Part 1 : prepping the collection

As a disabled veteran, getting consistent hormone labs through the VA hasn’t always been easy. This year I decided to take ownership of my health instead of guessing.

I’m using the Rythm at-home monthly blood test kit. It’s painless, done completely at home, and takes about 5–10 minutes. I was able to do it this morning at 6am before taking the babies to day care! You collect a small sample (about 10x less blood than traditional lab draws), seal it up in the prepaid mailer, and ship it out with priority overnight return. Results come back in 48–72 hours through a private, HIPAA-compliant dashboard with personalized insights.

Each monthly panel tracks comprehensive biomarkers for whole-body health including testosterone and hormone markers, thyroid function, metabolic health, heart health, vitamin levels, and more — all in one test. It’s CLIA-certified, CAP-accredited, and handled in-house (no third-party labs).

It’s $79 per month, HSA/FSA eligible, and you can skip or cancel anytime.

I’m genuinely grateful to for hooking me up and for supporting veterans. If you’re serious about optimizing your health, measure it. No more guessing. Just data.
