DUTCH™ Adrenal
A focused look at your adrenal function — your full daily free-cortisol curve, plus cortisol metabolites, cortisone and DHEA-S, from a simple at-home dried-urine collection.
- Full daily free-cortisol curve — morning, day, evening & night
- Cortisol metabolites & cortisone — how you make and clear cortisol
- DHEA-S — your key anabolic adrenal hormone
- A focused adrenal picture — without the full hormone panel
Your full daily cortisol rhythm and adrenal markers
Adrenal zeroes in on the stress system — the daily free-cortisol pattern plus the metabolites that show how your body produces and clears cortisol.
Daily free-cortisol curve
Timed samples across the day reveal whether your cortisol rhythm is healthy, flat or dysregulated.
Cortisol metabolites
How much cortisol you actually produce and how fast you clear it — context a single reading misses.
DHEA & adrenal output
Your key anabolic adrenal hormone, balancing the catabolic stress hormones.
Why dried urine?
A single blood draw catches one moment. The DUTCH™ method uses a few dried-urine samples collected across a day, so it can map your cortisol rhythm — not just a single number — and show how your body actually processes hormones.
Because it measures hormone metabolites, not just levels, your practitioner can see patterns blood and saliva miss: estrogen detox pathways, androgen metabolism, and the daily free-cortisol pattern behind fatigue, stress and sleep.

How it compares to a standard blood test
Trusted by people getting to the root of their hormones
"After years of being told my bloodwork was 'normal,' the DUTCH™ finally showed the cortisol pattern behind my fatigue. Game-changing."
"So easy to do at home, and the report was incredibly detailed. My practitioner built a whole protocol around the metabolite results."
"Seeing my estrogen and progesterone mapped out finally explained my PMS. Worth every penny."
DUTCH™ Adrenal — common questions
DUTCH™ (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones) measures your sex and adrenal hormones and their metabolites from a few dried-urine samples collected at home. It shows not just hormone levels but how your body produces and processes them.
You collect a few small dried-urine samples on filter paper across a single day at home — no blood draw and no clinic visit. The dried strips are stable to mail back in the prepaid envelope.
Your report is typically ready within about 10–15 business days of the lab receiving your samples, and is reviewed with practitioner guidance. Free shipping across Canada.
Adrenal focuses only on your cortisol rhythm and adrenal markers — ideal if stress, fatigue or burnout is the main question and you don't need sex hormones. For the full sex- and adrenal-hormone picture choose DUTCH™ Complete; to add the morning stress surge, see DUTCH™ Plus.
