Estrone is a naturally occurring weak estrogenic hormone secreted by the ovary and adrenal glands in females and by the testes in males. Generally, the most heavily secreted and active estrogen - estradiol is converted to estrone when it enters the bloodstream.  In case the female is not pregnant, around 100-200µg of Estrone is secreted per day. During pregnancy, it is produced in smaller amounts while after menopause; adrenal estrone becomes the major circulating estrogen and is produced mostly in adipose and muscle tissue. Estrone levels are also associated with obesity. It is one the three major estrogens that are predominantly involved in the maintenance of the female reproductive system and secondary sexual characteristics.

  • Most of these signs and symptoms are multigenic as well as multifactorial and may be associated with genetic, epigenetic, dietary and environmental factors and mediated by variation in certain hormones. A careful interpretation of results by your physician is suggested. Any form of self-therapy without consulting a licensed physician is highly discouraged.   
  • Additional Information
    Kindly note that the results of this hormone saliva test may not imply a causative effect due to hormonal changes.

    Most of the hormones show a daily endogenous rhythmic variation in their levels and the results of a hormonal test would depend significantly on the time at which the test was taken. So, sampling just once would be inadequate to make any suggestive analysis! Ideally, it is suggested that such profiling should be done periodically at different times in a day for multiple days for obtaining suggestive data that is biologically meaningful.

    Saliva Testing

    Saliva based hormone level testing is a convenient way of testing steroid hormones. Since mid 1980s thousands of scientific studies have shown a strong correlation between steroid hormone levels in saliva and the amount of hormone in the blood that is active or "bioavailable."

    Saliva testing can be done anywhere anytime. Blood based hormone testing that relies on blood drawn in the doctor's office makes it harder to obtain samples at specific times (such as in the early morning) or multiple times during the day. In addition, hormones in saliva are exceptionally stable and can be stored at room temperature for up to a week without affecting the accuracy of the result. This offers maximum flexibility in sample collection and shipment.

    Advantages

    • Saliva measures the free, "bioavailable" fraction of steroid hormones that have moved out of the bloodstream and into the tissue --  NOTE: Blood and urine measure "total" levels
    • Saliva as a collection tool is a painless, noninvasive and needle-free (stress caused by a conventional blood draw can alter test results)
    • Private (home collection kit) convenient for both patient and doctor allows for optimal collection time
    • Hormones are stable in saliva at room temperature up to three weeks allowing for worldwide shipment
    • Transport of saliva samples to laboratory requires no special handling
    • Less expensive than conventional hormone blood testing
    • Ease of collection allows for routine monitoring of hormone levels and adjustment of hormone supplementation as needed.

    Clinical Utility

    Saliva testing can help providers:

    • Identify hidden hormonal imbalances (deficiency or excess) associated with patient symptoms of menopause and andropause as well as reproductive disorders, chronic illness and diseases of aging
    • Link clinical symptoms to specific hormone imbalance(s)
    • Maintain health and prevent disease through early detection of any hormonal imbalance(s)
    • Establish treatment to restore hormonal balance and patient quality of life
    • Monitor patient hormone levels for "individualized" hormone replacement therapy
    • Track patient progress with comparative history reports provided with follow-up testing

     

    NOTE:

     

    California State residents:

    California State health law requires that the testing of any specimen collected or mailed from California be sent with a written order from a health care professional licensed in California to order laboratory tests. This includes the following disciplines: M.D.; D.C.; LAc; R.D.; D.O.; N.P.; and Pharmacists (R.PH). As of September 2002 (Senate Bill 577), such lab tests may be ordered by complementary or alternative health care practitioners "not providing services that require medical training."

    New York State Residents
    New York State health law prohibits the testing of specimens collected in or mailed from New York, and prohibits the transmission of data from ZRT Laboratory to NY physicians or residents. Therefore, direct receipt of lab results for NY residents is not possible. 

    No other states are affected.
    Warnings
    International buyers are responsible for shipping the specimens back to the lab in the United States. TestCountry is not responsible for failed tests due to delays and/or miscollection of specimens.
