Putting the power in your hands
Hormones play a leading role in women's hair loss. Get direct answers into the root cause of your hair loss and start your journey to regrowth.
What we test for and why
Role: A primary female sex hormone responsible for the development and regulation of the female reproductive system.
Significance: Excessive levels can lead to symptoms such as estrogen dominance, endometrial hyperplasia, PMS, and uterine fibroids. In post-menopausal women, a decline in estradiol can result in hot flashes, night sweats, and bone loss. Maintaining appropriate levels of estradiol is essential for optimal health.
Hair Loss Link: Imbalances in estradiol can lead to hair thinning or shedding, especially if levels swing wildly. Maintaining balanced levels of estradiol is not only essential for reproductive health but also for maintaining hair density.
Role: A key hormone involved in the menstrual cycle and pregnancy.
Significance: An imbalance in progesterone can result in symptoms like weight gain in hips and thighs, irritability, and potential thyroid-related problems. Appropriate levels, especially in balance with estradiol, are vital to counteract symptoms of estrogen dominance and ensure optimal health.
Hair Loss Link: A progesterone imablance can lead to hair loss, especially when it's imbalanced with estradiol. Balanced levels are essential for hair growth and hair health.
Role: While predominantly a male hormone, testosterone also plays roles in women's bone strength, muscle mass, and libido.
Significance: High levels can lead to excessive facial and body hair, acne, and conditions like PCOS. Conversely, low levels can cause loss of libido, muscle mass, and induce depressive symptoms.
Hair Loss Link: High levels of testosterone, especially when converted to DHT (Dihydrotestosterone), is thought to be one of the leading causes of androgenic alopecia (AGA) or female pattern hair loss (FPHL).
Role: Produced by the adrenal glands, it's a precursor for estrogens and testosterone.
Significance: It reflects adrenal gland function. While low DHEA can lead to reduced libido, high levels can masculinize women due to its conversion to testosterone. Monitoring DHEA alongside other hormones is crucial during supplementation.
Hair Loss Link: Excessive DHEA-S can elevate levels of androgens, including testosterone, contributing to hair thinning and loss.
Role: It's an indicator of thyroid function.
Significance: An imbalance can cause fatigue, weight gain, depression, and even infertility. TSH tests are essential to ensure thyroid health, given its overarching effects on overall well-being.
Hair Loss Link: Thyroid imbalances, both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, can lead to hair loss. Ensuring a healthy thyroid function is pivotal for hair health.
Role: Often known as the "sunshine vitamin," Vitamin D3 is primarily obtained through direct sunlight exposure and plays a crucial role in calcium absorption, immune system function, and overall bone health.
Significance: A deficiency in Vitamin D3 can lead to weakened bones (osteoporosis), fatigue, depressed mood, and immune system issues. Proper levels are important for maintaining various physiological functions.
Hair Loss Link: Emerging research suggests that Vitamin D3 deficiency can contribute to hair loss or alopecia. The vitamin's role in follicle cycling makes it a potential contributor to hair growth and health.

Saliva testing is favored for hormone testing due to its precision and accuracy. Unlike blood tests, which might capture a mix of bioavailable and non-bioavailable hormones, saliva testing hones in on the bioavailable fraction. These are the hormones actively diffusing into tissues and directly impacting physiological functions. Specifically for sex hormones, saliva testing offers a clearer and more accurate insight, making it the gold standard in understanding hormone-driven effects in the body.
The hormones selected in this kit play a pivotal role in hair health and overall well-being. An imbalance in any of them could be contributing to hair loss.
