What can I do if I'm having trouble producing enough saliva for my Saliva Hormones test?

If you have difficulty making enough saliva for your Saliva Hormones test, consider the following tips. Stay well hydrated. Apply a warm compress to cheeks. Gently massage your cheeks in the area in front of your earlobe. Run a finger from under the jaw towards the area under the chin. Gently gnaw or chew on your tongue. Think about something sour like your favorite sour candy or lemons. Think about what you ate last or are going to eat next, imagining the smells, tastes and textures. Imagine you just finished brushing your teeth and need to spit out the toothpaste. Smell your favorite hot, aromatic food (e.g. the smell of fresh cookies out of the oven make most people salivate).
