As you see in the above chart, TESTING your hormones is an important next step in Optimizing Your Hormones whether you choose DIY or INKA’S Gift.
Testing your hormones is the most accurate way and the Gold Standard in Functional Medicine to be certain of your hormone needs.
If you haven’t started using Young Hormones™ creams or prescribed Hormone Replacement Therapy, testing Your Hormones give you a starting point that will serve as your unique BASELINE. This helps you with initial Young Hormones™ cream choices as well as monitoring your needs as you move through the seasons of your life.
If you are already using hormone supplementation, and have used them for 3 months or longer, your next step is to Test Your Hormones. Testing should be done with either a Saliva or Blood Spot Test through a professional Hormone Laboratory.
We recommend ZRT Laboratories.
You can find testing here:
