Urine Hormones & Estrogen Metabolites : Advanced Hormone Detox & Metabolism Testing
Available through our collaboration with ZRT Laboratory
Overview
The Urine Hormones & Estrogen Metabolites test provides an advanced, non-invasive method for assessing how the body processes and eliminates hormones. By examining both parent hormones , such as estrogens, progesterone derivatives, androgens, cortisol, and melatonin , along with their metabolic by-products, this profile reveals whether your hormone detox pathways are working efficiently.
This advanced testing is frequently included in functional medicine tests, integrated medicine testing, and root cause testing protocols at leading functional health centres or longevity labs in Delhi / India.
Functional medicine practitioners in Delhi/India may recommend this test alongside holistic health tests, preventive longevity tests, or biological age test programs to provide a comprehensive overview of endocrine and metabolic health.
An imbalance in hormone breakdown can result in the accumulation of potentially harmful metabolites, which may raise the risk of hormone-related conditions, including certain cancers.
Why Urine Hormones & Estrogen Metabolites Test Is Important?
Research continues to show that both the amount of estrogen produced and how it is metabolized can influence cancer risk. In women, this is particularly relevant to breast cancer, while in men it can be linked to prostate cancer.
Evaluating estrogen metabolism alongside other hormone pathways provides a deeper understanding of endocrine health and can help functional medicine practitioners in Delhi/India design targeted interventions. This complements functional medicine diagnostics, holistic health tests, and preventive longevity tests or biological age test assessments.
When to Consider Urine Hormones & Estrogen Metabolites Test
You may benefit from this testing if you have:
- A family history of breast, prostate, or other hormone-driven cancers
- Hormonal imbalance symptoms (weight gain, insomnia, low energy)
- Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) signs such as acne or excess hair growth
- Menopausal symptoms and are planning to start hormone therapy
- Estrogen dominance symptoms while on hormone replacement therapy
- Unexplained adrenal symptoms despite normal saliva cortisol results
This test is often integrated into functional medicine tests, integrated medicine testing, and root cause testing programs at functional health centres and longevity labs in Delhi / India.
Why ZRT’s Test Stands Out
This profile is among the most comprehensive urine hormone tests available with 44 unique markers, offering broader insights than standard panels.
Key Advantages of Urine Hormones & Estrogen Metabolites Test:
- Extensive Estrogen Coverage : Measures 13 estrogen metabolites, including protective and potentially harmful forms such as 2-hydroxy, 4-hydroxy, 16α-hydroxy, and their methoxy derivatives
- Comprehensive Androgen Analysis : Includes 8 androgen metabolites for a complete view of androgen activity
- BPA Screening : Detects Bisphenol A, a known endocrine-disrupting chemical
- Diurnal Hormone Patterns : Charts daily patterns of cortisol, cortisone, and melatonin for stress and sleep evaluations
Integration with functional medicine diagnostics, holistic health tests, and functional medicine tests allows functional medicine practitioners in Delhi/India to provide personalized recommendations while supporting longevity tests and biological age test programs.
Simple At-Home Collection
- Four urine samples collected on special filter strips at specific times of the day
- No 24-hour urine jug needed
- Samples remain stable for up to 30 days without refrigeration
- Easy, discreet mailing back to the laboratory
Urine Hormones & Estrogen Metabolites Test Clinical Uses
- Risk assessment for hormone-driven cancers
- Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and bioidentical hormone monitoring
- Adrenal health and stress evaluation
- Sleep-wake cycle hormone analysis
- Comprehensive hormone balance assessment in men and women
This test complements functional medicine diagnostics, integrated medicine testing, and preventive longevity tests at functional health centres and longevity labs in Delhi / India, under the guidance of expert functional medicine practitioners in Delhi/India.
