My Hormone IQ was created to challenge a broken system – one that relies on outdated tools and limited data, offering only a snapshot of a highly complex, ever-changing system.
Hormone health is dynamic – yet, the approach to understanding it has remained static.
My Hormone IQ exists for you, the individual, to uncover and learn about your unique hormone story. We provide you with the data and solutions that address your symptoms (not a quick fix solution that may address only one symptom but ignores the root cause of your imbalance).
With over 260 possible hormone imbalance patterns in women and 90 in men, it’s nearly impossible to know what’s truly going on without deeper insight. That’s what My Hormone IQ was built for — to help you uncover the root cause of your imbalance and take meaningful action toward real balance.
Start with the free quiz
In just a few minutes, you’ll learn if hormone imbalances may be at the root of your symptoms or why you’re not feeling your best. Your results are instant and personalized.
Get tailored support right away
Your quiz answers give us a first glimpse into your hormones and where support is needed. From here, you can choose to treat this initial understanding of your hormonal imbalance immediately, or take a deeper dive for a more detailed and comprehensive look at your specific imbalance.
Expert guidance every step
You’re not alone in this process. Our hormone specialist team is here to answer your questions, interpret your results, and guide you with confidence. With over 25 years of experience helping people restore balance, Dr. Ingrid Maes leads the way in supporting your hormone health journey.
Blood tests are valuable for measuring hormone levels—but they only tell part of the story. A standard blood draw provides just a snapshot of a single moment in time. Because hormones naturally rise and fall throughout the day—especially cortisol—those fluctuations are often missed.
Even more importantly, blood work does not reveal how your body is actually processing and clearing hormones like estrogen or testosterone. The way your system breaks down these hormones can directly affect symptoms such as fatigue, mood swings, weight changes, and even long-term risks related to breast or prostate health.
To truly understand your hormones, you need to look beyond what’s circulating in your blood—it’s about how your body is processing, balancing, and clearing them.
Hormones influence nearly every major process in the body—metabolism, sleep, energy, reproductive health, and more. Even minor imbalances can have ripple effects throughout your entire system. Yet conventional testing captures only a moment in time, missing the bigger picture.
No. All genders are affected by hormone health. Regardless of age or lifestyle, everyone has hormones that can be influenced by everyday stressors and disruptors. My Hormone IQ is helpful for both women and men. For women, it can provide insight into cycle changes, PMS, fertility, and menopause. For men, it’s often used to look at testosterone, DHEA, and cortisol levels, along with how the body is breaking down and processing those hormones. Whether you’re dealing with fatigue, mood swings, weight changes, or simply want a clearer picture of your hormone health, My Hormone IQ can reveal insights that a standard blood test might miss.
Our platform has identified 262 possible female hormonal pattern imbalances, 96 different male hormonal imbalances, and 14 adrenal hormone imbalances that can affect both men and women. My Hormone IQ is not just for females—hormone imbalance affects all genders.
No. With My Hormone IQ, you don’t just get test results—you get a roadmap. Our approach turns complex hormone science into practical guidance, helping you and your healthcare team focus on the right steps forward.
Hormone health is incredibly complex, with countless possible patterns of imbalance that can be difficult for doctors and practitioners to fully differentiate. Sorting through these patterns on their own can take significant time and often leaves patients with partial answers. My Hormone IQ’s unique algorithm simplifies this process—removing the guesswork and bringing clarity to your individual hormone story.
Anyone can benefit from understanding their hormones—there’s no strict age limit. Hormone shifts often begin earlier than most people realize. If you notice recurring symptoms with your menstrual cycle, monitoring your hormones can provide valuable insight.
For young women starting birth control, tracking hormones is especially important to see how contraceptives may influence balance and long-term health. My Hormone IQ can also be helpful for young adults experiencing fatigue, acne, cycle changes, or fertility questions, as well as for men and women in midlife dealing with stress, weight changes, or menopause/andropause.
Even later in life, monitoring hormones can play a key role in supporting energy, bone health, mood, and overall quality of life.
We’ve adapted an advanced medical platform, originally built for healthcare professionals to interpret complex hormone test data, and simplified it so consumers can easily understand their hormones and identify the root causes of any hormone dysfunction. (The platform)
This one-of-a-kind platform has identified 262 possible female hormonal pattern imbalances, and 96 different male hormonal imbalances. It has also identified 14 adrenal hormone imbalances that can affect both men and women. With this many hormonal pattern imbalances to decipher, it can be very difficult for doctors and practitioners to differentiate all these patterns accurately.
But My Hormone IQ simplified approach takes the guessing out and brings certainty to the individual’s hormone story. From there, our system provides us with information that allows us to create personalized support with diet, lifestyle, targeted supplement, and when necessary, hormone replacements.
When your body makes a hormone, it acts like a messenger, telling your cells what to do. Once that message is delivered, the hormone doesn’t just stay in your system – your body breaks it down into new substances called hormone metabolites. These metabolites are basically the “leftovers” of hormones after they’ve done their job. By looking at hormone metabolites, we can learn how well your body is using, processing and clearing out hormones, giving us much deeper insights around your hormones rather than just measuring the hormone itself.
The DUTCH test specifically analyzes hormone metabolites, not just the hormones themselves. This reveals important information and insights that standard blood tests, which only measure circulating hormone levels, can miss.
