testosterone and DHEA.
Daily cortisol pattern:
morning (AM30), noon, evening and night measurements.
Additional reported ratios:
the Estrogen Quotient, E3/(E1 + E2), and the
progesterone-to-estradiol ratio, for interpretation in clinical context.
Before you collect
Follow the collection times in your WHL kit. If you menstruate
or use hormone treatment, confirm the appropriate collection day
and preparation with your practitioner. Keep taking prescribed
medicines unless your prescriber advises otherwise.

Preparing for this test
WHL will send detailed collection, storage and return instructions with your test kit or appointment confirmation. Those test-specific instructions take priority.
Sample: Saliva
Fasting: An overnight fast is usually not needed. Follow the kit’s food, drink and collection-timing instructions.
Collect at the times stated in your kit. Follow the instructions about food, drink, smoking and toothbrushing before each sample.
Do not stop prescribed medicines or prescribed supplements without advice from your treating clinician. Tell WHL about high-dose biotin; some tests need a longer pause. A short supplement pause does not remove all effects of long-term use.
If another test in the same order requires fasting, follow the combined instructions. Ask your clinician or WHL before fasting if you have diabetes, use glucose-lowering medicine, are pregnant, or are arranging testing for a child.
When to expect your results
Usually 3–10 days. This estimate starts when suitable samples reach the laboratory, not on the order or collection date. Shipping is additional. WHL will confirm any test-specific exception; a combined panel follows its slowest component.
Practical preparation tips
If fasting is requested, drink only plain water in your usual amounts. Do not have coffee, tea, juice, milk, energy drinks, sweets or chewing gum. Avoid smoking or vaping that morning. Book an early appointment and eat after collection.
For a planned blood test, avoid alcohol and unusually strenuous exercise for 24 hours, where practical, and sit quietly for about 15 minutes before collection. Tell WHL if you could not follow the preparation instructions.
Do not extend fasting or change prescribed medication on your own. Ask your clinician first if you have diabetes, need medicine with food, are pregnant, or are arranging testing for a child. WHL’s full test-specific instructions take priority.
