How we diagnose hormone imbalance
Hormones are complex, so the testing required to diagnose a hormone imbalance must be equally complex. At Peak Health Institute, we do comprehensive blood and urine testing. The testing that we prescribe depends on your health goals and your sex. For male patients, we usually only prescribe blood testing.
