Adrenal Fatigue Testing

Prolonged stress can have a negative impact on your adrenal function and lead to a hormonal imbalance. An imbalance in adrenal stress hormones, such as cortisol and DHEA, can lead to problems with energy levels, emotions, chronic inflammatory conditions, headaches, susceptibility to infections, menstrual irregularities, difficulty concentrating and insomnia.

Avant Gynecology offers adrenal fatigue testing to assess your adrenal hormones with a simple saliva test. The test results will include a detailed report of your adrenal hormone production throughout the day. Additionally, you will be given recommendations for lifestyle changes and supplements to boost your adrenal function.

For your convenience, we carry various adrenal health supplements that can be purchased in our office.

Micronutrient Testing

Vitamin, mineral and antioxidant deficiencies play a direct role in suppressing immune function and contributing to chronic health conditions. Avant Gynecology now offers micronutrient testing with a simple blood test that can evaluate and measure how specific micronutrients are functioning in your immune system. After testing, you will receive a detailed report outlining your micronutrient status for various vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants. The report will also provide you with nutrient repletion recommendations and list the essential functions and food sources of each nutrient tested.

ALCAT Test

The foods, chemicals and environmental substances that we eat and expose ourselves to each day have a profound impact on our immune system. The ALCAT Food and Chemical Sensitivity/Intolerance Test identifies sensitivities to hundreds of foods, additives, chemicals, dyes, medications and environmental substances with a simple blood test. These sensitivities lead to a state of inflammation that can exacerbate or trigger the onset of chronic health conditions like migraines, aching joints, fatigue, GI disorders, skin disorders, ADHD, asthma and weight gain.

ALCAT is NOT an “allergy” or IgE test like the RAST test or skin testing. The ALCAT measures delayed reactions to foods and chemicals that would not test positive on a typical allergy test. You will receive a detailed report listing the identified sensitivities divided into four distinct areas: severe reaction, moderate reaction, mild reaction and no reaction. The report will also help you develop an appropriate plan to start eliminating these substances, so you can improve your general health and immunity.

Saliva Hormone Testing

Saliva testing is a useful diagnostic tool in measuring various hormone levels when diagnosing and treating hormone imbalance. Salivary hormone concentration represents the free form of a particular hormone rather than the bound form of hormone as measured in blood tests. Saliva tests are non-invasive and multiple samples can be taken over a period of time, which helps reflect the body’s daily hormonal fluctuation. Saliva hormone testing is useful in the diagnosis of cycle abnormalities as well as the management of bio-identical hormone replacement therapy.

Avant Gynecology offers various saliva hormone panels to assess hormonal imbalance and response to hormone replacement therapy. Cost varies among the different hormone panels, and some insurance plans cover a portion of the test cost.
