Portable hormone testing • Aegeus Inc.

Your hormones.
Your sample.
Closer answers.

We’re developing a fingerstick testing platform designed to measure hormones where you are—without mailing your sample to a lab.

01 / The difference

Home collection is a start.
Local testing is our goal.

Collecting blood at home and analyzing it at home are different experiences. PrimalCheck aims to bring the analysis to the sample.

What changesHome collection with laboratory processing.Designed to remove shipping and support convenient repeat monitoring.

Comparison concerns the testing workflow, not analytical accuracy or clinical superiority. Source: LetsGetChecked: How it works ↗. Timelines vary by test and service. PrimalCheck features are development goals.

02 / The proposed workflow

One sample.
A simpler path to insight.

Three connected steps. No outbound sample shipment in the intended process.

01 — COLLECT

Start with a fingerstick.

Apply a capillary blood sample to a purpose-built test cartridge. Sample volume and collection instructions will be established during development.

02 — ANALYZE

Let the reader do the work.

The proposed reader measures the cartridge’s assay signals to produce quantitative hormone results. Each assay will need performance validation.

03 — CONNECT

See the bigger picture.

The connected app is intended to organize results over time, giving users and their clinicians a clearer record to discuss.

03 / Explore the app concept

A result is a moment.
A trend tells you more.

Imagine a single place to review measurements and keep collection context alongside them. Explore these fictional views of the proposed app.

Demonstration only. The example contains no patient data and does not provide medical interpretation.

04 / Built on evidence

A clear vision.
A rigorous development path.

Convenience only matters if results can be trusted. The platform’s intended capabilities must be demonstrated through development and validation.

Starting with hormone monitoring.

Our initial focus is understanding the needs of hormone clinics and people who undergo repeat testing. We’re seeking clinical and development partners to help shape a useful, measurable first product.

Test menu, accuracy, sample requirements, turnaround time, pricing, and intended use remain to be finalized. Proposed applications extend to women’s hormone health and other areas of endocrine monitoring as the platform develops.

  1. 01Define the initial clinical use case and performance requirements.
  2. 02Develop and evaluate the assay, cartridge, reader, and app.
  3. 03Compare performance against appropriate laboratory methods.
  4. 04Pursue applicable regulatory review before commercial clinical use.
Build the next step with us

Help shape a more useful test.

We’re interested in conversations with hormone clinicians, assay and device developers, research collaborators, and investors who understand diagnostics.

A few practical answers
Can I buy or use PrimalCheck today?

No. PrimalCheck is in development. The device render and app views on this website illustrate the proposed experience; they are not a commercially available product.

Does PrimalCheck claim to be more accurate than laboratory testing?

No. This concept describes an intended workflow advantage. Analytical performance and clinical suitability will require validation against appropriate reference methods.

Will every proposed hormone be included at launch?

The initial test menu has not been finalized. Each analyte has distinct technical requirements, and inclusion will depend on feasibility, validation, and the intended regulatory pathway.
