Specimen: 5 easy-to-collect dried urine samples collected on filter paper devices.
Results: Average processing time 10-14 business days

Patient Instructions: Do not take oral DHEA 48 hours before, or any estrogen or pregnenolone 72 hours before, your first collection. Do not skip doses of birth control for this test unless instructed by your practitioner. Any other hormones taken at night (including oral progesterone) should be taken after the bedtime sample.
