What does the DUTCH Test measure?

The DUTCH test is the most advanced and comprehensive hormone test on the market because it measures your hormones and hormone metabolites, which assesses hormone production and hormone breakdown.

The DUTCH test measures these hormones and metabolites:

Sex Hormones & Metabolites: 

  • Estrogens – The balance between estrogen and progesterone is important for fertility, PMS and menopausal symptoms.
  • Estrogen metabolites – These metabolites show how your body is detoxifying estrogen. If not optimized, it can increase your risk of breast cancer, prostate cancer, cysts and fibroids.
  • Testosterone – there is an optimal range for men and women which is associated with vitality and wellbeing, low levels can affect mood, fertility, libido and athletic performance.
  • Progesterone metabolites – (a-pregnanediol, b-pregnanediol) will indicate your total progesterone levels, these are also precursors to make the neurotransmitter GABA. Low progesterone levels can lead to PMS symptoms and infertility.
  • Androgen metabolites of DHEAS and Testosterone – this is important to assess how well your body is processing testosterone, if it is metabolized down the 5a-DHT pathway this can cause hair loss, skin problems, aggression and even increase prostate cancer risk in men.

Adrenal Hormones & Metabolites:

  • Total metabolized cortisol – this shows you how much cortisol your body is making over the entire day and can be very different to the free cortisol level. The amount of cortisol you are producing will help to guide your treatment plan.
  • Total cortisone – tells us how quickly your body is deactivating cortisol to cortisone.
  • Free cortisol – this shows you the active levels of cortisol in your body, the level and rhythm of free cortisol will help to guide your treatment plan.
  • Free cortisone – plus the metabolites of cortisone to show how quickly cortisol is getting deactivated to cortisone, this will help to guide us on the best treatment strategy for you.
  • Tetrahyrdocortisone – this is a metabolite of cortisone;
  • a-tetrahydrocortisol – this is a metabolite of cortisol;
  • b-tetrahydrocortisol – this is a metabolite of cortisol.
  • DHEAs – is a precursor to testosterone and estrogen, a high level can indicate PCOS and inflammation, a low level can indicate adrenal insufficiency.

Organic Acids:

  • Markers for neurotransmitters, B12, B6 and glutathione.

Melatonin:  

6-OH-melatonin-sulfate – which assesses melatonin production, low melatonin can affect sleep quality making it difficult to fall asleep or stay asleep. Melatonin also has antioxidant affects which can help to protect the brain and improve mood.
Oxidative Stress:  
  • 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) – predominant biomarker to assess free radical-induced oxidative cellular damage.

FAQ’s

What is the DUTCH test?

The DUTCH test stands for Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones and can assess the sex hormones, adrenal hormones, and key organic acid markers relating to hormone health. The DUTCH test requires a collection of a urine sample on special collection paper 4-5 times throughout the day, this makes the samples easy to collect at home and send back to the lab and can be shipped worldwide.

What does the DUTCH test measure?

The DUTCH test measures 40 plus metabolites to assess testosterone, progesterone, and estrogen plus how they are getting metabolized, along with the cortisol and cortisone and how the levels change throughout the day and night. The DUTCH test also assesses organic acid markers for melatonin, B12, B6, dopamine, norepinephrine, detoxification and oxidative stress.

Is the DUTCH test legitimate?

Yes, the DUTCH test has peer-reviewed research showing that it is an accurate way of assessing sex hormones when compared with the gold standard of blood testing, the DUTCH test has the advantages of being able to detect the detoxification of hormones blood testing cannot do. There is also peer reviewed research showing that the DUTCH test is an accurate way of assessing cortisol with the collection of the dried urine samples compared to saliva testing and 24-hour urine collection.

When should I take the DUTCH test?

For women with a regular menstrual cycle the best time to take the DUTCH test is in the luteal phase of your cycle which is around day 19-22. If you don’t have a regular cycle that is ok and we can help to guide you through the best time to take the test and many women do this test with irregular cycles as the results can help to explain why this is happening.For men and post-menopause women, they can do the test at any time.
