Is Hormone Testing Your Next Step While Struggling With Period Symptoms?

Struggling With Period Symptoms?

If you have been struggling for a while with period symptoms and having trouble trying to conceive, hormone testing could be your next step to figure out exactly what is going on.

But, you may be running into some problems with doing that:

  • Your doctor won’t run a hormone panel
  • Your doctor did run a hormone panel and told you everything was fine and come back if things get worse
  • You didn’t know you had to test at a specific time in your cycle and you went to the lab on the wrong day (your doctor did not say anything about this)
  • You got your lab results back and only two or three things were tested

So, you are still at square one with no answers and still having to plan your life around your symptoms.

If you would like to test your hormones at home to get a real complete picture of what is going on with your hormones and receive a personalized plan of action of the things you can actually do to heal your hormones. . .

Functional Lab Testing may be for you.  I use a Functional Lab Test from Meridian Valley Labs and you can do it at home.  So –

  • No going to the lab
  • No trying to convince your doctor to run a hormone panel
  • No needles!

If you’ve been doing all things to heal your period symptoms and hormones and nothing is working, it can be really helpful to understand what exactly is going on with your hormones and then tailor an action plan that will work for your body.  No more not feeling heard or feeling lost about what to do next.  Learn more about functional lab testing here.

You don’t need a major overhaul to heal your symptoms.  Tweeking a few things that address the root cause or reason for your symptoms is what it takes.  We will review your hormone test results, go over what they mean and review nutrition and lifestyle foundations plus individualized recommendations based on your personal levels.

So, here is what is provided with a Functional Lab Test:

  • Your complete at-home test kit
  • A 30-minute call to review test instructions – information will be sent to you ahead of time
  • A comprehensive health assessment
  • A review appointment via zoom or in person to go over test results – you will be sent the results ahead of time with an explanation of what each category means and you will be provided a protocol explanation before this appointment
  • Personalized guidance for your particular hormone status

You can use your HSA/FSA cards for payment for this testing.
