DUTCH stands for Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones — developed by Precision Analytical, a CLIA-certified laboratory in Oregon, founded in 2012 by Mark Newman, MS.

You collect small urine samples on filter paper strips at four points across 24 hours. They dry, stay stable for weeks at room temperature, and post anywhere in the world in a standard envelope. The lab analyses them by LC-MS/MS — the reference-standard method for steroid hormone measurement.

A blood test can tell you estradiol is 90 pg/mL. It can’t show which route your body uses to clear it. Estrogen is metabolised down three pathways — 2-OH, 4-OH, and 16-OH — and they aren’t equivalent. DUTCH shows the split, plus how well those metabolites are methylated.

How It Works?

DUTCH Test Potential

• A detailed map of hormone production and metabolism

• Effective monitoring for bioidentical hormone therapy
• A foundation for a personalised plan

A DUTCH test does not include a diagnostic device. It is not FDA-cleared as a diagnostic device and does not diagnose any condition. It is also not a replacement for blood work.

“Everything Looks Normal” Isn’t an Answer

Standard panels screen for disease, not dysfunction. One hormone, one moment, against a population range wide enough to hide almost anything.

Fatigue, stress and cortisol — often searched as an “adrenal fatigue test”

Fatigue, stress and cortisol — often searched as an “adrenal fatigue test”

Adrenal fatigue isn’t a recognised medical diagnosis, and no test confirms it. What the DUTCH Test can do is map your actual cortisol pattern across a full day — free cortisol, cortisone, and total production.
