Salivary assessments of hormone levels are inaccurate and do not correlate with levels determined from serum Women who received progesterone patch had widely varied salivary levels of progesterone compared with those who received placebo patch, and these varying levels did not correspond to serum levels Salivary levels of all hormones seem to vary greatly on the basis of foods, herbs, and spices consumed prior to sampling Davis SR, Panjari M, Stanczyk FZ.
