Hormone Testing Brisbane – Get Clarity on Your Hormonal Health
At Brisbane Livewell Clinic, we offer professional Hormone Testing services patients around Australia who want to better understand their hormonal profile. Our Naturopaths and Nutritionists at our Brisbane Hormone Clinic use evidence-based pathology tests and functional testing to help identify imbalances and create targeted Wellness Plans to help their patients overcome their health challenges.
Hormonal health plays a central role in fatigue, weight changes, fertility, sleep, mood, skin, stress, and metabolic function. We work with patients experiencing symptoms of hormonal disruption across a number of different areas, and our Brisbane Hormone Clinic offers testing options that we believe provide deeper insights than standard blood tests alone.
Why Choose Brisbane Livewell Clinic for Hormone Testing?
There are a number of reasons to choose our Brisbane Hormone Clinic to improve your hormone health, including:
Functional and standard pathology testing options
Access to salivary, urinary, blood and Dutch testing panels
Practitioners with clinical experience in hormonal symptoms and cycle mapping
Testing may assist in identifying adrenal, thyroid, oestrogen, progesterone or testosterone imbalances
Support plans available for perimenopause, menopause (male and female), PCOS, thyroid irregularities, PMS, fatigue and stress
Is This the Right Hormone Test for You?
Our Naturopaths can advise whether hormone testing is appropriate for your current symptoms and goals. If you’re not sure whether you should purchase a Test from our Hormone Testing Clinic, book an Initial Naturopath Consultation and ask your Naturopath what they suggest.
During your initial consultation, we will determine if a DUTCH test, saliva panel, thyroid screen or other form of hormone testing is the best fit to support your health.
If you’re unsure what type of testing is needed, a Full Health Review appointment provides a complete evaluation. From there, your Practitioner will recommend the most clinically useful tests based on your presentation, budget and history.
What Is the DUTCH Test?
The DUTCH test (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones) is one of the most advanced hormone testing options available. It provides a detailed look at sex and adrenal hormones, including including oestrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and cortisol, along with their metabolites. This allows us to assess not only levels but how well your body is processing these hormones.
Unlike standard testing, DUTCH testing also includes:
A full diurnal cortisol profile
Melatonin assessment
Clear mapping of hormone pathways
Specific markers for hormone metabolism
Additional insight into symptoms related to fatigue, PMS, menopause, mood and stress
DUTCH testing is suitable for both women and men. Women can experience hormone imbalances at any stage of life, not just during perimenopause and menopause. Understanding what is going on in your body is liberating for many of our patients.
Men may also benefit from hormone assessment, particularly in relation to energy, weight gain, and testosterone levels.
This method is especially useful for patient using hormone replacement therapy, including oral progesterone and vaginal hormone creams. Unique extraction methods allow for accurate monitoring of these delivery types.
Sample collection is simple, patients collect four or five urine samples across a 24-hour period. Our Naturopaths will then interpret the results in the context of your broader health and provided recommended ways forward. These may include the patient taking liquid herbs or practitioner-only supplements to begin healing hormone imbalances.

In Our Experience
In the Experience of Our Practitioners
Many people are told their blood results are “normal” despite ongoing fatigue, weight gain, anxiety or cycle irregularities. Advanced hormone testing can reveal imbalances that help guide more effective care.
“We often see clients who’ve been dismissed despite real hormonal symptoms. Comprehensive testing gives us a clearer clinical picture — and patients feel heard.”
— Brisbane Livewell Clinic Naturopath
In the Experience of Our Patients
Clients often say that testing gave them answers that had been missing for years. They appreciate the clarity it brings, and the support that follows.
“After years of feeling flat, I finally have proof that something’s off. Now I’ve got a plan that makes sense — not just another supplement.”
— Jasmine, Morningside – Patient
