A member asked:
Are saliva hormone tests accurate? or is a blood test better? for e2, pg, t, ds, and c1

Testing: I have listened to lectures advocating either. I am aware of clinics that do serum levels and those that do saliva. Both types of testing can be accurate and have been used effectively by practitioners who deliver hormone replacement therapy.
