DLMO, Dim Light Melatonin ONSET Test, 7 or 9 Sample

$179.00

*Currently Unavailable in New York State*

Bedtime Sampling – Do you know when your body wants to go to sleep? Many of us work against our body’s natural sleep cycle, also known as a “circadian rhythm”. However, this simple circadian phase test can reveal the exact timing of your body’s natural circadian rhythm using saliva to determine your Dim Light Melatonin Onset (DLMO).

The Salimetrics Circadian Phase Assessment Kit for Dim Light Melatonin Onset (DLMO test) offers an all-inclusive, easy and accurate way to measure your circadian phase through salivary melatonin testing in the convenience of your own home or at a sleep facility, without the need for a blood draw or overnight polysomnography. This simply requires the collection of 7 or 9 timed saliva samples over one evening. Once samples are self-collected, you will freeze them in our cold-chain managed shipping flask, and then use the pre-paid return shipper to send your samples to Salimetrics’ CLIA-Certified testing facility. Results are reported directly to your sleep specialist (if provided) or back to you through a secure, HIPAA compliant results portal within 7-14 business days. Results can then be used as the next step towards treatment for a better night’s sleep.

Description

According to the National Institutes of Health, 50 to 70 million Americans live with chronic sleep disorders or recurring sleep problems. A National Sleep Foundation poll also found that 70% of Americans report frequent sleep disturbances. Yet many of these problems remain undiagnosed and untreated, largely due to the inconvenience, cost, and discomfort of traditional sleep studies.

The DLMO (Dim Light Melatonin Onset) test offers a simpler, non-invasive alternative. By measuring the timing of your body’s melatonin production, this test helps pinpoint circadian rhythm disorders that might be affecting your sleep.

When sleep disorders are correctly diagnosed and managed, specialists report that 85–90% of patients experience meaningful improvements in their sleep quality. The DLMO test can be an important first step in that process—providing clarity and guiding treatment in a way that’s more accessible and less disruptive than conventional methods.
