The Saliva Hormone Test is the best non-invasive method for discovering any type of hormone imbalance in either males or females. Hormone imbalance can occur at any age and can be due to a multitude of reasons.

The ovaries produce many of the hormones in females, which also communicate with the brain to either increase or decrease the release of various other hormones. The imbalance within the body can lead to symptoms experienced during a short period of time or for many years.

In men, the testes produce mainly 95% of all testosterone, which is balanced by the adrenal gland.  The brain also regulates the increase or decrease of hormones released within the body. The irregularity of testosterone within the body may contribute to decreased bone density, decreased muscle strength and decreased libido.
