Urine Metabolite Testing

Meaning

Urine Metabolite Testing is a diagnostic methodology that involves the non-invasive collection and subsequent quantification of the inactive end-products, or metabolites, of various hormonal and biochemical pathways excreted in the urine. This comprehensive analysis provides a crucial functional assessment of steroid hormone production, the efficiency of detoxification pathways, and the overall neuroendocrine balance over a 24-hour period. It is particularly valuable for evaluating hormone clearance and metabolic risk.
