Female Hormone Saliva Test

What the Test Measures
The Female Hormone Saliva Test assesses key reproductive and stress-related hormones, including oestrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and cortisol. Rather than looking at hormone levels in isolation, the test focuses on hormonal balance and ratios, which are often more relevant to symptoms and overall wellbeing.
The balance between oestrogen and progesterone plays a central role in women’s health. Oestrogen is essential, but when it is not adequately balanced by progesterone, it may contribute to symptoms such as heavy or irregular periods, breast tenderness, mood changes, and cycle disruption. Emerging research also suggests that prolonged exposure to unopposed or poorly balanced oestrogen may be associated with increased risk of certain hormone-sensitive conditions, including some breast and endometrial cancers. Understanding oestrogen patterns can support informed conversations with healthcare practitioners and guide proactive strategies to support long-term hormonal health.

Who Is This Test For?
This test may be suitable for women who:
- Experience PMS, PMDD, or irregular menstrual cycles
- Have heavy or painful periods
- Are navigating perimenopause or menopause
- Have a family history of hormone-sensitive conditions
- Have ongoing symptoms despite “normal” blood test results
It is also valuable for women using hormonal or bio-identical hormone therapies who wish to monitor their response over time.
