With the DUTCH Cycle Mapping, gain in-depth and comprehensive insight into YOUR menstrual cycle.
For some women, testing reproductive hormones like progesterone and estrogen on a single day can provide sufficient information. However, to receive a complete and accurate picture, it’s often necessary to map hormone levels throughout the entire menstrual cycle.
Typically, hormone levels follow a pattern: Estrogen is low at the start of the cycle, rises around ovulation, and then decreases in the luteal phase, otherwise known as the latter part of the cycle. Progesterone remains low until after ovulation, when it ideally increases significantly (>10-fold) and then decreases during the luteal phase.
*This test is not intended for women on hormonal birth control.
