What does the Progesterone (Dried Urine, GCMS) test measure?

Progesterone (Dried Urine, GCMS) (P₄) is a clinical biomarker used in thyroid-endocrine assessment. GCMS measures urinary progesterone metabolites (predominantly pregnanediol-3-glucuronide), which integrate corpus luteum output over hours. It is measured in 1 laboratory test on BiomarkersLabs.com.

What is Progesterone (Dried Urine, GCMS)?

GCMS measures urinary progesterone metabolites (predominantly pregnanediol-3-glucuronide), which integrate corpus luteum output over hours. Creatinine normalisation adjusts for hydration.

Why is Progesterone (Dried Urine, GCMS) measured?

Dried urine progesterone reflects luteal adequacy, helps confirm ovulation, and assesses progesterone therapy absorption and metabolism in a way that avoids the venous-draw timing challenges of serum measurement.
