DUTCH testing and oestrogen metabolism
Over the next few blog posts, we are going to shine a light on some of the key clinical insights we can get from the tests we offer. DUTCH testing for example, can be invaluable in getting to the root cause of symptoms and in helping to put the most appropriate support protocol in place. Even during the covi19 pandemic these tests are still available, and we are very much still available via remote consultation. We can help you interpret the results and put a plan in place.
