24 Hour Urine Hormone Tests

Many hormone tests are unable to get a holistic picture of your patient’s hormone levels. This is because hormone levels vary throughout the day so you may be measuring a peak or a trough and also important hormones like estriol and androstanediol are missing or inaccurate in serum and saliva hormone tests.

At Meridian Valley Lab (MVL), urinary hormone tests provide precise quantification via gas chromatography, mass spectrometry and proprietary laboratory procedures tied to exacting laboratory quality standards. Twenty four hour urine hormone tests allow you to quantify your patient’s production over a 24 hour period avoiding peaks and troughs and get a detailed view of how the hormones and metabolites may be effecting their current symptom picture.
