WHY SALIVA TESTING?
Saliva testing is the most reliable way to measure free, "bioavailable" hormone activity - hormones actually doing their job at the cellular level. Most blood tests do not measure "bioavailable" hormone levels.
Saliva hormones more accurately reflect tissue uptake and response of hormones in the body.
Saliva collection is painless - no needles. It negates the need for blood drawing which may cause stress that can alter test results.
Saliva collection, is easy. It can be done at the patient's home at an optimal time and at their convenience.



HORMONE TESTING IS
PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT FOR:
Anti-aging programs.
Monitoring hormone replacement therapy.
PMS / Menopausal syndromes.
Libido / Sexual dysfunction problems.
Identify hormonal imbalances which may be
causing a variety of symptoms.


Natural Hormones
Dr. Sobo is a proponent of the use of natural hormones. Synthetic hormones are among the most widely prescribed pharmaceuticals in use today. Natural hormones, made from plant sources are identical in structure to the hormones produced by our own bodies. Because they are substances natural to the body they may minimize any side effects and maximize the safety of hormone replacement therapy.They are FDA-approved substances made by licensed compounding pharmacies, and are available with a doctor's presciption.
