Functional testing I offer
EndoMAP
The EndoMAP is NutriPATH’s most comprehensive at-home dried urine test, offering a full assessment of hormonal, metabolic and environmental factors that influence hormone health. It provides detailed insights into four major hormone pathways: oestrogen, androgens, progesterone and glucocorticoids - giving a complete picture of hormone production, metabolism and clearance. The panel also includes organic acids, endocrine disruptors and heavy metals, helping identify deeper drivers of hormonal imbalance.
Complete Microbiome Mapping
The Complete Microbiome Mapping Test (CMM) is a comprehensive stool analysis that assesses the balance, diversity and function of your gut microbiome. It identifies microbes that may drive inflammation, digestive symptoms or hormonal disruption, including pathogenic bacteria, opportunistic organisms, fungi, viruses and parasites. The panel also includes key immune and digestive markers, providing a full picture of gut health and its role in your overall wellbeing.
Pathology and Pathology Analysis
Pathology testing forms an essential foundation in women’s health, helping uncover the biochemical and physiological factors behind symptoms such as fatigue, irregular cycles, acne, PCOS patterns, thyroid issues, gut symptoms and mood changes. Comprehensive blood work - including full thyroid profiles, sex hormone panels, nutrient status, metabolic markers and inflammatory indicators — provides a clear, clinical overview of how the body is functioning. These tests assess thyroid health, iron and B-vitamin levels, glucose and insulin regulation, liver function, reproductive hormones and more.
I have completed pathology analysis training with The Institute for Integrative and Functional Pathology.
DUTCH Test
The DUTCH Complete is a comprehensive hormone test that measures sex hormones, adrenal hormones and their metabolites to reveal how your body is producing, using and clearing hormones. It also maps your daily free cortisol pattern, providing insight into your stress response and energy rhythm. In addition to hormones, the DUTCH Complete includes organic acid markers for nutrient status and inflammation, melatonin (6-OHMS) for sleep and circadian health, and 8-OHdG to assess oxidative stress. This test gives a full picture of hormone balance, stress physiology and metabolic function, allowing for a deeply personalised treatment plan.
Vaginal Microbiome Profile
The Vaginal Microbiome Profile is a specialised test that assesses the balance of bacteria, fungi and other microbes within the vaginal ecosystem. It identifies beneficial Lactobacillus species, detects overgrowths of pathogenic organisms linked to BV, yeast infections or trichomoniasis, and highlights patterns of imbalance that may contribute to symptoms such as discharge, itching, odour, discomfort or recurrent infections. By understanding the exact microbial makeup of the vaginal environment, this test helps pinpoint the root cause of symptoms and guides a targeted, effective treatment plan that supports long-term vaginal and reproductive health.
