The hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian (HPO) axis can be a complex challenge to decipher especially as those hormones change all the time. Patients present feeling “hormonal” with a variety of symptoms that range from PMS to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) all involving the hormones, estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and DHEA-S. This 6-week bootcamp will walk through the different sections of a DUTCH complete for a cycling female to understand the relationship between the androgens, estrogens, and progesterone and what to do when those key areas are imbalanced. Whether you’re new to female hormones or new to DUTCH testing, this course will help give you the foundation and confidence to properly support your patient’s ovarian hormones. Note: this bootcamp will not focus on menopausal women. That will be covered in a separate bootcamp.
Confidently order and understand the sex hormone pages for a DUTCH Complete as it relates to your patient.
Understand how the HPO system works and the stepwise pattern it takes to make (or not make) androgens, estrogens, and progesterone.
Identify imbalances in androgens, estrogens, and progesterone and how it relates to other systems in the body.
Become familiar with conventional methods of addressing hormones in the cycling female.
Learn a functional medicine approach to addressing androgens, estrogens and progesterone to be applied using the DUTCH Complete results

No, Rupa University does not offer degrees or any form of accreditations. Our mission is to provide affordable education by bringing in world class experts to teach about lab testing.
Most likely! Right now, the goal of Rupa is to offer a variety of bootcamps throughout the year to help you understand different topics and tests at a tactical level so you can immediately incorporate what you learn with your practice.
After you are signed up for the bootcamp and have created your account, you can login at app.rupauniversity.com!
As the live Q&A classes are not HIPAA compliant and not part of a medical visit, personal medical advice will not be discussed.
Every week during the bootcamp, there will be a 60min live Q&A webinar where you can ask questions in the chat.
The pre-recorded classes are a variety of lengths from 10 minutes to 60 minutes.
The live classes are always 60 minutes long.
It will be a mix. There will be more foundational level videos to help set the stage if you are newer and more advanced level clinical pearls, videos, or questions answered during the live Q&A sessions.
Yes! There will be a mix of foundational classes to help get you introduced to the topic up to more advanced clinical pearls and information that build on each other. The live class Q&A sessions will also be a mix of beginning to advanced information. The goal is to have everyone who goes through the bootcamp feeling more confident about ordering and understanding the test.
No! Feel free to sign-up and jump in to learn all about this lab and topic!
We do not — our mission with Rupa University is to bring in industry experts to create extremely high quality affordable education that centers around lab work. The goal of this education is to help practitioners deepen their understanding about the root cause of illness, and to provide actionable information that they can take into their practice.
Sadly no. There are many rules associated with CME credits that prevent us from teaching about actionable products (like protocols, tests and more) that are a core part of our live classes and bootcamps. Our education is designed to level up practitioners and give you actionable tools to quickly become more successful.
Yes! You will have access to all of the presentations and materials associated with a bootcamp for up to 12 months after the start date.

Protocols are often (but not always) discussed in our bootcamps. A core part of lifestyle medicine is treating the individual, having a “standard protocol” is not always the right approach but can often be a useful starting point for learning about a disease or condition. Both functional and conventional approaches will be covered such as supplements and medications commonly in use.
The live classes are a free hour long weekly webinar you can sign up for as a practitioner on the Rupa platform. They are generally quick introductions to a lab, topic, health concern, or research by an expert that varies every week.
The bootcamp is a paid 4-6 week in-depth training that involve pre-recorded videos and live Q&A classes to help you understand a particular topic and test much more in-depth from a practical and tactical point of view.
At this time, there are not additional discount codes that can be used outside of the Rupa University Bootcamp test code for qualified practitioners to use on themself.
Yes, absolutely! There will be linked videos all about Rupa plus, you can always sign up for a free live demonstration with an onboarding manager on how to use the Rupa platform.
