Why This Lab Is Important
+
Female hormone health plays a central role in mood, metabolism, energy, cycle regulation and overall well-being. During perimenopause and menopause, shifting hormone patterns can contribute to changes in cycles, sleep, weight and how women feel day-to-day. The Durable FEMALE ESSENTIAL panel provides a foundational look at key reproductive and adrenal-related hormones that influence these transitions.*
Dr. Passero uses the Durable FEMALE ESSENTIAL panel most often for women in perimenopause or menopause, when hormone levels become more unpredictable and testing can offer valuable insight for guiding supportive strategies. This panel measures estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, FSH and LH to help assess patterns of hormonal change and reproductive aging.*
In addition to its value during perimenopause and menopause, the Durable FEMALE ESSENTIAL panel can be used in cycling women when timed appropriately within the menstrual cycle. Measuring these key hormones at the right point in the cycle can help clarify patterns that may contribute to PMS, heavy or painful periods, headaches, ovarian cysts or concerns such as PCOS. Assessing how hormone levels interact throughout the cycle can help uncover subtle imbalances that may not be obvious without targeted testing.*
Important timing note for cycling women: Because hormone levels fluctuate significantly across the menstrual cycle, results are most meaningful when testing is done at the appropriate time. For most cycling women, hormone testing is typically recommended about 7 days after ovulation (around days 19-23 of a 28-day cycle). Women with PCOS may benefit from testing earlier in the cycle (days 2-4). Women in menopause or with infrequent cycles can test at any time.*
Dr. Passero recommends the Durable FEMALE ESSENTIAL panel for anyone seeking to:*
The Durable FEMALE ESSENTIAL panel provides a strong foundation for evaluating female hormone health. For those interested in deeper insight into adrenal function, hormonal regulation and broader health markers, we also offer the Durable FEMALE PREMIUM PANEL.*

This panel tests for the following key markers that influence female hormone health:*
What to Expect After Ordering Your Lab Test
After purchasing a lab test from Durable, you’ll receive an order confirmation right away. Your lab order will be emailed separately within two business days. All lab-related communications—including your lab order, instructions and results notifications—are sent via encrypted, HIPAA-compliant email from labs@livedurable.com.

How to Interpret Results
All test results include a lab-generated reference range reflecting values commonly seen in a healthy population. Results are flagged only when they fall outside this range as high or low. While these reference ranges provide helpful context, results are best interpreted alongside your health history, symptoms and trends over time and should be reviewed with your healthcare practitioner.

Dr. Passero recommends the Durable FEMALE ESSENTIAL panel for anyone seeking to:*
- Establish a baseline view of key female hormone levels
- Better understand hormonal shifts during perimenopause or menopause
- Evaluate whether hormone changes may be contributing to symptoms such as mood changes, fatigue or cycle changes
- Monitor hormone patterns over time as part of a personalized wellness approach
The Durable FEMALE ESSENTIAL panel provides a strong foundation for evaluating female hormone health. For those interested in deeper insight into adrenal function, hormonal regulation and broader health markers, we also offer the Durable FEMALE PREMIUM PANEL.*
What’s Included in the Durable FEMALE ESSENTIAL Panel
This panel tests for the following key markers that influence female hormone health:*
- Estradiol (E2)—Estradiol is the primary form of estrogen during the reproductive years and plays a major role in cycle regulation, bone health, mood and metabolic function. Measuring estradiol helps assess estrogen patterns that often shift during perimenopause.
- Progesterone—Progesterone is essential for ovulation, menstrual cycle balance and healthy pregnancy. Changes in progesterone are common in early perimenopause and can contribute to cycle irregularity, sleep disruption and PMS-like symptoms.
- Total Testosterone—Testosterone supports libido, motivation, lean muscle maintenance and overall vitality in women. Measuring total testosterone provides a broad view of androgen production and hormonal balance.
- DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone)—DHEA is an adrenal hormone that serves as a precursor to both testosterone and estrogen. It offers insight into adrenal function, energy regulation and overall hormone resilience.
- FSH & LH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone and Luteinizing Hormone)—FSH and LH are pituitary hormones that regulate ovarian function and reproductive signaling. These markers are especially useful during perimenopause and menopause, when rising levels can reflect changes in ovarian hormone production.

Lab-Specific FAQs
+
What does the Durable FEMALE ESSENTIAL panel test for?
Estradiol, progesterone, total testosterone, DHEA, FSH and LH.*
Why consider upgrading to the Durable FEMALE PREMIUM panel?
The Durable FEMALE ESSENTIAL panel evaluates key hormone markers—estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, FSH and LH. The Durable FEMALE PREMIUM panel builds on this by adding markers such as total estrogens, pregnenolone, SHBG and cortisol, along with broader health markers—offering deeper insight into hormone regulation, adrenal function and hormonal transitions.*
Do I need to fast or follow any special instructions prior to this test?
The Durable FEMALE ESSENTIAL panel does not require fasting prior to testing, but it is recommended that the blood draw is completed before 9:00AM as hormone levels can fluctuate significantly throughout the day. For most cycling women, hormone testing is typically recommended about 7 days after ovulation (around days 19-23 of a 28-day cycle). Women with PCOS may benefit from testing earlier in the cycle (days 2-4). Women in menopause or with infrequent cycles can test at any time.*
Can I take medications beforehand?
Yes. Most medications do not interfere with the tests in this panel. Do not stop medications unless directed by your healthcare practitioner.*
Will recent diet or alcohol intake affect my results?
No. Short-term dietary choices or alcohol intake do not significantly influence the markers included in this panel.*
How often should I get this test?
Dr. Passero recommends routine monitoring of these markers, with testing every 3-6 months for most adults. Re-testing at the recommended interval allows you and your healthcare practitioner to monitor trends over time, assess how your body is responding to lifestyle or nutritional changes and make informed adjustments. Testing frequency should be individualized based on risk factors, clinical context and your doctor’s recommendations.*
Does insurance cover the cost of my tests?
Lab tests must be paid for in full at checkout using a credit card, a supported payment platform (such as Shop Pay, PayPal, Google Pay or Venmo), or an eligible FSA/HSA debit card. In some cases, health insurance providers may reimburse individuals for lab testing. You can contact your insurance provider directly to determine whether reimbursement is available. Please note that Durable is unable to provide insurance paperwork or assist with claim submission.
Can I get a refund if I choose not to get my lab work?
Yes. You may request a refund within 365 days of purchase, as long as you have not visited the lab and had your blood drawn.
Can I use a coupon when purchasing my lab test?
At this time, promotions and coupons cannot be applied to lab testing. Lab pricing reflects the cost of clinical testing and processing, and discounts are not available for these services. However, you can redeem Durable REWARDS points at checkout, and when you purchase a lab order, you’ll earn additional points.
Is this blood test for adults only?
Durable lab testing is intended for adults 18 years and older. Testing for individuals under 18 is only recommended when directed by a qualified healthcare provider.*
