Optimal range: 12.3 - 50.1 ng/mg CR
5a-Androstanediol is a testosterone metabolite that is more androgenic than b-Androstanediol. It is metabolized via the 5-alpha metabolic pathway (= increased 5α-reductase activity). In contrast, the 5-beta metabolism makes androgens less potent.
Increased 5a-reductase activity may be accompanied by clinical signs of androgenicity (excess facial hair growth, scalp hair loss, acne, irritability, oily skin, prostate issues in men...etc).

5-HIAA is the primary metabolite of serotonin, a chemical substance (neurotransmitter) that transmits messages between nerve cells. After it is used by the body, serotonin is broken down in the liver, and its metabolites, including 5-HIAA, are excreted in the urine.

5-HIAA is the primary metabolite of serotonin, a chemical substance (neurotransmitter) that transmits messages between nerve cells. After it is used by the body, serotonin is broken down in the liver, and its metabolites, including 5-HIAA, are excreted in the urine.
Optimal range: 0 - 15 mg/24 hr
5-Hydroxyindolacetic acid (5-HIAA) is an important chemical compound in the medical and biochemical fields, acting as a primary interest for its role as a metabolite in the human body. Essentially, it's what remains after serotonin, a key neurotransmitter responsible for regulating mood, appetite, and sleep among other functions, is broken down. The body converts serotonin into 5-HIAA, which is then excreted in the urine.
Optimal range: 1.17 - 8.06 ug/mg creatinine
5-Hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5HIAA) is a breakdown product of serotonin that is excreted in the urine. Serotonin is a hormone found at high levels in many body tissues. Serotonin and 5HIAA are produced in excess amounts by carcinoid tumors, and levels of these substances may be measured in the urine to test for carcinoid tumors.
Optimal range: 1.6 - 9.8 mcg/mg creatinine

A metabolite produced by Aspergillus and possibly other fungal species in the GI tract.
Optimal range: 0 - 18 mmol/mol creatinine
A metabolite produced by Aspergillus and possibly other fungal species in the GI tract.
Optimal range: 0 - 28 mmol/mol creatinine
A metabolite produced by Aspergillus and possibly other fungal species in the GI tract. Prescription or natural antifungals, along with high-potency, multi-strain probiotics, may reduce overgrowth levels.
Optimal range: 0 - 13.4 mmol/mol
5-Hydroxymethyl-furoic Acid is a naturally occurring human urinary metabolite, a nematicide, a bacterial xenobiotic metabolite and a fungal metabolite. It is a metabolite produced by Aspergillus and possibly other fungal species in the GI tract. Consider a Gut zoomer or fungal antibodies test in order to determine the root cause. It was first identified in the urine of a leukemic patient who was excreting an abnormal amount of its glycine derivative. Multi-strain probiotics can be supplemented to improve the condition.
