Today I received the result of my saliva test and at first I was a bit confused because I didn't expect this result.

The test was done in luteal phase, one week after ovulation.

Cortisol (saliva morning) 10906 pg/ml
Range: 1800 - 14500 pg/ml

DHEA (saliva) 105 pg/ml
Range: 140 - 570 pg/ml

Estradiol (saliva) 2,6 pg/ml
Luteal phase: 0,8 - 10,8 pg/ml

Estriol (saliva) 12,1 pg/ml
Range: 2,70 - 9,05 pg/ml (might be higher in the early morning hours / I did the test at 6 am)

Progesterone (saliva) 127 pg/ml
Luteal phase: 100 - 450 pg/ml

Free Testosterone (Saliva) 7,9 pg/ml
Range: 5,0 - 49,0 pg/ml

Lotus gave me some useful informations already (via PM).
I may try Maca to balance my hormones but need to do further research (if somebody has useful informations about Maca, then pls let me know).

Just wanted to share my results with you guys.

Hey Peggy,

Can you tell from your results if you are estrogen or progesterone dominant?

Well that's difficult to say. As per Dr. John Lee the ratio Estradiolrogesteron should be 1:200. But in my opinion thats too much. Because considering my Estradiol which was 2,6 pg/ml my Progesterone should be 520 pg/ml which is more than the upper range of the lab. On some websites I read that the ratio should be at least 1:80. So my P should have been at least 208. If I calculate my ratio it is 1:49 which is not enough, so yes I would say I am E dominant even though my Estradiol is quite low but my P is even lower.

I can understand now, thanks peggy.
