Hormone Testing
The Comprehensive Thyroid Panel from Marek Diagnostics is an in-depth lab package designed to investigate the health of the thyroid gland. The thyroid is critical for various body functions, including metabolism, heart rate, cognitive function, and body weight regulation. This panel evaluates a broad spectrum of hormones, proteins, enzymes, and vitamins involved in thyroid health. It also assesses autoimmune activity markers. The specificity of this panel makes it highly suitable for those considering Thyroid Hormone Replacement Therapy. Tests included cover markers such as TSH, Free T3 and T4, Reverse T3, T3 Uptake, and Thyroxine Binding Globulin (TBG). Autoimmune markers like Thyroglobulin Antibody (tgAb) and Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody (TPOab) are also checked.

This advanced test aims to help women understand their risk of developing lifestyle-related diseases and make informed decisions towards enhancing their energy, immunity, and overall wellbeing. The sampling equipment is sent to the user's home and upon completion, the sample is sent back to the lab for analysis. Results are typically delivered within an estimated three working days.
The Female Hormone Blood Test provided by the healthcare provider allows clients to measure their female and thyroid hormone levels which impact fertility, mood, and energy. The procedure involves a blood sample in which 9 biomarkers are analyzed and results are projected in approximately 2 working days. This test can pinpoint hormonal imbalances or thyroid issues that may be causing symptoms like acne, weight gain, or fatigue. The test kit empowers users to monitor their hormone levels over time, tracking changes with age or the effects of hormone replacement therapy. The sample can be collected at home through a finger-prick method or at a clinic through venous blood sampling.
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.
The Advanced Male Hormone Test is a comprehensive evaluation of testosterone and related biomarkers, conducted by the health provider via an at-home finger-prick test. The test examines key hormones including Total Testosterone, Free Testosterone, SHBG (Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin), Albumin and the Free Androgen Index. These markers offer significant insights into the hormonal balance of the patient. The provider's procedure enables accurate calculations of Free Testosterone and Free Androgen Index by measuring Albumin levels. This test is recommended for men experiencing symptoms of testosterone deficiency or those with a family history of hormonal imbalances.
The Women's Hormone Panel provided by Effect Doctors is a comprehensive biochemical test aimed at investigating common female endocrine problems. The procedure involves an in-depth consultation wherein the clinician evaluates the patient's medical history and blood pressure before proceeding with specific blood tests. These tests are designed to assess the levels of several hormones, including FSH, LH, Oestradiol, and Prolactin, which play crucial roles in a woman's general and sexual health. Post-procedure, within 7-10 working days, the tested results become available for review.
Medicover performs a comprehensive examination of cycle-dependent female sex hormones. This test is primarily conducted to diagnose bleeding disorders and fertility issues. The procedure involves two blood draws, one on the third day of the menstrual cycle and another on the twenty-first day. The first blood draw focuses on hormones like AMH, FSH, LH, testosterone, prolactin, oestradiol, while the second blood draw measures progesterone levels. These hormone assessments give a holistic view of hormone homeostasis and organ function. It must be noted that women on contraceptives may not receive accurate results; thus, it is advised they take the test after discontinuing contraceptive use.
The Men’s Hormone Panel is a comprehensive biochemical test that investigates common male endocrine issues. The provider assesses patients' testosterone levels, which are crucial for general and sexual health in men. The process begins with a consultation with one of the provider's clinicians, who reviews the patient's medical history and blood pressure. Blood tests are then carried out to evaluate multiple biomarkers associated with testosterone production such as DHEA, FSH, LH, SHBG, and the Free Androgen Index. Results are typically received within 7-10 working days.
The procedure for laboratory testing of male sex hormones involves examining the functionality of male genitals and the hormone composition of the reproductive system. The healthcare provider, hereafter referred to as "the Provider", conducts a series of tests to evaluate hormones such as Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH), Luteinizing Hormone (LH), Testosterone, Prolactin, and Sex Hormone Binding Protein (SHBG). These hormones play key roles in male sexual function, fertility, muscle condition, mood regulation, and more. The Provider uses advanced diagnostic equipment in a controlled environment to ensure accurate results. The process also considers factors influencing hormone production like overweight, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, thyroid dysfunction, liver and kidney diseases
The Major Organ Function, Hormones, Thyroid, and Cardiometabolic Panel is a comprehensive diagnostic test conducted by the health provider. The test focuses on assessing the functionality of major organs, evaluating hormone and thyroid levels, and determining cardiometabolic health.
