Male Hormone Blood Test

The Male Hormone Blood Test, available through Medichecks, quantifies the levels of male and adrenal hormones in an individual's blood. This includes hormones that are influential in sex drive, mood, muscle mass, and energy. To collect the sample, individuals have the option to use a provided kit for a finger-prick blood sample at home or have their venous blood sample taken by a nurse either at a clinic or during a home visit. This test examines a mix of hormones and proteins including testosterone (the main male sex hormone), DHEA sulphate (a precursor to testosterone), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinising hormone (LH), prolactin and oestradiol. It also offers an estimation of free testosterone in relation to total testosterone, SHBG, albumin, and the free androgen index.
