Description

This panel provides a thorough evaluation of your hormonal, thyroid, adrenal, reproductive, and general metabolic health. It combines advanced testing of key hormones and antibodies with essential blood counts and metabolic markers to uncover the root causes of symptoms like fatigue, mood changes, weight struggles, and reproductive issues. By addressing underlying imbalances and dysfunction, this panel supports personalized, functional medicine approaches to restore long-term health and vitality.

Biomarkers Included

  • Complete Blood Count (CBC) with Differential:
  • Assesses red and white blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and platelets. Detects anemia, infection, immune status, and overall blood health.
  • Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP):
  • Evaluates kidney and liver function, blood glucose, electrolytes, and protein levels—critical for metabolic and organ health.
  • Thyroid Panel:
  • TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone): Regulates thyroid hormone production.
  • Free T3 & Free T4: Active thyroid hormones controlling metabolism and energy.
  • Reverse T3: Inactive form that can block thyroid hormone function, often elevated with stress or illness.
  • Thyroid Antibody Group (TPO + TG): Detects autoimmune thyroid disease (Hashimoto’s, Graves’).
  • Reproductive Hormones:
  • FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone) & LH (Luteinizing Hormone): Regulate ovarian and testicular function.
  • Prolactin: Elevated levels can cause menstrual irregularities and infertility.
  • Estradiol: Primary estrogen hormone affecting reproductive and overall health.
  • Progesterone: Balances estrogen, supports menstrual cycle and pregnancy.
  • Testosterone (Free & Total) with SHBG: Key anabolic hormone for muscle, energy, and libido.
  • DHEA-S (Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate): Adrenal hormone precursor involved in sex hormone production.
  • Vitamin D, 25(OH):
  • Essential for immune health, bone strength, and hormone function.
  • Cortisol:
  • Primary stress hormone reflecting adrenal gland function and stress response.

Symptoms & Root Causes

Thyroid System

Symptoms: Fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, cold intolerance, constipation, dry skin, depression, menstrual issues.

Root Causes: Autoimmune thyroid disease, chronic stress increasing reverse T3, nutrient deficiencies (iodine, selenium), toxin exposure, inflammation, gut dysbiosis impairing thyroid conversion.

Adrenal & Stress Hormones

Symptoms: Chronic fatigue, poor stress tolerance, anxiety, sleep problems, blood sugar cravings, muscle weakness, low libido.

Root Causes: Chronic psychological or physical stress, blood sugar dysregulation, inflammation, nutrient depletion (magnesium, B vitamins), adrenal exhaustion.

Reproductive Hormones

Symptoms: Irregular or painful periods, PMS, low libido, infertility, mood swings, estrogen dominance signs (weight gain, water retention).

Root Causes: Stress impacting pituitary hormone release, estrogen dominance from poor detox or environmental estrogens, low progesterone from anovulation, testosterone imbalance, nutritional insufficiencies.

Vitamin D & Nutrient Status

Symptoms: Fatigue, muscle weakness, bone pain, frequent infections, mood disorders.

Root Causes: Limited sun exposure, malabsorption, obesity, chronic inflammation impairing metabolism.

General Health Markers (CBC & CMP)

Symptoms: Fatigue, infections, fluid retention, detoxification issues.

Root Causes: Nutrient deficiencies (iron, B12), immune dysfunction, liver/kidney problems, chronic inflammation.

Why This Panel Matters

These systems are deeply interconnected. For example, chronic stress can suppress thyroid and reproductive hormones; thyroid dysfunction can impair energy and mood; nutrient deficiencies worsen hormone production and immune function; and autoimmunity often begins with thyroid antibodies but affects the whole body.

Testing all these markers together provides a comprehensive root cause map to guide personalized interventions—diet, lifestyle, supplements, and stress management—that restore balance and optimize health naturally.

Who Should Consider This Panel

  • Individuals with unexplained fatigue, weight changes, mood disturbances, or hormone-related symptoms
  • Those with menstrual irregularities, infertility, or menopausal symptoms
  • People struggling with thyroid disorders or autoimmune diseases
  • Anyone interested in deep hormonal and metabolic insight for root-cause heal

Fasting Requirement

8–12 hours fasting is recommended for the most accurate metabolic and hormone readings.

Why This Matters in Functional Medicine

By testing multiple systems at once, this panel helps identify the hidden links between stress, thyroid slowdown, reproductive hormone shifts, nutrient depletion, and autoimmune triggers—allowing for targeted lifestyle, nutrition, and supplement strategies that correct imbalances at the source.
