root causes of hormone imbalances in men and women. It can provide insights into conditions such as menopause, PCOS, weight gain, fatigue, low libido, premenstrual syndrome, mood swings, sleep issues, mood disorders and prostate issues in men.

Additionally, the test can be used to gather baseline measurements for the administration and monitoring of hormone replacement therapy. The profile analyses 35 different hormones; oestrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA-S and cortisol along with their metabolites. It also measures daily free cortisol, the oxidative stress marker 8OHdG, melatonin and six organic acids including markers for vitamin B12 (methylmalonate), vitamin B6 (xanthurenate), glutathione (pyroglutamate), dopamine (homovanillate), norepinephrine/epinephrine (vanilmandelate), and serotonin (5-hydroxyindoleacetate).

DUTCH Cycle Mapping maps the progesterone and estrogen pattern throughout the menstrual cycle. It provides the full picture of a woman’s cycle to answer important questions for patients with month-specific symptoms, infertility and PCOS.

Nine targeted estrogen and progesterone measurements are taken throughout the cycle to characterise the follicular, ovulatory and luteal phases.

For some women, testing reproductive hormones (progesterone, estrogen, etc.) on a single day is sufficient. In other scenarios, the clinical picture cannot be properly captured without “mapping” out the hormonal pattern throughout their menstrual cycle. The expected pattern of hormones shows relatively low estrogen levels early in the cycle, a surge around ovulation and modest levels in the latter third of the cycle (the luteal phase). Progesterone levels, on the other hand, stay relatively low until after ovulation. After ovulation, levels ideally increase (>10-fold) and then drop back down at the end of the cycle. A disruption in this cycle can lead to infertility or hormonal imbalance.

DUTCH Cycle Mapping is useful in many scenarios, including:

• Women struggling with infertility
• Women with cycling hormones and no menses
• Partial hysterectomy (ovaries intact but no uterus)
• Ablations
• Women with irregular cycles
• PCOS
• If the luteal phase shifts from month-to-month
• When timing of testing is difficult due to long or short cycles
• Women whose hormonal symptoms tend to fluctuate throughout the cycle
PMS, mid-cycle spotting, migraines, etc.

This test is not suitable for:
• Postmenopausal women
• Women on birth control

The DUTCH test is simple and easy to use. Urine samples are taken using filter paper collection strips.

The DUTCH Test is suitable for all women that want to have a look at their hormone levels and the impact on their menstrual cycle and well-being. The Dutch test is fine to use when you are taking an oral contraceptive pill or if you are using a Mirena Coil but please add this in your patients notes at checkout. The DUTCH test can in fact help determine if the Mirena is suppressing hormones. 

This dried urine screen kit is posted to you within 48 hours from the UK so you should receive your test kit within a few days via DHL. You can then arrange DHL to collect your sample using the freepost returns. If you are ordering from outside the UK we will ship via DHL or Fedex with return labels.

When we receive your results back from Precision Analytical Laboratory in the USA (approx 2-3 weeks) we will email you your PDF report and provide support depending on which package you select at checkout.
