The Biomarker Hormone+ Panel test offered by Adnà merges biochemistry and photonic chip technology to provide more biomarker data, faster and with less blood volume.
Collect the sample at home, using a gentle, painless finger prick method. The test requires just 8 drops of blood.
Results are presented in an easy-to-understand online dashboard, within 3 to 5 working days.
Test kits are universal with regard to gender; this is determined at test registration and processed accordingly.
List of Biomarkers measured:
⚤ Hormone+ panel (female)
- LH: Luteinizing hormone (LH) is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that triggers ovulation and stimulates the production of sex hormones in the ovaries and testes.
- Folate: Folate (vitamin B9) is an essential nutrient that promotes DNA synthesis, red blood cell formation and healthy brain function. It is particularly important during pregnancy for fetal development.
- Vitamin B12: Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient that contributes to red blood cell formation, neurological function and DNA synthesis.
- Anti-Mullerian Hormone: AMH (anti-mullerian hormone) is a hormone produced by ovarian follicles that serves as a marker of a woman's ovarian reserve and fertility potential.
- SHBG: Sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) is a protein that binds to sex hormones, such as testosterone and estrogen, and regulates their bioavailability and activity in the body.
- Prolactin: Prolactin is a hormone known for its role in regulating post-partum milk production in women and testosterone production in men. Irregularities in prolactin levels may indicate problems with an individual's pituitary gland.
- DHEA-S: DHEA-S is a hormone that serves as a precursor to testosterone and estrogen, the main male and female sex hormones. Consequently, DHEA-S levels can provide insight into an individual's sexual and reproductive health.
⚤ Hormone+ panel (male)
- Estradiol: Estradiol is a form of estrogen, a hormone produced primarily by the ovaries, which plays a crucial role in regulating the menstrual cycle, the reproductive system and secondary sexual characteristics.
- LH: Luteinizing hormone (LH) is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that triggers ovulation and stimulates the production of sex hormones in the ovaries and testes.
- SHBG: Sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) is a protein that binds to sex hormones such as testosterone and estrogen, regulating their bioavailability and activity in the body.
- Prolactin: Prolactin is a hormone known for its role in regulating milk production after childbirth in women and testosterone production in men. Irregularities in prolactin levels may indicate problems with an individual's pituitary gland.
- FSH: Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that regulates the growth, development and reproductive processes of the ovaries and testes.
- PSA: Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) is a protein produced by the prostate gland, the levels of which are measured for screening and monitoring prostate health, including the detection of prostate cancer.
- Albumin: Albumin is a protein produced by the liver that helps maintain blood volume and pressure by regulating the oncotic pressure of the blood.
- Free testosterone (Calculated): Testosterone is a primary male sex hormone responsible for the development of reproductive tissue and secondary sexual characteristics.
