This DUTCH Cycle Mapping™ Plus test combines comprehensive menstrual-cycle mapping with an assessment of the cortisol awakening response (CAR), providing detailed insight into reproductive hormones and the body’s daily stress response.
This combined dried urine and saliva test can help explore:
Hormones across the menstrual cycle: track oestrogen and progesterone patterns throughout the cycle
Ovulation and luteal-phase health: assess hormone changes around ovulation and during the second half of the cycle
Oestrogen metabolism: examine how the body processes and clears oestrogen
Androgen hormones: assess testosterone, DHEA-S and their metabolites
Cortisol awakening response: measure the natural rise in cortisol during the first hour after waking
Daily cortisol patterns: assess 10–12 free cortisol and cortisone points across the day
Stress and hormone interactions: explore how cortisol patterns may be influencing menstrual and hormone-related symptoms
Free cortisol is the active form of cortisol that can bind to receptors and produce an effect within the body. Measuring this alongside hormone patterns throughout the cycle provides a more comprehensive picture of hormonal health.
The kit includes:
Courier delivery and collection
Clear collection instructions
25 dried urine collection strips
Six Salivette™ saliva collection tubes
Requisition and health questionnaire covering relevant supplements, medications and hormone replacement
A sealable return envelope
A 60-minute consultation to review your results
Personalised notes and recommended next steps emailed after your consultation
