DUTCH Cycle Mapping™ (Female Only)

Description

The DUTCH Cycle Mapping™ test tracks estrogen and progesterone levels across the entire menstrual cycle, providing a detailed view of hormonal fluctuations that cannot be captured with single-day testing.

This test is designed to identify how hormones rise and fall throughout the cycle, helping uncover patterns related to ovulation, luteal phase health, and overall hormonal balance.

What This Test Measures

Cycle-Based Hormone Tracking

• Estradiol (E2) patterns across the cycle
• Estrone (E1) patterns
• Progesterone metabolites (α & β-pregnanediol)
• Follicular, ovulatory, and luteal phase hormone dynamics

👉 Includes targeted hormone measurements throughout the cycle

What You Learn

• Whether ovulation is occurring properly
• Timing and strength of estrogen peak
• Progesterone rise in the luteal phase
• Hormonal fluctuations causing symptoms
• Cycle irregularities and pattern disruptions

Graph-based reports visually map hormone patterns across the entire cycle, allowing identification of issues that single-day testing may miss.

Who Should Consider This Test

• Irregular menstrual cycles
• Fertility concerns or trying to conceive
• PCOS or hormone-related acne
• PMS, PMDD, or hormonal migraines
• Symptoms that change throughout the cycle

Sample Collection

• Daily first-morning urine samples throughout the menstrual cycle
