Your hormones are more than a number. It’s time to see the patterns behind them.

A basic hormone test typically measures the amount of specific hormones present at the time your sample is collected.

DUTCH Complete goes deeper by looking at hormone levels alongside their metabolites, estrogen metabolism, androgen metabolism, and daily cortisol and cortisone patterns. It also includes select organic acid markers that provide additional information related to areas such as nutrient status, oxidative stress, and neurotransmitter metabolism.

This helps provide a broader view of your hormone and stress picture rather than looking at individual hormone values alone.

We do not bill insurance directly. Many functional lab tests are HSA/FSA eligible. You can use your card at checkout, though eligibility is ultimately determined by your plan administrator. We recommend checking with your plan administrator before placing your order.

In Depth Hormone Analysis may be a good fit if you are:

• Perimenopausal or menopausal
• Still cycling, even if your periods have become irregular or unpredictable
• Considering hormone replacement therapy
• Currently using certain forms of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy
• Looking beyond basic hormone levels for a deeper understanding of hormone metabolism
• Wondering whether your daily cortisol patterns may be contributing to changes in energy, sleep, or how you feel.

DUTCH Complete is not designed to measure synthetic hormones replacement or hormones found in hormonal contraceptives.

If you use combination hormonal contraceptives or progestin only contraceptives, the sex hormone portion of your results may provide limited information.

However, this test will still provide meaningful information on stress and energy patterns. 

If you are unsure whether this test is appropriate for your current medications or hormone therapy, please contact Posity Wellness before ordering.

It depends on the type of hormone therapy you use.

DUTCH Complete can provide useful information for many people using bioidentical hormones, including oral micronized progesterone and several forms of estradiol.

For testosterone therapy, DUTCH Complete may be most useful alongside serum testosterone testing depending on the delivery method.

Synthetic hormones used in hormone replacement therapy or hormonal contraceptives cannot be directly measured by DUTCH Complete.

If you are unsure whether this test is appropriate for your current medications or hormone therapy, please contact Posity Wellness before ordering.

Your test kit includes detailed collection instructions based on your cycle status and any hormones or supplements you are currently using.

Because collection timing and medication instructions can vary, follow the instructions provided with your kit carefully. Do not discontinue prescribed medications unless directed by your prescribing healthcare professional.

From ordering your kit to receiving your personalized education report, here’s what you can generally expect:

• Kit delivery: Approximately 3 to 5 business days after your order is processed.
• Lab processing: Approximately 10 to 14 business days after your samples are received by the laboratory.
• Personalized Lab Results Education Report: Approximately 3 business days after your completed lab results are received by Posity Wellness.

Turnaround times are estimates and may vary based on shipping, laboratory volume, holidays, or other processing delays.

The In-Depth Hormone Analysis is available to residents of the contiguous United States, with the exception of New York, New Jersey, and Rhode Island due to state regulations.

At this time, testing cannot be ordered if you reside in New York, New Jersey, or Rhode Island, or if you reside outside of the contiguous United States.

Your Personalized Lab Results Education Report is designed to turn a complex laboratory report into information that is easier to understand and use. Rather than leaving you to sort through pages of markers, graphs, and reference ranges on your own, your report helps highlight the findings and patterns that deserve your attention.

Your personalized report includes:

• A clear, plain language review of your laboratory findings
• Identification of key results and patterns that stand out
• Education about what your individual markers measure and why they matter
• Connections between related markers and patterns within your results
• Insight into how your findings may relate to the concerns and questions that led you to testing
• Identification of areas you may want to explore further with your healthcare provider
• A personalized resource you can save and bring to future healthcare appointments

Your education report is intended to help you better understand your laboratory findings and prepare you for more informed conversations about your health. It does not provide a medical diagnosis or replace care, diagnosis, or treatment from your licensed healthcare provider.

Posity Wellness partners with an independent physician network to provide the licensed physician oversight required to order your laboratory testing.

The physician network reviews and authorizes your lab order, allowing you to access testing without first obtaining an order from your personal healthcare provider.

The physician network’s role is limited to facilitating and authorizing the laboratory order. They do not provide ongoing medical care, diagnosis, treatment, or replace your relationship with your personal healthcare provider.

Your laboratory results and Personalized Lab Results Education Report are provided to help you better understand your findings and can be shared with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and medical decision making.
