Cortisol saliva test

[Natalie55]

Morning

I would like to do cortisol saliva test by Regenerus lab.

Do you think its ok? Iam in Uk and when I checked on their website, the samples are posted to the lab in US.

Thank you 😊

I use Regenerus, they are fine. If you used Genova Diagnostics I think theirs go to the US as well. You're better off using either of those two companies as they test cortisol plus DHEA, nobody else seems to do that and both are needed for proper interpretation.

Thank you very much

You're welcome

I have a Regenerus kit here waiting for me to do. It's slightly different from last time in that it now comes in a polystyrene box and they include details of returning it via UPS at a cost to you of £9.50. I have just contacted them because last time I used Royal Mail and it is still fine to use RM rather than UPS.

With Royal Mail it would go as a small parcel and if sent 1st Class "signed for" would cost £4.40.

They confirmed that if you decide not to use UPS just cross out the charge they put on for that and send the £78 for the test only (I'm sending a cheque).
