FAQ
What conditions can this panel detect? This comprehensive panel screens for diabetes, cardiovascular disease, kidney dysfunction, liver problems, hormonal imbalances, prostate issues, and vitamin D deficiency.
Do I need to fast before testing? Yes, fasting for 8 hours is required for accurate glucose and lipid measurements. Continue normal hydration and regular medications unless advised otherwise.
How accurate is PSA testing for prostate cancer? PSA testing identifies early-stage prostate cancer approximately 75% of the time, making it a valuable screening tool for men over 50 (Mayo Clinic 2024).
Can I share results with my doctor? Yes, Walk-In Lab provides secure result sharing and you can fax your results directly to your healthcare provider from your patient portal.
What if my results are abnormal? Abnormal results should prompt consultation with a healthcare provider for confirmation, additional testing, and treatment planning as needed.
How often should I repeat this testing? Annual testing is recommended for healthy men over 40, with more frequent monitoring for those with identified risk factors or existing conditions.
More Details
What is the purpose of this test?
The Health Check Blood and Urine Test Panel for Men provides comprehensive health assessment through eight critical tests: Complete Blood Count with Differential, Comprehensive Metabolic Panel, Lipid Profile, PSA, Complete Urinalysis, Free and Total Testosterone, DHEA Sulfate, and Vitamin D 25-hydroxy. This panel evaluates cardiovascular health, kidney and liver function, blood sugar regulation, hormonal balance, and prostate health to detect potential issues before symptoms develop (Walk-In Lab 2024).
Who would benefit from this test?
Men over 35 benefit most from this comprehensive assessment, particularly those with family histories of diabetes, heart disease, or prostate cancer. Individuals experiencing unexplained fatigue, mood changes, or energy decline should consider this panel to evaluate hormonal status. The testing is especially valuable for preventive care and early detection of common male health issues (CDC 2024).
When should I order a Health Check Blood and Urine Test Panel, Men?
Annual screening is recommended for men over 40, or earlier for those with risk factors like family history or existing health concerns. Schedule testing during morning hours to minimize fasting duration. Fast for 8 hours before blood collection and avoid alcohol 24 hours prior to ensure accurate glucose and lipid measurements.
How do I interpret the results?
Results include age and gender-specific reference ranges for each biomarker. Here's how to understand key measurements:
Glucose (fasting):
- Normal Range: 70-100 mg/dL
- Abnormal Results: Pre-diabetes (100-125) or diabetes (≥126)
Total Cholesterol:
- Normal Range: <200 mg/dL
- Abnormal Results: Cardiovascular risk increases above 240 mg/dL
PSA:
- Normal Range: <4.0 ng/mL
- Abnormal Results: Elevated levels may suggest prostate issues
Total Testosterone:
- Normal Range: 300-1000 ng/dL
- Abnormal Results: Low levels may explain fatigue or mood changes
Vitamin D:
- Normal Range: 30-100 ng/mL
- Abnormal Results: Deficiency affects bone health and immunity
Consultation with healthcare providers is essential for interpreting borderline or abnormal values within your individual health context.
Disclaimer: Reference ranges may vary by laboratory. Listed ranges are general guidelines and may differ from those used by the performing lab. Always consult your healthcare provider for interpretation.
Pre-test preparation
Fast for 8 hours before blood collection to ensure accurate glucose and lipid measurements. Maintain normal hydration and continue regular medications unless specifically advised otherwise by your healthcare provider. Avoid alcohol consumption 24 hours prior to testing. Schedule your appointment for morning hours when possible to minimize fasting duration and collect urine midstream sample as directed.
How often should I get tested?
- Healthy men under 40: Every 2-3 years
- Men over 40 with no risk factors: Annually
- Family history of diabetes/heart disease: Annually or as recommended
- Existing conditions (pre-diabetes, high cholesterol): Every 6 months
- Abnormal previous results: As directed by healthcare provider
Why early detection matters
Early detection enables preventive interventions before clinical symptoms develop. With 38.4 million Americans having diabetes and 8.7 million unaware of their condition, routine glucose screening can identify pre-diabetes when lifestyle changes are most effective (CDC 2024). Similarly, 11.4% of adults have high cholesterol, with highest prevalence among ages 40-59, making regular lipid screening crucial for cardiovascular prevention (National Center for Health Statistics 2020).
