Sleep Balance - Dried Urine (Male and Female)

This test evaluates key hormones and neurotransmitters that regulate sleep cycles, mood, and overall rest quality using a dried urine sample. It provides insight into why an individual may be experiencing insomnia, restless sleep, or daytime fatigue.

Key Markers Tested:

• Melatonin (MT6s) – The primary sleep hormone, melatonin controls sleep onset and quality. Low levels can cause difficulty falling or staying asleep, while excessive levels may indicate circadian rhythm imbalances.
• Cortisol (AM levels) – Measures morning cortisol, which should be high in the morning to promote wakefulness. Imbalances can contribute to trouble waking up, fatigue, or stress-related sleep disturbances.
• Creatinine – Ensures proper sample concentration for accurate results.

Benefits:

✅ Identifies Sleep Disruptors – Detects melatonin or cortisol imbalances that may be causing difficulty falling asleep, frequent waking, or poor sleep quality.

✅ Evaluates Circadian Rhythm Function – Helps determine if sleep-wake cycles are misaligned due to stress, late-night screen exposure, shift work, or lifestyle factors.

✅ Supports Insomnia & Fatigue Management – Provides insights into whether low melatonin, high evening cortisol, or other hormonal imbalances are contributing to poor sleep and daytime tiredness.

✅ Guides Natural Sleep Optimization – Helps create a personalized plan for adjusting melatonin levels, managing stress, and improving overall sleep hygiene.

✅ Easy At-Home Collection – Uses a dried urine sample, making it a simple, non-invasive way to assess sleep hormone function.
